Frequently Asked Questions
Post-it notes are used for a variety of reasons in a variety of contexts, though the most common reasons revolve around school and office work.
The average pad of Post-its has 100 notes included, although some packs and specialty notes may contain different quantities. Filing tabs and flags for example may have 24 in a pack, and large Post-it note cubes sometimes have 400 sheets per pack.
The standard color for sticky notes is yellow, which came from the original piece of scrap paper taken from a lab next door and used to test adhesives. Since then, there have been a variety of new colors released, often in aesthetically-pleasing sticky note packs. For example, Post-it has released multiple runs of neon sticky note color packs, pastel packs, and even the occasional limited edition pack with unique color combos.
In recent years, Post-it has rapidly expanded their product line to include a variety of different small and large Post-it note sizes. Larger notes such as their 15 inch by 15 inch ‘Big Notes’ and their 25 inch by 30 inch ‘Easel Pads’ bring up the larger side of sizing, whereas their ½ inch by 2 inch ‘Page Markers’ and 1.5 inch by 2 inch mini notes bring up the smaller side of sizing. However, the standard Post-it note size is 3 inches by 3 inches.
Yes! When paper is recycled, it goes through a de-inking process that removes potential contaminants so paper can be reused. In addition to any writing that this removes, it also removes a majority of the adhesive used to make Post-its stick. As a result, Post-its can be safely recycled and sent to paper mills to be reused. In addition, “Greener Notes” by Post-it are made from recycled paper, providing a sustainable option for your note-taking needs. |
