Doing our part to help protect the environment is important—and getting more important every day. Even seemingly small steps, like choosing reusable and responsibly made pens, can add up to a big difference over time. For a bit of perspective, Bic has sold over 100 billion disposable pens since 1950. If all those pens were lined up end to end, they could circle the Earth 350 times.
Using an environmentally friendly pen doesn’t have to be a sacrifice. In fact, you may even be using one already without realizing it! In this article we’ll share our favorite eco-friendly pens, many of which are already extremely popular due to their great quality and performance.

If anything, minimalist brand Ensso has proven over the years that they're not afraid to switch things up and try unique designs! In the continuously expanding lineup of Ensso products, no two pens look even remotely the same.

Midori are a brand synonymous with quality stationery products. I was looking for a notebook with about 300 pages which can lay flat and be bashed around day-to-day. This one fit the bill. One of my friends used the thinner one at work earlier this year and I was impressed with how well the paper took fountain pen ink! It was then that I knew this thicker version at... read more
Pilot's FriXion "erasable" ink is simply extraordinary. Even though we know the science behind this incredible technology, watching the ink disappear right before our eyes is always nothing short of magical. FriXion technology stars in a wide range of products spanning gel pens, colored pencils, markers, highlighters and more, so it's only fitting that we break down this line of fascinating products. read more
The talk of the last few weeks has clearly been focused on the newest tortoise release from Pelikan, the upcoming M605 Tortoiseshell-Black.
