Stationery wholesale for the Netherlands and Belgium
Stationery and office supplies wholesale for stationery shops, bookshops, office supply dealers, bol and Amazon sellers, retail chains and promotional agencies in the Netherlands and Belgium. We deliver by road from Poland, typically within 3–5 working days.
The two countries share a language border but not a packaging system. The Netherlands works through Verpact; Belgium splits household and industrial packaging between Fost Plus and Valipac. Products sold in Belgium also need labels in Dutch and French in most cases, so we print one bilingual label for both markets.

Frequently asked questions
Can one label cover the Netherlands and Belgium?
Yes. A bilingual Dutch and French label covers the Netherlands and most of Belgium. We print both languages on the label, the packaging and any instructions.
Do I need to join Verpact?
It depends on how much packaging you place on the Dutch market and on your role under the EU Packaging Regulation, which applies since 12 August 2026. Check your case with Verpact; we provide packaging weights by material.
Is my packaging Fost Plus or Valipac?
Packaging that reaches households, such as a blister card, window box or shrink pack, falls under Fost Plus. Transport packaging such as pallets, stretch film and outer cartons for businesses falls under Valipac. Some items need a split declaration.
When should we order back-to-school stock for the Benelux?
As a working guide, place stock orders between January and April and confirm own-brand items by about March, so that goods typically arrive in June–July. Factory holidays in late January–February stop production for several weeks, so earlier orders are safer.
Do you deliver to bol fulfilment?
We deliver to your warehouse or 3PL, labelled to the requirements you send us, including the bol fulfilment rules.
