The Evolution of Numberall’s Catalogs: A Journey Through Time and Innovation

As we prepare for the new year, it’s fascinating to reflect on the evolution of Numberall’s catalogs and how they have transformed over the decades. This journey not only highlights the technological advancements we’ve embraced but also our unwavering commitment to providing high-quality metal marking solutions.

A Look Back at Numberall’s Catalogs
The Early Years: In the beginning, Numberall’s catalogs were simple yet functional. The plain brown card stock cover housed pages held together by a metal clip, secured with a two-hole punch. Each page was printed in-house using wooden letter press print blocks, a testament to our hands-on approach and dedication. Office staff manually assembled each catalog, which was then mailed to customers. This process could take up to 2-3 weeks, with additional time for customers to place their orders, often resulting in a two-month turnaround.

Evolution and Improvements: As years passed, the catalogs saw significant upgrades. The brown card stock was replaced by a more modern reflux blue glossy cover, and the pages were bound with a spiral plastic binder. Printing responsibilities shifted to a local print shop, improving the quality of the pages while still maintaining in-office assembly. The introduction of fax machines revolutionized how quickly we could send catalog pages to customers, reducing the waiting time to mere minutes.

Modern Advancements: The last major overhaul of our catalog saw the introduction of color photos, detailed technical information, and comprehensive charts. Our website was also redesigned to mirror the catalog, ensuring that customers have access to the same information online. Today, our website continuously evolves with new pictures, blogs, and video presentations, and is mobile-friendly for convenience. Additionally, web-based ordering is now available for some of our standard products, streamlining the purchasing process.
