THE BRAND

The French OXFORD brand of notebooks, notepads, diaries and classification products is one of the flagships of Hamelin, a family firm founded in 1864 based in Caen.

OUR MISSION STATEMENT

At OXFORD, we firmly believe that handwriting is essential for learning and open-mindedness.

We believe in the importance of education for all ages and that each of us deserves the best tools for achieving success. This is why we want to make paper smarter by integrating digital into our products. The aim is to push the limits of the simple written page, empowering your writing and creating products inspired by the new generations.

QUALITY ISN’T AN OPTION, IT’S AN OBSESSION

It’s with the obsession of offering everyone the very best that Oxford invented and defined high-quality OPTIK PAPER^® for a unique writing experience; paper that ink doesn’t seep through, a perfect whiteness and a soft and silky touch, highly tear-resistant and 2-coloured lines for better visual comfort.

INNOVATION LIES IN OUR GENES

Oxford invented the school diary, detachable pages, multi-section notebooks with repositionable dividers, OpenFlex^®, notebook-folders, notebook-dividers, the 3-in-1 EasyBook^® notebook and the SCRIBZEE^® app. With this free app you can scan the notes in your notebook and on your revision cards, file them and locate them in your app so as to use them wherever and whenever you want.
