What is an Accordian Fold?

An accordion fold is made by bending each fold in the opposite direction of the previous fold, creating a pleated or accordion effect. The sheet expands and collapses like the bellows of an accordion, with each panel flipping the opposite way from the one before.

• Alternating folds: every crease reverses direction, producing a zig-zag of panels.
• Flexible panel count: can hold four, six, eight, or more equal panels.
• Opens fully flat: the whole piece pulls open in one motion for easy reading.
• Good for: brochures, foldout guides, and timelines.
