Style and quality
“One recent change in the world of
notebooks has been that so-called
‘boutique’ notebooks, stylised and of the
highest quality, have risen in popularity,”
saidWharton. “Boutique notebooks appeal
to professionals who want to take them
to meetings and to carry them with the
confidence that they support the image
they want to portray. These are being
ExaClair is also renowned for its innovative, multi-
purpose, flexible and innovative filing solutions.
“There has been an increase in demand from business
professionals for quality filing products that suit an
increasingly mobile work and lifestyle,” saidWharton.
“Well-designed desktop storage products have seen
increased sales because they are convenient and save
space. ExaCompta modular filing systems, for instance,
suit modern offices because users can choose the
number of trays that meet their needs and they have a
compact, stylish design,” he added.
ExaClair’s Exactive filing range, which includes the
Exafolio
– a multipurpose portable file with expanding
document storage section, writing pad and zipped
pockets; the
Exawallet
– a zip up case containing note
pad and calculator; the
Exacard
– a smart business
card holder; the
Exashow
– a presentation ring binder;
and the
Harmonika
– a nine-part paperwork file with
elasticated closure, is both lightweight and durable.
Wharton said: “Exactive was designed with today’s
mobile business professional in mind and reduces the
number and weight of items that business people on the
move need to carry.”
Also available from ExaClair is its ubiquitous premium
Europa brand which includes a series of brightly coloured
Organisers, Elasticated Filing Boxes and Ring Binders,
alongside its proven family of Expanding Files, Document
Wallets and Portfolio Files.
Available in bright and bold colours, Europa
Organisers are manufactured from strong 500-micron
pressboard covers and feature recycled coloured board
tabs for ease of labelling. Hardwearing 25mm, 40mm
and 60mm Europa Elasticated Filing Boxes made from
500-micron [25mm] and 700-micron [40mm & 60mm]
pressboard provide extra durability. Each product
features elastic straps to keep contents in place and has
a large label on the spine for
easy identification of contents.
Plus, they come flat-packed
for better storage and
carriage, and are extremely
easy to assemble.
Upgraded 16mm
and 25mm Europa Ring
Binders come in a range
of standard colours and

700-micron mottled

he added.
While the Rhodia Business books
fall into the executive market and offer
innovative ways to capture thoughts,
ideas and plans, ExaClair has also
introduced its Rhodia Boutique range
to service this new ‘boutique’ market.
With premium, superfine, brushed vellum
paper as standard, as well as leatherette
or soft-touch plastic coated covers, these
products ooze premium quality.
Rhodia Boutique Unlimited notebooks
have elasticated closures and thick soft-
touch coated covers, which are double-
sided in Rhodia’s distinctive orange and
black design. They also have a glued spine,
micro-perforated sheets and a frame at
the top of each page for organised note
taking.
Rhodia Boutique’s Webnotepad,
available in A6 and A7 sizes, and
Webnotebook, in A5 and A7, both have
Italian leatherette covers, a stylish
embossed Rhodia logo, an inner pocket
for notes and cards, ribbon markers, luxury
90gsm ivory paper and elastic closures. The
products are available in ruled, blank and
dot-grid designs and are perfect for those
looking for an ultra-stylish product that
has been built to stand the test of time.
“Rhodiarama is a boutique range with
a difference,” saidWharton. “We’ve moved
away
from our usual
orange and black design, but still
retained the recognisable embossed logo
and quality leatherette cover. This range
comes in 15 bright and appealing colours
and the graphically printed front and
back pages stand out and appeal to the
boutique customer who wishes to make a
bold and artistic statement with his or her
stationery.
“R for Rhodia is another range that
appeals to this market,” he continued.
“These stapled notepads have the same
90gsm brushed vellum paper and soft-
coated cover that marks out the boutique
range as well as creasing on the cover
that allows users to conveniently fold
the cover over the back of the pad, whilst
still maintaining the notebook’s premium
appearance for the duration of its use.”
According toWharton, the market
is constantly changing but ExaClair is
changing with it. “Our products offer
customers flexibility and versatility:
we have a strong commitment
to sustainability and care for the
environment and we’re continuously
innovating to meet the needs of business
users everywhere.”
