Scribble notes, record measurements, and make plans, even in wet and dirty environments—the sheets in these pads are coated to repel water, oil, mud, and grease. The paper meets ANSI/NISO Z39.48 standards for archival-grade paper, which means it’s acid-free and won’t yellow or deteriorate. Unlike those made with synthetic paper, these paper pads are also recyclable. They resist heat and won’t stretch, and they hold up to long-term storage.

Often used outdoors or in manufacturing plants, these paper pads won’t tear, stain, or buckle, and humidity won’t make them soggy. They’re bound with corrosion-resistant wire and protected by a flexible plastic cover. Use a pencil or any-angle ink pen while they’re wet, and a ball-point pen or permanent marker when they’re dry. Highlighters, gel pens, and fountain pens won’t work on this paper.

Take notes, make lists, or doodle. Made of high-quality materials, these notebooks resist wear and tear better than standard notebooks. A sewn binding keeps pages intact longer than glued or spiral-bound notebooks, and also lets pages lie flat for easy writing. With pages thicker than standard printer paper, ink won’t bleed through. The paper is acid free, which keeps pages from yellowing over time. When you’re done writing, an attached ribbon bookmark keeps your place and an elastic band keeps notebooks shut. Store documents in an expandable pocket.

These paper pads come double-bagged to keep out contaminants and meet Fed. Spec. Class 100 and ISO Class 5 clean room standards.
