When the notebook itself is the campaign
The standard corporate notebook is a PU cover with a debossed logo in the corner. It communicates professional. It communicates branded. It does not communicate anything else. The fabric notebook with full-colour cover printing communicates something entirely different. A full-colour illustrated cover, a brand-pattern design, a campaign visual, or an event-specific piece of artwork across the entire fabric surface turns the notebook from a functional stationery item into an object that recipients pick up, look at, and keep because it has visual appeal beyond its utility.
For organisations with strong brand visual identities, creative industries, consumer-facing companies, and any campaign where the gift brief calls for something memorable rather than something merely useful, this notebook is the right choice.
Cover material and full-colour printing
The cover is fabric, a textile surface that is meaningfully different from the PU leather, hard paper, and cardboard covers that most corporate notebooks use. The fabric surface has a soft, tactile quality that communicates warmth and craft rather than the corporate slickness of a standard PU notebook, and it provides a distinctive texture that makes the notebook immediately identifiable by feel as well as by sight.
The full-colour printing capability on the fabric cover is the primary differentiator from every other notebook in Singapore’s standard corporate gifting market. Where most notebooks limit branding to a small debossed or foil-stamped logo area, this notebook accepts full-colour photographic-quality print across the entire cover surface. A brand’s full visual identity, a campaign illustration, a product launch graphic, a character design, an abstract pattern, or any artwork that serves the brief can be reproduced in accurate, vibrant colour directly on the fabric cover.
The result is a notebook that looks like it was designed specifically for the campaign it accompanies rather than pulled from ready stock with a logo added. That distinction is visible immediately and changes how recipients perceive and value the gift.
80 GSM lined pages
The internal pages are 80 GSM lined paper. At 80 GSM, the paper is heavy enough for comfortable ballpoint, gel pen, and roller pen writing without excessive bleed-through to the reverse side. The lined ruling suits general note-taking, meeting notes, journaling, and planning. The page count should be confirmed at enquiry — please enquire for the current page count for this product.
Dimensions and format
At 21.5 x 14.7 cm, the notebook is true A5 format. A5 is the most widely ordered notebook size in Singapore’s corporate gifting market because it sits at the practical sweet spot: large enough to write on comfortably across a full meeting or lecture, compact enough to fit in a tote bag, conference bag, or laptop sleeve without being the largest item in the pack. The A5 format is standard enough that recipients know immediately how it fits into their existing stationery habits, and that familiarity increases the likelihood of regular use.
Custom branding and design options
The full cover surface is the primary branding zone. Full-colour printing accommodates any artwork at print resolution, including photographic elements, brand colour fills, illustrated designs, typographic covers, and pattern repeats across the surface. Both the front cover and the back cover can carry separate designs if the brief calls for it.
For organisations that want a more minimal approach, a single logo or brand mark printed in the corner or centred on the cover in one or two colours is also available.

Positioning relative to other notebooks in the corporate gifting market
PU leather notebooks such as the Thermo PU range are the standard premium corporate notebook. They are well-suited for executive gifting and professional contexts where a refined, classic appearance is the priority. The fabric notebook with full-colour printing occupies a different tier: it is better suited to campaigns, product launches, creative industry gifting, and any context where visual impact and design personality are part of the brief. For a technology company launching a new product, a creative agency’s client gift, a lifestyle brand’s seasonal gifting, or a youth-oriented event’s goodie bag, the fabric notebook with a designed cover is likely to make a stronger impression than a premium PU notebook with a debossed logo.
Suitable corporate event contexts
Conference and seminar welcome packs where the notebook is a working tool during the event and a keepsake afterwards. Product launch and brand campaign goodie bags where the cover design carries the campaign’s visual identity. Staff onboarding kits where the notebook is part of a first-day welcome that communicates the organisation’s creative values. Client appreciation gifts for creative industries, marketing agencies, and consumer-facing brands where the design quality of the gift reflects the giver’s standards. School and educational institution gifting for orientation programmes, academic recognition, and event merchandise. Corporate retreat and team-building event gifts where the notebook serves as a journal or programme companion.

Frequently asked questions
Can I design the cover completely from scratch or do I need to choose from templates?
The cover is fully custom — there are no templates to constrain the design. Any artwork that meets the print file specification can be reproduced on the cover. Share your design, your brief, or your brand assets when you enquire and we will advise on the artwork format requirements and layout options.
Can the front and back covers carry different designs?
Yes. The front cover and back cover can carry separate designs if the brief calls for it. This allows the front cover to carry the primary campaign visual and the back cover to carry secondary content such as contact details, event information, or a complementary design element. Mention this when you enquire.
How does the fabric cover feel compared to a PU leather notebook?
PU leather has a smooth, structured, professional feel that suits executive and formal gifting contexts. The fabric cover has a softer, more tactile quality with a textile texture that communicates warmth and craft. The choice between them depends on the tone the gift is intended to project. For creative, lifestyle, and campaign-led gifting where design personality is part of the brief, the fabric cover is typically the stronger choice.
How should recipients care for the notebook?
The fabric cover should be kept away from prolonged moisture and wiped clean with a dry cloth if surface marks occur. The notebook is not designed for submersion or machine washing. The printed cover is durable under normal use conditions.
