A Short History of Rhino Stationery

Rhino Stationery today is the result of 100 years' worth of experience in the office stationery industry. Rhino Stationery is a trading name of Victor Stationery, a family run business that has been making high-quality paper stationery and exercise books since the 1920s.

Today, Rhino’s commitment goes far beyond the page. Their manufacturing facility meets rigorous environmental standards, proudly holding FSC® (FSC-C092742), PEFC (PEFC/19-31-05), and Swan label certifications. From responsible sourcing to sustainable production and waste management, every step reflects their dedication to protecting the planet.

But Rhino’s impact doesn’t stop at sustainability as it extends to species conservation. Since 2006, every Rhino Stationery product has featured the Save the Rhino International logo, raising awareness among educators and students alike. This long-standing partnership has generated over £100,000 in donations, helping safeguard five endangered rhino species across Africa and Asia from poaching and habitat loss.

Not Just Sustainable Notebooks

Rhino Stationery’s 100% recycled collection is more than just paper; it’s a celebration of the endangered rhino species. Printed using solvent-free, water-based inks, each product in the range spotlights a different rhino under threat, with fascinating facts tucked inside to educate and inspire. There’s plenty of space for your notes, sketches, and ideas, making it a thoughtful choice for eco-conscious learners and creators.

Beyond this collection, Rhino offers a wide selection of A4 notebooks, pads, and paper, all crafted from responsibly sourced materials from European forests and other certified green suppliers. Every item is 100% recyclable, and recycled content is used wherever possible to reduce environmental impact.

From refill pads to classroom ready exercise paper, Rhino’s stationery is designed with sustainability at its core. Using solvent-free inks and recyclable materials, they’ve upheld their commitment to eco-friendly production since the 1920s, proving that great stationery can support both learning and the planet.
