An eco-design pencil that reinvents the resource system

This forward-looking pencil is made from recycled organic waste, but also feeds existing and grows new plants. A pencil that nurtures Nature.

As an innovative eco design, Fabula was awarded with Red Dot Award 2016 in the Green Category and the A'Design Award in the category of Sustainable Products, Projects and Green Design Category, 2014 - 2015.

This forward-looking pencil reveals how everyday objects can be created from recycled organic waste. Fabula is created from the used tea-leaves and coffee grounds from cafes, together with petals discarded by the many florists. Suppose that one coffee shop produces an average of 30 kg of organic waste monthly: this can be recycled and reused to manufacture about 3000 pencils!

The materials are further processed to create the pencil's sturdy body with its delicate grainy surface and slightly bigger volume that fits perfectly into the hand when writing. And as a writing & drawing tool, Fabula uses high-quality eco-graphite.

While using it as a writing and drawing tool, you can enrich the plants in your environment with Fabula's shavings, instead of binning them!

When it gets too short to use, the Fabula stub can be activated in water to plant a young  golden inca berry! The new plant grows from  seeds incorporated in the very top of the pencil body. By dissolving it in water and planting it in the soil instead of just throwing it away, you will enrich your personal ambience with a new plant.  

Showcasing pro-environmental behavior to your co-workers or to a child, encouraging them to think out of the box!
