The primary benefit to purchasing letter folding equipment is that it helps businesses save money and increase productivity. Instead of paying employees to fold thousands of documents by hand, you could use a letter folder and complete the job in a fraction of the time. Here's a typical example:
Your company needs to fold 5,000 letters for a monthly mailing. Without a letter folder, an employee making $10 per hour can neatly fold 350 to 450 documents per hour by hand. The job would take 12 to 14 hours, costing you $120 to $140 for the labor, not including benefits.
A basic letter folder costs about $1,500 and completes the job in less than two hours. In one year - 12 mailings - you would have made up the cost. You've also freed up 10 to 12 hours per month for your employee to perform other tasks.
Before you purchase a letter folder, it's important to think about your folding needs and how you expect the machine to perform.
