An A5 hardcover notebook with a PU cover and 160 pages of 80 gsm paper, measuring 21.5 by 14.5 cm with a 1.5 cm spine. The cover is specifically suited to an embossed logo: the PU surface is smooth and consistent, so a blind or foil emboss presses in cleanly and holds its edges.

The hardcover construction keeps the book flat on a table and protects the pages in a bag, which is the difference between a notebook that survives a year of meetings and one that dog-ears in a month. Eighty gsm paper is heavy enough that ballpoint and gel ink do not show through to the reverse side.

This is the standard corporate notebook: conference and seminar packs, training courses, board and management meetings, and welcome kits for new employees. Consultancies, banks, universities and public bodies order it in volume because it looks appropriate in any professional setting and the branding is discreet rather than loud.

Available in black and blue. MerchRepublic embosses or prints your logo, can combine it with a pen into a set, and ships in bulk across the EU. Send us your artwork and quantity for a quotation.
