The Great Depression hit the country only a few years after founding the company. But the founder, Clyde A. Bowers, persevered by selling envelopes during the day and manufacturing them at night for delivery the next day. After making the deliveries, he would sell more envelopes to manufacture that night. Bowers Envelope Company survived the Depression through hard work and determination of its founder and employees.
Several years ago, Bowers introduced its Insertelope® web-style side seam envelope line. The envelope is cut, printed and folded all on one machine, eliminating additional, more costly steps. We offer Insertelope® as a better product than die-cut envelopes. Insertelopes stay flat (no warping), are of uniform size, have better inserting qualities, and are produced at a lower cost. We pass the benefits and savings directly to the customer.
Bowers Envelope has been experimenting with procedures to improve its on-line flexographic printing. The results have been very successful: the new process has resulted in better quality flexography without striations and little color variation, while not adding any additional cost to the manufacturing function.
Bowers Envelope can easily and efficiently warehouse and ship envelopes for customers all over the country and Canada. One phone call to Sales or Customer Service will put a customer's shipment on the truck within one day.
Bowers also offers quick turnaround (10 days or less) of custom and standard orders in quantities of 1,000 to 10 million.
Bowers' Sales and Customer Service Department is one of the best-trained and knowledgeable in the industry. Our salespeople work with the customers to provide information on current postal regulations, update them on new envelope-manufacturing equipment and procedures, and see customers' orders through to completion. Bowers' Customer Service Representatives work directly with Production to get orders produced and shipped on time and exactly the way our customers want them.
Our Production staff, from the supervisors to the stock handlers, make quality and accuracy their primary goal when manufacturing envelopes. Although Production strives for a high daily output goal, they always try to do it right the first time.
With the primary purpose in mind to satisfy the customer, the people of Bowers Envelope Company work as a team to provide customer satisfaction through products, on-time delivery, and a competitive price.
