The business, originally known as Stuart Artpads, was established in the late 70's when it began trading as a general printer. In the 80's it began to specialise in making advertising pads. The business grew rapidly and gained an excellent reputation as a low cost, trade only supplier that distributors could depend upon.
The business was bought and renamed Adpads in 1989. Over the next few years the company successfully expanded it's product range with the addition of memo holders, block pads, sticky notes and mouse mats. After a management buyout in November 2003, new owners David Fletcher and Howard Smith, formed Adco Products Limited. The 'Adpads' brand name, synonymous with quality promotional paper products, was retained as a sales division. Their range was extended further by venturing into plastic promotional merchandise, forming the Adplas sales division.
