Avery Heavy-Duty Binders and Durable Binders are built tough for frequent use and long-lasting reliability.
Both binder types are available in a wide range of ring sizes, with or without a clear view cover, and in an assortment of colours. In fact, at first glance it may be difficult to tell one from the other; however, when you take a closer look, you will see that there are differences that make each option an ideal choice for different document storage and organization needs.
Here is what to consider when comparing Avery Heavy-Duty Binders and Durable Binders.
Lay Flat/Fold Flat
Easily access binder contents. Take notes while seated or standing! Heavy-Duty Binders and Durable Binders feature back-mounted rings allowing them to lay flat, fold flat, and stay flat! That means no more binder cover bounce back or unfolding. You can confidently get to the pages you need, without holding the cover open.
Slant D Rings
Avery Heavy-Duty and Durable Binders both feature Slant D Rings. This ring style allows for a higher paper storage capacity than traditional round rings.
Where Durable and Heavy-Duty Binders Differ:
Durable Binders -These binders have a standard ring closure.
Heavy-Duty Binders -These binders feature a Locking ring closure.
DuraHinge and DuraEdge
DuraEdge® and DuraHinge® are patented binder construction features used to prevent wear along binder edges and spines. This technology involves welding and molding the edges and spine in a specialized way, to prevent splitting along those areas. Other binders can crack along the spine or split at the edges after limited use, resulting in a need for frequent replacement. Thanks to DuraEdge® and DuraHinge®, Avery Heavy-Duty and Durable are built to last.
Double and Single Booster Binder Rings
Avery binders are easy to open and close! Closing the rings can be completed using the boosters at the top and bottom of the ring set, with no need to touch the rings. This virtually eliminates the risk of pinched fingers!
Where Durable and Heavy-Duty Binders Differ:
Durable Binders -These binders feature a double booster ring set. This means that you will find flat, metal boosters at the top and bottom of the binder. Use booth boosters to open and close.
Heavy-Duty Binders -These binders feature a single booster ring set with One Touch rings. This means that there is a single rubber-coated booster on one side of the ring set that can be used to open and close the rings with ease!
Interior Pockets
Easily store loose papers, pamphlets, business cards and other items with additional storage pockets available in both binder styles. Durable Binders have two interior storage pockets, while Heavy-Duty Binders have four.
Specialty Binder Sizes
Avery Heavy-Duty and Durable binders come in a wide variety of ring sizes. You can find Heavy-Duty binders in sizes as small as 1” all the way up to our beefy 5” ring size. Durable binders are available in ring sizes from ½” up to 4”, but there are also two additional specialty sizes available in the Durable style.
