Half Fold / Bi-Fold Brochure Printing
Our half fold brochures — also commonly called bi-fold brochures — are a timeless, versatile format designed for clear messaging, strong visuals, and professional presentation. Folded once down the center, this style opens like a book, making it ideal for storytelling, brand overviews, menus, programs, and sales presentations.
Whether customers search for bi-fold brochure printing, half fold marketing brochures, or simply folded brochures, this format remains one of the most widely used and effective printed marketing tools.
What Is a Half Fold (Bi-Fold) Brochure?
A half fold brochure is created by folding a flat sheet once in half, producing four clean panels — a front cover, back cover, and two interior panels. This layout offers more breathing room than a tri-fold and allows content to flow naturally from left to right, making it perfect for brand storytelling and structured presentations.
Because of its simplicity and flexibility, this format is often referred to interchangeably as a:
Bi-fold brochure, half fold brochure, folded sales brochure, corporate presentation brochure, or marketing booklet-style brochure.
Available Half Fold Brochure Sizes
Our half fold brochures are available in all of the most commonly requested sizes, including:
8.5 × 11 (folds to 5.5 × 8.5)
8.5 × 14 (folds to 7 × 8.5)
11 × 17 (folds to 8.5 × 11)
5.5 × 8.5 (folds to 4.25 × 5.5)
6 × 9 (folds to 4.5 × 6)
These sizes cover everything from compact handouts and menus to full-size corporate brochures and presentation pieces.
Why Choose a Half Fold Brochure?
The half fold layout is ideal when clarity and presentation matter more than squeezing information into small panels. With larger uninterrupted interior space, this format allows for:
- Cleaner layouts and stronger visual impact
- Better readability for longer copy
- More space for imagery and branding
- A natural, professional flow of information
That’s why half fold brochures are commonly used for corporate marketing, menus, event programs, product overviews, company profiles, and sales presentations.
