Leitz office supplies and equipment

Leitz is a renowned global brand that has become synonymous with premium office products and workspace organization systems. Founded in Germany in 1871 by Louis Leitz, the brand is most famous for inventing the lever arch file, which revolutionized document storage worldwide. Over the decades, Leitz has transitioned from a traditional stationery maker to a modern brand covering everything from laminating machines to health-focused ergonomic furniture.

While the brand holds deep German roots and maintains significant engineering and design operations there, manufacturing is distributed across multiple global locations including Germany, Poland, and China to serve international markets. The brand's identity remains tied to high-quality craftsmanship and technical innovation in the workplace.

In terms of corporate ownership, Leitz was part of the Esselte Group for many years. In 2017, Esselte was acquired by ACCO Brands Corporation, an American global leader in office products. Today, Leitz operates as a luxury flagship brand within the ACCO Brands portfolio, continuing its legacy of high-end office solutions.
