Posted by Claudine Botha on
When paper is piling up, deadlines are looming and patience levels are declining, it is time to look for some must-have supplies for a more streamlined workflow. Making sure workstations are stocked with the necessary supplies will go a long way to ensuring a more efficient way of working.
Take a look at some of our popular office supplies, which are guaranteed to reduce stress and increase productivity.
Banish Paper, Go Digital
Choosing the tried and trusted USB flash drive makes reducing the amount of paper that crosses a desk easy. Files will be organised, safe and secure. No more searching around for the email attachment that someone sent three weeks ago. They make a great gift for staff or clients and can be branded or personalised as required.
Cool and Light
The Light Breeze LED Ring Light Desk Fan is the perfect companion for any workspace. The powerful fan keeps you cool, while the built-in LED light provides the ideal lighting for any workstation. Eye strain and fatigue will be reduced as the bendable head will direct the light exactly where needed.
This handy desk fan is only 12 cm x 12 cm x 30 cm, so it will not crowd your workspace. It offers three fan speeds and three white light levels for optimum settings. No plug point is needed; just connect it with the supplied one-metre micro USB cable.
Multifunction At Its Best
Having an Altitude Grover 3-In-1 Stylus Ball Pen on hand is great when a new idea strikes. Colour code your notes with three different ink colours (black, blue and red) and instantly move over to your touchscreen device using the handy stylus tip.
Plan Ahead With The 2025 Diary
Keep organised and in control with the classic diary. While some people opt for digital diaries, most still prefer the paper variety. These 2025 diaries have space for scheduling appointments, tracking deadlines and setting goals. This physical schedule is often more conducive to visualising the workload than its digital counterpart. They are available in various colours, including black, navy, lime and red.
More Paper Stationery
The Okiyo Minna Paper Stationery Set provides a good old-fashioned way to brainstorm – with pen and paper! This delightful stationery set includes notepad, ruler, ball pen, pencils, sharpener, eraser and sticky notes in five different colours.
