Over the years, I have changed up my organization routine when new products are introduced to the line. I have fallen in love with write-on project folders, zip ‘n go expanding portfolios, and the expanding file with handles. But recently, I rediscovered an older organizational product – the deluxe vinyl project folder.
Why do you I like this item?

If you have been following this blog for some time, you will know that I tend to be a highly organized individual. In my family, there are seven children, including spouses, to buy for. So to alleviate some of the shopping stress, we do a grab bag. After we pick names, each person sends out their holiday wish list, and their “secret Santa” gets some or all of the items (we have a $100 limit).
It just so happened that this year, my husband and I each picked people who had quite lengthy lists. So to organize the lists and other gifts ideas, I used the write-on project folders – one of my favorite products! (more…)
In addition to our stock line of products, C-Line also has an entire custom order department. Yes, if there is something about a product, like a sheet protector, that you need made to your specific needs, we can help.
So for instance, say you need custom sheet protectors that are a special size, like 4 x 6 to accommodate a daily schedule book that your students use. You cannot find this size anywhere and you want to sell it in your school’s bookstore. Or, you want to sell a sheet protector that features a binding strip in the school’s colors with the school’s logo embossed on it, rather than that plain, white strip in our current products. What do you do?

How many times have you gone into a meeting and had papers passed out to all attendees? And then, after the meeting is over, many of the papers are left on the table? When creating a report, presentation, meeting handouts and documents of that type, it is sometimes difficult to make the information standout or truly convey just how important it is.
With the use of a report cover, not only does your data standout against papers that have simply been stapled or paper clipped together, but it also says to the reader, “Hey, I’m important here, so pay attention to me!“.
So, where to begin when selecting a report cover? You have a few options available, so choose the one that best meets your needs or preferences.

In many posts, I have told you all about the benefits of the write-on project folder, but did you know that a plain, colored project folder also exists? That’s right, these are the predecessors to the much-raved-about write-on version. Why do I love these, let me count the ways.
Have you been to an event and worn a fancy, highly decorated name badge and thought to yourself, “That must have taken a long time to do”? Or have you wanted to make those for your own event, but didn’t know where to start? C-Line is one step ahead with their printer template gallery.

Today is Recess at Work Day. Celebrate by putting down your sheet protectors, report cover and project folders, and picking up a jump rope, grabbing an ice cream cone or whatever you can think of to rediscover the enjoyment of your childhood.
That’s right, as a way to promote employee wellness and happiness, employers are setting aside time for employees to have a recess today. It can be anything from volunteering or community service to a walk in a nearby park. Anything to break up the normal routine of the workday. So, wherever you are, make sure to stop what you are doing for 30 minutes and enjoy a recess from work today.
And what is C-Line doing for Recess at Work Day? Well, we moved ours up a few weeks and combined it with our 60th anniversary celebration earlier this month! And yes, it was a blast!
Welcome to the newest series of blogs – My Favorite Product. Every month, you’ll find out the favorite products from the people who know them best, the C-Line employees. I know I’ve told you all about my favorite C-Line travel product, the newest “it” office accessory, or how sheet protectors with velcro® flaps are your best friend at meetings. But ever wonder what other people use their products for? Well, wonder no more….
The first person up is Judi Krumwiede, Vice President of Employee and Customer Relations. Unfortunately, she could not pick just one product, so she divided her two favorite items into categories – at the office and at home.

 Clip ‘N Go Report Covers were a great use for this report, as the color helped to call attention to the significance of the information contained inside. |
The other day, I needed to put together an impromptu status report on projects and events for C-Line’s 60th anniversary, which is Monday, June 1st! It was not a long report, just an overview of events we have done around the office – expenses, task completion dates, marketing plans through the end of the year, etc. And although the request was for quick overview, I still wanted it to look stylish for everyone. After all, this is a big event for the company, especially given the current economic climate. So, I looked no further that the Clip ‘n Go Report Cover.
Just how clean is your office? Do you regularly wipe down your desk, mouse, telephone? Use products specially formulated to help prevent the growth of stain causing bacteria? If not, can you imagine all the germs and bacteria crawling around on your desk right now? It is no wonder that studies have shown that the desktop is the germiest place in the office. I never gave the cleanliness of my desk much thought either, until I saw this video from Microban antimicrobial product protection that explains the benefits of products that use Microban protection, like antimicrobial protected sheet protectors. Did you see in the video how quickly bacteria can multiply? Yuck! But the video also shows how Microban protection helps to prevent the growth of stain causing bacteria, yeasts, molds, and fungi for the life of the product? Go Microban! (more…)
