Office Supplies
When it comes to kitting out an office, desks and chairs, computers, keyboards, and electronics are some of the first tools that spring to mind – but stationery is equally as important! Here are some office and stationery supply essentials that all manufacturing, agricultural, automotive, and hospitality businesses need:
Paper
Every business needs a constant supply of high-quality paper, whether for creating menus, printing resumes, writing agendas, or brainstorming for a new project – the list is endless!
All of our paper options are compatible with inkjet and laser printers, photocopiers, and fax machines, but we'd recommend the Universal Copy Paper if you're looking to create documents consisting mainly of text.
Made from 57% total recycled fiber content, this environmentally-friendly copy paper is ideal for general office printing and copying. It's also acid-free, meaning it offers complete archival quality with every use.
If note-taking is your main priority, Universal's Perforated Writing Pads are a great option. With a wide red margin legal rule, this excellent quality-free sheet paper is perforated for easy removal and also has a sturdy back, making on-the-go writing much more convenient.
Pens
From commercial clients to those in the education and medical fields, ballpoint pens are the perfect option for writing with minimal smudging.
Our bestsellers are the Paper Mate Inkjoy 100 RT Retractable Ballpoint Pens, which feature a smooth, fast-writing system that spreads ink easily. The retractable design makes these pens ready to write with a satisfying click, providing a long-lasting finish for those important documents.
Brighten up every page with the Universal Desk Highlighters, tools that are great for everything from marking dates on the office calendar to taking notes in a meeting. The chisel tip allows for both broad and narrow lines, while the wide barrel is easy to hold for effortless highlighting.
Top Breakroom Supplies
Help employees find the right work-life balance by creating a dedicated breakroom in your office, warehouse, school, or store. Stock your breakroom with all of the supplies needed for your staff to relax and refuel, which can boost productivity levels and allow you to maintain a productive workforce.
#1 Beverages
Staying energized is often one of the best solutions for getting through those busy work days, and what better way can this be done than with some delicious coffee?
The Original Donut Shop Coffee K-Cups offer an all-American roast with the highest quality Arabica beans. With a bright, smooth flavor and sweet overtones that linger on the tongue, this convenient coffee cup is sure to brighten the days of staff and guests of your company.
As a coffee alternative for those who prefer a natural energy boost, stock up on the Lipton Tea Bags. Warm up with a hot tea break or serve this drink ice cold on a hot summer's day while chilling out, whether at home or in the office.
#2 Cups
If you're encouraging your team to stay hydrated, you'll need to provide the right equipment, which, of course, starts with cups.
No matter what size you require, the Boardwalk Translucent Plastic Cups offer an economical option for sodas, juices, and other cold drinks. The sturdy plastic eliminates the chances of leaks, so keep these stocked up in the office cafeteria or next to the water cooler without worrying about spillages.
For hot beverages, the Dixie Hot Cups are our bestseller. While the cup design offers a comfortable grip, Dixie's patented paper process provides excellent insulation. This reduces the need for double-cupping and beverage sleeves, therefore lowering the cost of hot drink solutions for your workplace.
#3 Sweetener
Although maintaining energy levels with a coffee making station is essential for office productivity, you'll also want to avoid the post-lunchtime slump that can derail the rest of the day.
So, rather than stocking your breakroom with sugar, try the Sweet 'N Low Sugar Substitute instead. Containing zero calories, this saccharin-based product offers a sweetness equivalent to 2 teaspoons of sugar, meaning you'll never miss out on a great-tasting hot beverage!
Keep Your Restroom Sparkling
Not only does a clean bathroom reduce the spread of harmful bacteria, but it also works wonders for the reputation of your hotel, office, or retail store. Enhance the comfort of guests and employees by keeping your janitorial and sanitation cupboard fully stocked with disinfectant sprays, trash bags, paper towels, and deodorizer screens.
Here are some of our top-recommended cleaning supplies that you can find in the BuyDirect catalog:

Fresh Products Wave 3D Urinal Deodorizer Screen:
The subtle mango scent of this urinal deodorizer eliminates odors and saves you a considerable amount of cleaning time. The screen also reduces splashback and ensures proper urinal damage to boost the hygiene standards of your restroom.

What Are Manufacturing Supplies?
Manufacturing supplies are those items and pieces of equipment used in manufacturing facilities. However, they are not a material directly involved in the production or assembly line; these supplies instead refer to anything from cleaning equipment, breakroom supplies, and office tools, such as pens and paper, to keep the facility operating with efficiency.
What Are Industrial Supplies?
Industrial supplies refer to the equipment, components, spare parts, and accessories that a company needs to continue providing its services. These supplies can also mean the supplies needed to maintain a productive workforce, such as office equipment and breakroom supplies like coffee, cups, and cleaning materials.
What Are Suppliers in Manufacturing?
Suppliers act as the bridge between manufacturers, retailers, wholesalers, and sometimes the end customers. They ensure that products and services arrive at their final destination at the correct time, while managing inventory, sourcing the right equipment, handling shipping, and upholding supply safety standards.
