Stationery

The stationery here is divided into three main tasks: writing and correction, colour drawing and marking, and gluing. Choose the appropriate area before comparing series and sets.

For writing and correction

The ballpoint pens, pencils, erasers and correction products section is the starting point for basic writing instruments. It includes ballpoint pens from different lines, pencils, mechanical pencils and colour sets. Prepare a list by instrument type, desired colour and function required instead of comparing every offer solely by item count.

When replacing a familiar product, retain its exact name and version. If seeking an erasable pen or pencil with an eraser, check that the specific item is described as such. These designations distinguish products but are not a general feature of every product from the same brand or similar series.

For colouring, marking and drawing

The markers, felt-tip pens and drawing materials section includes fineliners, felt-tip pens, permanent markers and whiteboard markers. First identify the type required. Then compare the colour selection and tip description of the exact offer without inferring identical purposes from similar housings.

For colouring sets, check which tools are included. A mixed set and a set of one type of writing instrument are different purchases. If preparing materials for a shared workspace, separate the basic tools from colours and extras needed only for a particular task.

For bonding and assembly

Stationery adhesives form a separate section with different product types and packaging. Specify the material and task, then check the chosen adhesive's intended use. Do not assume identical applicability for every product sharing the general word “adhesive” or merely because it is placed among stationery supplies.

Finally, check the sales quantity for each item: individual product, blister pack or set. This must be considered separately from the tool type, colour and functional features. When reordering, the exact series is a more useful guide than the package design, which does not in itself determine the characteristics.

A BIC page is available for browsing by brand. If the workplace also requires maintenance materials, continue to household consumables. The list then remains divided by purpose and every purchase can be compared within its own group.
