CTP Stationery, one of South Africa's leading producers and providers of filing, organisational storage, diaries, scholastic and paper products, will now be carrying Tidy Files and SFS products.

From 1 August 2024, these two renowned brand names will join CTP Stationery's stable of popular brands, which include Flip File, Donau, Premier Stationery and Grafton Paper Products.

CTP Stationery will continue to service the existing Tidy Files and SFS dealer channels, while direct clients will be able to order these filing brands through the CTP Stationery dealer channel. CTP Stationery will not service any clients directly, only through dealer channels.

Rob Fedder, Caxton and CTP group executive, says there is a natural synergy between all the brands, so it made sense for them to be under one umbrella.

"Tidy Files is a well-established South African brand with a heritage spanning 46 years. Similarly, Flip File, Donau and Grafton are much-loved local brands with histories spanning 54 years, 35 years and 30 years respectively. These icons in our industry have been market leaders for decades, and it is only fitting that they now share a home, along with SFS, at CTP Stationery. This emboldens CTP Stationery's position as a producer and supplier of one of South Africa's most extensive ranges of high-quality filing, scholastic and paper products," Fedder explains.

Tidy Files and SFS are known for their lateral filing, top retrieval and archive filing systems.

The Flip File, Donau, Premier and Grafton brands collectively comprise lever arch files, ring binders, file archiving systems, document wallets, concertina files and ready sorters; plastic display files, executive files and punched plastic sleeves; scholastic books and labels; and coloured board and paper, board and paper pads, and index cards.

CTP Stationery produces the majority of its stationery products at its factory in Cape Town. It also manufactures a range of bespoke stationery products, and is the largest producer of custom-made diaries in South Africa.

CTP Stationery is part of the renowned Caxton and CTP Publishing Group, one of the largest publishers and printers of books, magazines and newspapers in the country.
