And it all begins with a pencil...

It was 1761, when cabinet maker Kaspar Faber, settled in Stein, Near Nuremberg in Germany, to make his first simple pencils. He took care to plane and glue each of them by hand. This quality craftsmanship proved worthy, and the Nuremberg market, the sales of his pencil flourished.

The Family Dynasty of Pencil markers had begun.

Now Faber-Castell is one of the world’s leading manufactures of high-quality products of writing, colouring and creative design. The international group of companies was originally founded 250 years ago (in 1761) as a pencil factory in Stein near Nuremberg, Germany. It is thus one of the oldest industrial companies in the world; in its 8th generation now, the company is headed by Council Anton Wolfgang von Faber-Castell. Since this time the company has significantly expanded it’s Global operations.

Today, the Faber-Castell group produces over 2 bilion black-lead and colour pencils every year, making it the world’s largest pencil manufacturer. Faber-Castell employs approximately 6,500 people in 16 production sites and 20 sales organizations around the world.
