Premium Nevertear

I would like to introduce everyone to Xerox’s range of Premium Nevertear. This is the perfect solution for frequently handled documents and outdoor applications. Premium Nevertear is a new essential of the office paper range that consists of a matt white film made of polyester that can be printed using both mono and colour printers enabling a vibrant image that enhances any application from price lists and menus to clothing tags, signs and posters. It is durable, tear resistant and water resistant with a superb print quality.

The range comes in a variety of different thicknesses 95 micron, 120 micron, 145 micron, 195 micron, 270 micron and 350 micron, all available in A4, A3, SRA3 and iGen3.

Premium Nevertear is a strong and durable creative paper eliminating the need for lamination saving you both money and time. Duplex printing can be used in conjunction with an appropriate printer and all thicknesses are suitable for offset printing with no set up, costs or proofing needed.

From first hand experience I can see the benefits of Premium Nevertear, the 95 micron paper has a smooth, soft feel and is perfect for internal department and phone number lists, directions or notifications to customers and clients and announcements. The 270 micron paper has the same smooth feel but with outstanding rigidity which is perfect for menu’s, placemats, hotel door hangers and tourist guides.

Evolis Pebble 4 Colour ID Card Printer

Evolis Pebble 4 Colour ID Card Printer

I think every office needs a card printer, specifically the Evolis Pebble 4 Colour ID Card Printer. It is an innovative and dynamic idea, designed to cater for all your office solution needs. For example, the card printer can produce one off personalisation of plastic cards, single and double sided printing of badges, student ID’s, access badges, loyalty cards, business cards, payment cards and much more.

With an advanced printing engine, the Pebble 4 delivers high-definition solutions within seconds. The printer benefits from the latest encoding technologies of ISO or JIS2 magnetic tracks and a smart card with both contact and contactless (RFID). These encoding options can be combined to personalise multi featured cards.

The printer comes with a 100 card feeder but can also be used as an over the counter display with a manual feeding option for instant delivery to the customer. The compactness of the printer allows it to be integrated into any office.

The printer is very versatile, with colours to suit your environment; you have the choice of three covers – Fire Red, Jungle Green and Ocean Blue. (Ocean Blue cover is standard, with Fire Red and Jungle Green with a 5 -7 day lead time).
Evolis is a trusted name and all Pebble 4 printers come with a three year warranty as well as 12 months onsite cover. Print jobs are never lost and the recovery system automatically resends pending jobs.

The printer produces 150 cards an hour in colour and 1000 cards an hour in monochrome. It is also easy to replace the ribbons, a clamshell opening ensures that it is easy to change ribbons, clean the printer and adjust card thickness. The printer comes standard with a Windows driver, which monitors the function of the printer, this informs the user via their computer that they need to replace the ribbon or that the card feeder is empty etc.

Unibind

I would like to introduce everyone to a new and perhaps revolutionary form of book binding. I saw these products for the first time in June 2009 and could immediately see how they could be used for every kind of application at home and in the office.

There are many features and benefits of the Unibind binding machines throughout their products range. With an extensive range of finishes and colours to choose from, you are able to customise the products to your specific needs. The beauty of Unibind is that there is so much choice; the photobooks for example are perfect for personal photo albums, school yearbooks and portfolios.

The Photobooks are available in both landscape and portrait, with a choice of window as well as the option of A3, A4 and A5. Other applications that these books are perfect for are school ofsted reports, school leaver’s books, dissertations, sports day’s photos, scripts and plays, short stories, autograph books and much, much more!

The Steelbook is an essential product for usage as corporate diaries, reports, company presentations and handbooks. Other useful products are the Steelcrystal and Steelmat books, these have transparent front and back covers that are bound together and could hold a range of documents from reports to price lists.

You can also add a customised cover by using an offset printing service, transfer printing, a hotfoil option enabling you to add a company logo, a silkscreen printing service, the aforementioned windows, gold and silver corners to add that extra touch and on request special cover sizes and materials.

The technology of Unibind is amazingly user friendly. With affordable Resin Binding machines that can bind four documents at once, an affordable Wirebinder Machine for the Punch Steelbinding products and an affordable and easy to use Stapler for the Staple Steelbinding products, you can sit in the comfort of your own home or office and make professional looking documents in a matter of minutes.

The Resin Steelbinding machines are small and compact so that they can be easily stored away, the heating compartment will only warm up once a product is placed on it, giving you piece of mind that safety will not be compromised. By reheating your document you can also edit and add pages. The possibilities are endless!

Keeping The Workplace Clean

The global pandemic of Swine Flu has affected most people. With 300,000 cases confirmed around the world this has drawn attention to cleanliness in everyday life, especially in the workplace.

It is important to sanitise the surfaces that you touch on a regular basis for example, your keyboard, telephone and mouse with the NHS advice indicating that the most effective way to slow down the spread of a pandemic flu is by stopping the spread of germs. There are many ways in which to do this, such as washing your hands regularly and using tissues to cover your mouth when you sneeze or cough.

To aid us in keeping our workplace clean AF have designed office cleaning products to specifically cleanse and sanitise your computers, keyboards, printers, telephones, screens, laptops and other office equipment and office supplies.

Some of the office cleaning products I have come across and recommend to keep your work area clean are the AF Interactive White Board Wipes for effective removal of dry ink residue and grease. This product is important for clear presentation and cleanliness during important tasks such as management meetings or presentations.

There is also the AF Mouse and Keyboard Cleaning Kit, currently one of our special offers and essential for anyone who works at a desk all day. The foam buds and mouseclene spray clean the contacts inside the mouse ball housing, helping to keep controlled cursor movement as well as being able to get in between the keys on your keyboard for a thorough clean.

Another handy product is the Foamclene. This anti-static foaming cleaner is for removing ingrained grease, dust and dirt and can be used on plastic casings, office furniture and walls, while its anti-static properties reduce the build up of dust.

The most versatile product from the AF range is the Screen Wipes. The wet/dry sachet duo is suitable for cleaning all computer and laptop screens as well as touch pad and plasma technologies, phone screens and iPod screens. The wet wipe removes dirt, dust, grease and grime from your screen and the dry wipe dries and buffers for a clean finish minus streaks and smears.

These are just a few of the products that can be found in the AF cleaning range, there are a whole host of other products from phone cleaning wipes to lens cleaning CD Roms to cleaning cloths to Sprayduster’s which are perfect for cleaning hard to reach places such as the inside of a printer.
