Description

BEFORE THE HISTORY OF THE COMPANY (established in 1963) , the history of filing system needs to be MADE known TO ALL WHO USE FILES IN OFFICES.

It all began about 5000 years ago. Lands were sold & deeds from these transactions had to be preserved , public records had to be kept. History tells us that these records were recorded on baked hardened clay blocks. The manner of these blocks was stack method. Naturally the sheer weight and clumsiness of these blocks had to be improved. In the valley to Nile there grew a reed-like plant known as Papyrus. The Egyptians took this wild plant and made a sort of pliable paper which they pressed into sheets. These sheets were then pasted into long strips sometimes as much as 130' long . On these sheets were written the records of the day. Rollers were devised to store these sheets. These sheets would be folded into sections, then sewed together into a crude book called 'Codex' and these were stored on shelves. There was very little change from this point till the nineteenth century. The first modern day device for storing records was spindle. When the spindle was full, records were removed ad strung on wire overhead and suspended between walls. The next improvement was wooden drawers approximately 2" high and large enough to accommodate all sizes of papers. It was quite an improvement over the earlier spindle method. About the turn of the century came the vertical two, three and four drawer filing cabinets as we know it today. As floor space cost increased and progress continued, many more records had to be kept. To provide extra space for these records without increasing floor space, cost, 5th drawer was added. The progress continued, business grew, records mounted but no one did anything for storing and filing these records until 1963 when REKORD people(then known as Haba Corporation) took the problem in hand created designed and introduced lateral filing. This filing system consist of plastic separated with indexes, slidably mounted on a guide (Channel ) forming individual compartments for the file.
