Brepols

"Brepols, they're the ones who make diaries."

Brepols is a Belgian company best known for its diaries and planners. Within the Benelux, it remains the only company still producing diaries locally, a tradition it has maintained since 1796.

Brepols has deep roots in printing and bookbinding, and that heritage is reflected in its distinctive notebook collection: De KEMPEN.

Brepols set out to create a notebook built around the ideas of tradition, expertise, future and inspiration. The result is a notebook that combines centuries of printing and binding knowledge with a fresh, timeless design. A notebook that invites writing, sketching, holding on to ideas and keeping them close. Marble paper? Ribbon markers? Traditional craftsmanship? All these elements come together in a fitting name: De KEMPEN, a tribute to the land, history and foundations from which Brepols continues to grow.
