Tipp-Ex Rapid Correction Fluid

Tipp-Ex is one of the most recognized brands in the world for correction products. Founded in 1959 in Frankfurt, Germany, by Wolfgang Dabisch, the brand revolutionized office work with its correction tape and liquid. The name 'Tipp-Ex' is derived from the German word 'tippen' (to type) and 'ex' (Latin for out/away).

In 1997, the brand was acquired by Societe BIC, a French company famous for its pens and lighters. Today, while it retains its German heritage in name and origin, it is part of BIC's global stationery portfolio. Manufacturing occurs in several global locations to serve different markets, with significant production facilities in France and partners in Asia. The brand serves as a synonym for correction fluid in many European countries.
