Office Stationery Manufacturing in the US Industry Data and Analysis
The office stationery manufacturing industry grapples with the adoption of digital technologies, which has led to a reduced demand for traditional stationery items like paper, notebooks and envelopes. This has resulted in shrinking order volumes and less investment in new products. This shift has also led to industry consolidation, with unprofitable facilities closing and manufacturers merging or exiting the market. Stationery manufacturers are now focusing on niche segments like premium or custom stationery and are investing in automation and efficiency improvements to keep their businesses afloat. An additional concern for envelope manufacturers specifically is the drop in direct mail volumes, which were down 7.1% in Q1 2025, compared to Q1 2024. However, industry revenue spiked 14.0% in 2022, driven by the reopening of corporate offices, education institutions and commercial infrastructure. Despite a revenue drop every other year through the five years to 2025, industry revenue has climbed at a CAGR of 0.4% to $6.3 billion through the end of 2025, despite a 2.1% drop in 2025 alone.
