Automail – Overprinting Envelopes for whatever your needs might be.

When you are spending the time and money to get your communication and marketing just right it must be effective. More importantly, you need it to be read by your prospects and customers.

On these pages you will find details of our services, stock envelopes and some samples of our work for Clients. Overprinting envelopes has traditionally been our primary service with a company history dating back to 1900 (FC Thacker Ltd), however in more recent times - relatively speaking - we have diversified by supplying the Laundry and Dry Cleaning sector with duplicate / triplicate Counter Ticket Books for over two decades.

Our bespoke stationery range is not just limited to printing envelopes or manufacturing envelopes - you might like to browse through our variety of Self Adhesive Labels or take a look at our Owners Risk Pads. It might be that you require a printed envelope or paper orientated item not listed in our pages; just let us know your requirements and we will do our very best to overprint or manufacture your item.


Below are a few things you might find useful if you’re not used to envelope terminology:

  • An A4 envelope is referred to as a C4 envelope
