What will a Desk Pad do for me?

Never before used a desk pad? Unsure why you should? Once you experience the luxury of a good quality desk pad, you'll be lost without one! Consider the following purposes a desk pad serves:

1. A desk pad protects the surface of your executive desk or boardroom table from scratches, spills and stains. If you have ever experienced the results from a spilled cup of coffee, a pen that leaks ink, a cufflink or bracelet that scratched the surface of your expensive wood desk, you'll likely understand the need for a desk pad.

2.A desk pad provides a suitable writing surface. When you write with a pen, you want a perfectly flat, padded, surface to ensure your pen works properly, your paper does not tear and you do not leave an imprint on your desk.

3. A desk pad helps to prevent sudden paper shifting. A stack of documents or a single sheet, requiring your signature can become a never-ending task if a page keeps slipping while you are signing it. The waste of paper, your time, your staff’s time highlight the value of a desk pad with a non-skid foam back.

4. A desk pad provides a flat surface with padding and helps lessen stress and fatigue from hours of writing. This has obvious benefits, increasing your creativity and the ergonomic functionality of your office.

5. A desk pad can enhance the look of your desk and office. Make a statement to your clients, your co-workers and your boss with a desk pad that looks great and has a purpose.

6. A desk pad can help keep clutter to a minimum. Your desk pad is a thing of beauty you won’t want hidden beneath piles of paper. With a desk pad that entices you to get your work done and makes you want to keep it clear for efficient use, your productivity will increase and the rest of the office will be wondering what your secret is.

What should I know about Desk Pads before I buy?

An Internet search for the words "desk pad" will produce enough results to confuse even the most knowledgeable consumer. Who has the time to weed through every item? But all you want is a desk pad, right?

1. What kinds of desk pads are available?

Knowing this will help. There are inexpensive desk pads made from cardboard and paper. There are clear desk pads made from plastics and vary in thickness and price. There are leather desk pads, usually expensive. There are Rhinolin™ desk pads that vary in price. There are wooden accents on desk pads made from Rhinolin™ and are in the mid to high price range.

2. What kind of desk pad should I choose?

If you just want an oversize pad of paper or calendar to doodle on when you are at your desk, the inexpensive, cardboard backed desk pad will do. However, it will not protect your desk from spills and doodles can give your desk an unorganized appearance.

If you have lists of information that must be accessible at all times but keep getting lost, such as phone numbers or codes for parts, instructions on how to change your toner cartridge or set the digital clock, you might need a clear desk pad. Your items can be placed beneath the clear surface and be seen when you need them. Just make sure the finish of your desk is compatible with these items because lacquered or urethane or acrylic surfaces can be damaged when using some clear desk pads.

If you want a writing surface to help protect your desk from scratches, check out the Rhinolin™ desk pads.

If you love the look of leather and can afford the cost, you will want to check out the care instructions. Avoid heat, direct sunlight, dust and use only guaranteed products to clean them. Leather is beautiful, it comes in different colors and it will last, if properly cared for.

If you want a desk pad to enhance the look of your desk and protect the surface while making your writing more enjoyable, consider a quality wood accented desk pad with a black Rhinolin™ writing surface with a non-skid foam back which lays flat and stays put. Cushioned comfort and timeless elegance at an affordable price just might be the best of all choices.

As an informed consumer, you are better able to eliminate the types of desk pads that will not serve you well. Your personal requirements and taste are the key factors in making your final choice.
