History of BINDER PRODUCTS

Binder Products began business in May of 1946 in the historic Vance Building in downtown Seattle.  The founder, Gil Houghton, ran a successful one-man-business for 28 years before being joined by Noel Cook in 1975.

In 1975 Noel and Janet Cook purchased the company from Gil.  In 1977 Jeff Aberge joined the company as the first full time salesman and in 1981 Roger Grossenbacher came aboard.  Over the next couple of years Binder Products expanded its sales force to five salesmen and a full time office manager.

In May of 1986 Binder Products moved to its current location near the Seattle Space Needle and Monorail.  The new expanded location allowed Binder Products to stock the largest inventory of plastic combs, double loop wire and coil in the northwest.  These products, combined with a wide selection of covers and machines, make Binder Products Seattle’s one-stop-shop for mechanical binding needs.

Over the past 30 years major northwest companies such as Boeing, Microsoft, Musak, Safeco and Weyerhaeuser have come to depend on Binder Products for custom presentation material.
