Tossed in backpacks, stuffed in lockers, dragged between classroom and studio. Star Products constructs these folios from archival materials that protect finished work from creasing and moisture while withstanding the rough handling that comes with being sixteen and juggling three classes before lunch. Steel-reinforced webbed handles distribute weight evenly across your grip, making the walk from parking lot to critique room less of an ordeal when you're carrying mounted boards or multiple canvas panels.

The 2-inch expansion accommodates bulkier projects, thick presentation boards, layered mixed media work, or that sculpture maquette that somehow needs documenting in your 2D design class. Archival construction means your semester projects won't yellow or deteriorate if they sit in storage over summer break. Five color options help siblings keep their work separate or let you color-code portfolios by subject. Made in the U.S. from 30% post-consumer waste and fully recyclable when it finally wears out, which takes considerable time given how these hold up to student use.
