Pentel Recycology
Much like the filing products, Recycology writing instruments are made from more than 50% recycled materials*, giving the same Pentel high quality and performance. These cover the full spectrum of writing instruments including ballpoint pens, markers, fibre tips, highlighters and mechanical pencils, leads, correction products and an eraser. Recycology products are available from many stationery suppliers.

In previous e-Zines we’ve told you about our efforts to raise money for Breast Cancer Campaign, through sales of our pink-barrelled products. And, as we approach Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we will once again be doing as much as we can to help this important cause (see later in this e-Zine). But, there are other ways too that you can help, which links in to the recycling theme of this month’s e-Zine. Would you believe that every year in the UK 30 million ink cartridges are discarded along with 15 million hand sets? So why not click on the link below to see how you can recycle and raise money for Breast Cancer Campaign at the same time!!

Back to College

Although many schools and colleges are only just embarking on their summer holiday it’s never too early to start thinking about the new term! Two great new products will make their appearance for the first time in the UK for the company’s Back to College promotion. This e-Zine gives you a sneak preview of these exciting new products!
2 Colours Sign Pen
Pentel - 2 Colour Sign Pen
This permanent, twin-tipped marker is convenient to use and can be used on most surfaces including CDs. The different colour bullet tips and handy pocket clip make this an ideal product to use on the go. Named after the original, and best-selling Sign Pen with which it shares similar properties, it has a fibre tip each end, meaning the tip is durable and will perform over and over again. Perfect for office, college or home.
