Herlitz hole punch

Herlitz is a well-established brand in the stationery and office supplies sector, known for its wide range of school and office products. Originally founded in Germany, the brand has built a reputation for durable and practical designs, such as the classic black office hole punch shown in the image.

While the brand originated in Berlin, it underwent significant corporate changes in the 21st century. Today, Herlitz is part of the Pelikan Group. Following the acquisition of Pelikan Group by the French company Hamelin in late 2023 and 2024, the brand is now under French ownership. Manufacturing has traditionally been concentrated in Germany and Poland, though global supply chains mean components or specific models may be produced in multiple locations.
