An excellent source for custom Melinex envelopes is

  Atlantic Protective Pouches

I checked with Wally, and he can edge-seal Melinex as large as 60
inches wide x 100+ inches long. He works with 3, 4 and 5mil. He says
that to fabricate edge-sealed envelopes as large as the 42 x 67 inch
requested, and the turnaround time could be 6-8 weeks. I have
recently had envelopes in several different sizes made by Atlantic
Protective Pouches and they were absolutely perfect.
