Binders to keep paperwork organized and accessible

Pore over paperwork and catalog client contracts easily with Quill's collection of binders. Featuring durable construction, these binders stand up to daily use in a busy office. Choose from a range of features to customize your binder collection and make it easy for staff to find critical documents throughout each workday.

Easy viewing panels

Versatile 3-ring, 2-ring, and zipper binders come with clear pockets on each exterior panel, so staff can clearly label folders according to document type, date, or client. The convenient openings on each pocket let users change out the labels, which means they can use and reuse the binders for a range of purposes.

Convenient sizing

The binders come in a variety of sizes for different paperwork and purposes. To organize daily reports, choose high-capacity 5-inch binders that feature generously sized rings and reinforced spines. Large pressboard binders can accommodate significant volumes of paperwork. Spine labels make it easy to locate specific office papers without opening the binder. For dedicated client files or quarterly paperwork, opt for smaller 1-inch or 2-inch binders to comfortably hold documents without taking up extra space on shelves. Many models fit into school backpacks, so students don't have to carry them separately on the way to class. 

Color code the office

Create a system of highly functional, brightly colored binders that allow you to color-code paperwork for easy identification. Choose red binders for problem accounts that need immediate attention or use green to sort completed work. Designate specific colors for individual staff members or departments by choosing packs with assorted hues. Get creative with binder colors using a document-sorting system the whole office can appreciate.

Binders provide versatility in storage

Available in sizes from 0.5 to 5 inches, binders accommodate paperwork ranging from 125 sheets to 1,000 sheets — two full reams of paper. White, black, dark blue, and other colors sort materials by department or by project, so employees can quickly grab the relevant file.

Back-mounted rings allow contents to lie flat, whether as loose-leafed documents or when placed in binder sheet protectors. This gives the binder a neater look. D-ring options protect papers from the wear and tear of frequent use, as well as making it easier to turn the pages in the binders. Concealed rivet construction makes them stronger, helping stand up to daily usage.

Many binders come with up to four stacked interior pockets, front and back, so employees can slide loose memos, notes, pictures, or customer orders into the folder for safekeeping. Clear external overlays or label holders allow for complete customization. Slip a cover sheet into the front pocket or add a table of contents or summary overview to the back. The PVC-free covers won't smear or lift ink or toner, so the contents remain fresh and undamaged.

Binder dividers keep things organized

Whether you choose five, eight, or more tabs for your dividers, the contents of the binders stay easily accessible. Most binder dividers contain between 20 and 30 percent post-consumer recycled materials, making them an eco-friendly choice for sorting paperwork. Many feature copper along the hole-punched edge for reinforcement, while others may have reinforcement on both sides of the divider. Use pockets in binder covers for CDs or various personal papers that require concealing. 

In addition to standard five- or eight-tab sets, dividers are available as pre-printed sets, including monthly divisions, table of contents, alphabet, and medical charting. Clear or multi-colored tabs may accommodate slide-in paper tabs, or the sets may include clear, press-on labels that give the appearance of printed titles. Others have write-on, erasable tabs.

Benefits of binder sheet protectors

Over time, unprotected paper tends to look tired, as folded corners, tears, fingerprints, spills, and stains take their toll. Binder sheet protectors prevent that kind of wear and help keep papers looking new. Most are made of archival-quality, acid-free polypropylene, which prevents documents from sticking to the binder. That way, documents look professional, and the sheet protectors prevent text from fading over a long-term period. Binders also make it easy to access a high volume of data when looking for specific details at work so that employees can keep up productivity.

Functionality aspects of binders

Fit binders anywhere 

Economical and sleek designs of most binders in the selection saves space in storage rooms, offices, and reception areas. Use file tab inserts to tag various household items and binder sections, so it's easy to find specific document pages. Besides providing for easy handling, smooth finishes and straight surfaces on binders also make them easy to stack onto each other without decreasing stability.
