A word from the CEO
We are a writing instrument manufacturer that started with a fountain pen in 1919, and the name "fountain pen"
is still part of our company name. Fountain pen is made based on a capillary action where liquid (ink) is sucked
from a very narrow gap, so it's a writing instrument in which essence of all science including ink (chemical),
metallic engineering, plastic molding and mechanical engineering come together. We were the first in the world
to make the cartridge type fountain pen fit for practical use and by applying this technology to other writing
instruments, we were able to invent products that are widely used in government agencies and offices such as
fluorescent markers that are not disposable and can be used repeatedly. To be able to deliver products that can
be appreciated by our customers, we examine the best materials that complement these technologies. Due to
the fact that fountain pens have a more elastic pen tip than other writing instruments, the thickness of the line
and shade of the ink appear on the paper. This especially unveils the detailed texture of the handwritten text.
Platinum Fountain Pens realize the smoothest writing comfort as the finest materials are used for the pen tips.
"When you look at a handwritten text, your feeling becomes a little warmer because you're coming in contact
with another person's feelings..."
Many things have happened in the past 100 years, and we received support
from many people. Thank you. However, if humans continue to be humans for the next 100 years, then nothing
should change in that interaction of feelings. We believe that our mission is to introduce a writing instrument
that is slightly ahead of our time. Also, while making use of our abundant experience and history in the field, we
will think of ways to integrate new technologies with new m aterials to create new products.
