Operating for 80 years in the Sumida area of Tokyo, Ito Bindery's operations currently focus on the manufacturing of their original line of memo blocks and drawing pads, as well as the production of flyers, leaflets and brochures. ITO Bindery's sleek stationery line is popular with those in creative fields, minimalists, and those who admire simple yet functional designs. Many members of the Ito family have a hand in the company, and it is not uncommon to see previous generations lending a hand in the factory.
