Rhodia

Rhodia is a French brand known for its classic notepads, notebooks and characteristically smooth paper. Its story began in France in the 1930s, and the iconic orange Rhodia pads have since become a favourite among everyone from students and creatives to fountain pen enthusiasts. Since 1997, Rhodia has been part of French paper manufacturer Clairefontaine.

The paper is one of the main reasons behind Rhodia’s popularity. Rhodia uses smooth, acid-free paper from Clairefontaine that provides a pleasant writing experience and allows the pen to glide easily across the page. Its properties make Rhodia particularly popular with fountain pen and ink users, although it works equally well with ballpoint pens, rollerballs, gel pens, mechanical pencils and graphite pencils.

Rhodia notepads are available with several different page layouts to suit different ways of writing and working. Choose from ruled, squared, plain and dotted paper. Rhodia DotPad notebooks are particularly popular for sketching, diagrams, hand lettering, journalling and planning, as the subtle dots provide structure without dominating the page.

Alongside its classic pads, Rhodia offers several types of notebooks. The range includes spiral-bound and stapled pads as well as bound notebooks for work, study, planning and personal notes. What they all share is a focus on paper, functionality and understated design that allows the writing itself to take centre stage.

Rhodia notepads are still made in France, and the brand’s long tradition of paper manufacturing continues through Clairefontaine. The combination of French production, high-quality paper and relatively simple design has made Rhodia something of a modern classic among writing enthusiasts.
