A Pack of Eco-Friendly Ballpoint Pens

This pack of eco-friendly ballpoint pens are made from recycled paper, with medium nibs and comfortable non-slip grip and a smooth even flow writing experience. Sold in a pack of 10 with black ink, the pens are also easy to recycle.

At end of use, just soak the pen in hot water for around 2 minutes. Unravel the paper shaft, remove the stainless steel ink chamber, and recycle all the parts appropriately. Each pen is tightly hand-rolled down to the nib.

Writing Pen Safety Tips

Keep pens & pencils away from young children & pets. Avoid gifting plantable pens to homes with pets, as many contain wildflowers or herbs that are not safe near animal friends. Learn more on pet-friendly gardens.

Why Choose Eco-Friendly Writing Pens?

Each day, millions of plastic writing pens end up in landfills, polluting soil and water. Plastic also requires fossil fuels to make, and produces greenhouse gases.

Most pens are also sold in plastic packaging (often in quantities more than needed (like packs of 10, when you only need one or two usually).

Where to Recycle Plastic Pens and Pencils

Terracycle offers a free writing instruments recycling programme, sponsored by industry. Just order a box for your office, school or community then everyone can deposit unwanted pens, pencils, highlighters, correction fluids, felt-tips pens and erasers.

You can also download a poster to display near the recycling box, and all items are sent off to be made into other things (like park benches).
