Tips for Searching for Stationery Items on the Online Catalogue
With 9,000 stationery items on the catalogue with a range of descriptions and brands, including supplier’s own brands and our NCP products, we appreciate it is sometimes difficult to find the products you need.
We have listened to your feedback and understand the pain points when searching for stationery in our online catalogue. To help you, we have put together a list of the most commonly searched terminology for stationery items. Most items can be found by searching for the product name or a basic description rather than the brand name.
Here are a few examples:
| Brand Name/Common Terminology | Catalogue Description |
| Blu Tak | Adhesive putty |
| Biro | Ballpoint pen |
| Hole punch | Perforator |
| Post It Notes | Adhesive notes |
| Rubber | Eraser |
| Sellotape | Adhesive tape |
| String | Twine |
| Tipp Ex | Correction fluid |
| Velcro | Hook/loop |
