New ideas
It is not always so easy to find something new to say about a range of products, after all a ring binder is a ring binder and although the materials might vary the basic design remains the same. It is the customisation that makes all the difference to the product and the general finish is of course most important whether it is a budget PVC or polypropylene binder or an expensive leather binder. So are there any new ideas in the world of ring binders? Probably not is the answer, although some ring binder manufacturers would probably hasten to disagree with that statement, but the fact is that no matter how many additional pockets, pen loops, zips, paper pads, CD holders or how much fancy stitching you put onto the binder it is still a ring binder. How much longer will ring binders be needed, after all aren’t we are all aiming for a paper less office? May be the time is approaching when we shall no longer need expensive plastic covers for our endless bits of paper and what will the manufacturers do then? It will be interesting to see if any new ideas emerge soon.
