Office & Photocopy Paper FAQs

How many reams are in a box of A4 paper?

A box of A4 photocopy paper holds 5 reams of 500 sheets each, 2,500 sheets in total. Box prices are lower per ream than single-ream prices.

Should I buy 70gsm or 80gsm A4 paper?

Choose 80gsm for double-sided printing, client-facing documents and high-volume copiers, because it is more opaque and jams less. Choose 70gsm to save money on single-sided drafts and internal copies.

Which is better: Typek, Rotatrim or Double A?

Typek and Rotatrim are the everyday office standards in Nairobi and run reliably in laser printers and copiers. Double A is a premium paper with a brighter white and smoother surface, better suited to proposals, reports and certificates.

Do you sell A3 photocopy paper?

Yes. A3 photocopy paper is available in 70gsm and 80gsm, by the ream or by the box of 5 reams.

Photocopy Paper in Kenya

Photocopy paper is the workhorse of every Kenyan office. Sold in reams of 500 sheets, the standard weights are 70gsm and 80gsm. The 80gsm grades feel more substantial, jam less in high-volume copiers and show less show-through on double-sided printing, which is why most offices standardise on them.

Choosing a brand

Typek and Rotatrim are the most widely used in Nairobi and hold up well in laser printers. Double A and PaperOne are premium options with a brighter white point, better suited to documents that will be presented to clients.

Buying by the box

A box holds five reams. Buying by the box is materially cheaper per sheet and is how most schools, law firms and county offices order.
