Tombow Stationery

Tombow is a legendary Japanese stationery brand synonymous with precision engineering and high-quality artistic tools. Founded in 1913, the company built its reputation on the production of high-grade wooden pencils and eventually expanded into specialized categories like the iconic 'MONO' erasers and professional-grade brush pens used by artists worldwide.

Today, Tombow maintains a robust manufacturing network with significant operations in Japan and a large-scale production facility in Vietnam. The brand remains under the stewardship of the original founding family's enterprise, operating as a private independent company. This allows Tombow to maintain a consistent focus on craftsmanship and innovation, particularly in the creative and office supply markets where it is recognized for balancing traditional craftsmanship with modern ergonomics.
