Do you have everything you need to keep your workplace running smoothly? To help you out, we’ve created a handy checklist of must-have office supplies!
 
Paper
Paper is essential for everyday tasks—printing, copying, jotting notes, and more. Keep a well-stocked supply in different sizes and colours, so you’re always ready to handle big print runs, last-minute projects, and tight deadlines without missing a beat.
 
Stationery
Taking notes, signing documents, keeping track of meetings—stationery keeps it all running. With a well-stocked supply, you’ll save time searching and never be left empty-handed.
 
Ink and toner cartridges
An empty printer at the worst time is frustrating. Keep plenty of 
ink and toner cartridges on hand so you can print smoothly, without interruptions. 
 
TIP!
When it comes to ink and 
toner, follow the golden rule: One in the 
printer, one on the shelf. This way you'll always be prepared for maximum productivity!
 
The endless hunt for tape, sticky notes, and staples—how much easier would work be if these essentials were always within reach? Keep your office well-stocked and never waste time searching again!
 
Shipping materials
Whether it’s mail or packages for customers, stakeholders, or suppliers, keeping a well-stocked supply of shipping materials—like envelopes, address labels, and more—ensures everything arrives safely and on time. 
 
Storage and organisation tools
A tidy office is both more pleasant and more efficient. Use the right storage solutions to keep your documents and materials organised.
 
 
Cleaning supplies
A clean office creates a pleasant work environment. Keep your workspace clean and inviting with the right cleaning supplies, ensuring a healthier atmosphere, fewer distractions, and a professional impression for both employees and visitors. Read our blog ‘

Batteries
Many office essentials run on batteries. Think of computer mice, keyboards, clocks, remote controls, and calculators. Make sure you always have plenty of batteries on hand!
 
Catering supplies for your canteen
A quick break with a comforting treat can do wonders for focus and morale. Stock your office pantry with essentials like coffee, tea, soup, and light snacks so everyone has something to enjoy when they need a recharge. A well-timed sip or bite can turn a stressful moment into a productive one.
 
Your checklist may depend on your business needs
Every office is different, so your checklist should reflect your specific business needs. Consider the types of devices, processes, and daily workflows to ensure you stock the right supplies—whether it’s till roll, 
shipping supplies for retailers, or other stationery supplies—so your team stays productive and comfortable.
