They provide a simple solution for separating sections and improving navigation through documents in office, school or home settings.

Advantages

The set includes five colours for visual differentiation and an index sheet for quick reference. The Blue Angel certification documents adherence to environmental standards for recycled paper products.

Suitable for

• Marking sections in A4 folders and ring binders
• Organising lesson plans, notebooks and study materials
• Separating personal documents and household files
• Temporary labelling in offices and archives

When it may not be suitable

These cardboard index tabs are intended for light to moderate document handling and are not designed for heavy-duty or long-term archival use where reinforced or plastic tabs would be preferable. They are not adhesive labels and therefore require insertion into punched folders or use with compatible binder systems.
