LEITZ Launches Notebook and Pad Lineup Built for Capturing Ideas On the Go

Stuttgart – September 09, 2026 -- Stationery maker LEITZ ACCO Brands has rolled out a new range of notebooks and pads designed to catch fleeting ideas before they disappear, arguing that good thinking rarely happens at a desk.

Ideas often strike away from the office, the company says

According to LEITZ, flashes of inspiration tend to arrive in the shower, on the commute, or over coffee -- moments when a laptop typically isn't within reach. The company positions its new hardcover notebooks and spiral-bound pads as tools meant to travel: into meetings, onto trains, or into cafés.

Dreame Debuts Dual-Zone Air Fryer, 10-Minute Ice Cream Maker at IFA 2026

Dual-zone air fryer cooks two dishes without mixing flavors

The flagship FeastTM Dual-Zone Crispy-Tender air fryer uses a 'Dual-Drive' airflow system with two independent air circuits to limit flavor transfer between foods cooked simultaneously. Its CrispZone relies on 18 wide blades and a vertical 3D airflow to cut oil use by up to 88.5%, according to Dreame Lab testing, while the TenderZone uses 20 high-density fan blades for horizontal airflow that locks in moisture. A SYNC cooking system paired with two extra racks lets users prepare two different flavors and up to four dishes at once.

The company is displaying four product lines: the Brio balcony solar storage system, the Elux and Ark portable power stations, and the foldable Asp-series solar panels. The goal is to link solar generation, storage, and smart energy management into a single connected system for everyday use.

Designed for households with balcony solar setups, the Brio system lets users store surplus solar electricity generated during the day and use it later, rather than losing unused output back to the grid.
