Abstract

Most students and teachers use ring binders to store and carry their work around to protect it. However over time, especially if the folder is used a lot, these folders bend which in turn bend the rings that hold the paper meaning that the work isn’t held as well any more and can even get damaged by the folder that is supposed to be protecting it. This is most common in areas of work where folders are moved and open lots of times every day. The follow project will try to find ways to improve the sustainability of folders and ring binders.
