Why Choose Carl?

• Industrial Japanese Engineering: Carl products are "over-engineered" in the best way possible. While generic punches use plastic components that crack under pressure, Carl uses double-thickness steel and aluminium die-cast parts. A Carl punch bought today for your Dubai office will likely still be operational in 2040.
• Blade Technology Innovation: Carl doesn't just cut; it slices with surgical precision. Their punches use hollow drill bits (similar to industrial drills) rather than simple pressure pins, allowing them to core through hundreds of sheets cleanly. Their rotary trimmer blades are crafted from premium steel that retains sharpness longer, reducing long-term replacement costs.
• Safety First Design: Safety is paramount in UAE schools and fast-paced offices. Carl's rotary trimmers encapsulate the blade, making it impossible to cut fingers during operation. The Angel-5 sharpener prevents "over-sharpening", which often results in eaten-up pencils and sharp, dangerous waste shavings.
• Consumable Support: A heavy-duty tool is only good if you can maintain it. Carl designs its equipment for maintenance, not disposal. FEPY stocks replacement punching disks, drill bits, and trimmer mats, ensuring your equipment stays in service for years.

FAQs

Are Carl paper cutters suitable for schools and offices in the UAE?

Yes. Carl cutters are widely used in educational institutions and offices due to their safety features, precision and long-term durability.

Can I place bulk orders for Carl punch machines and cutters?

Absolutely. FEPY PRO supports bulk and repeat orders—ideal for schools, training centres and multi-branch offices across the UAE.

Are Carl's tools safe for shared workspaces?

Yes. Many Carl cutters are designed with blade-lock and safety guards, making them suitable for environments with multiple users.

How fast is delivery for Carl products in the UAE?

FEPY offers fast, UAE-wide delivery. Timelines depend on stock availability and location, but priority dispatch is standard for office essentials.

What if a Carl product arrives damaged or incorrect?

FEPY's standard return and support policy applies. Any damaged or incorrect item can be replaced or refunded through customer support.

Can the Carl 122N really punch 150 sheets at once?

Yes, provided standard 80gsm copy paper is used. The hollow drill bit technology cores out the paper rather than pushing through it, making high-capacity punching significantly easier than with standard punches.

How do I know when to change the punching disks on my Carl punch?

You should rotate the punching disks (the small plastic pads under the drill bits) when the surface becomes deeply indented or uneven. If you don't rotate or replace them, the bottom sheets of your stack may not punch cleanly.

Does the Carl rotary trimmer cut cardboard?

Carl rotary trimmers are designed primarily for paper, cardstock, and laminates. While they can handle heavy cardstock (up to approx. 32 sheets of paper equivalent), they are not designed for thick corrugated cardboard or greyboard.
