CLN  | ABOUT US  |   UPDATES  |   DIRECTIONS
The Charles Leonard Group had its beginning in 1946 with the manufacturing and distribution of stationery products and ring elements for the binding industry. Our capacity was supplemented by importation of products from Japan in the late 1960's, making this business one of the largest and better known suppliers in our industry.

Our success led to the "spin off" and birth of Charles Leonard National (CLN) in 1996 as an entity completely dedicated to loose leaf hardware and related products, including screw posts, sheet lifters, and other accessory items sought by our clientele. Many of our products now originate in China and are manufactured at World Wide Stationery as part of a partnership that has existed for over twenty years. The hallmark of this relationship has been predictability, product innovation, and quality. We boast the only ring metal facility of our competitors that is ISO 9004 certified, and we are the pioneers of many new and highly popular products.

Today CLN ranks as the premier choice of our customers and the largest supplier to the custom segment in our industry. Our uniqueness comes from our private ownership, an extensive warehouse network, and a host of proprietary products. The management group of CLN has over a century of experience and our company has managed to grow and to prosper. CLN’s growth continues with its recent move to Hauppauge, New York. This 65,000 square foot facility (picture above) contains our “hub” warehouse and corporate offices. Please come and visit us here for a first-hand look at our commitment to your success.
