KUALA LUMPUR: Almost all Malaysians would have owned a Faber-Castell pencil or pen at some point in their lives, whether in school or at work. No surprise at all.
The brand’s long presence on our shores and globally further asserts this.
A trusted companion for many since childhood with its child-safe black lead pencils, colour pencils and wax crayons, Faber-Castell has continued its journey with us through the academic years of ball pens and coloured markers into adulthood with its range of quality writing instruments and stationery.
Established in 1761, Faber-Castell is one of the oldest industrial companies in the world still operating today and 2011 marks a historic event for the company as it celebrates its 250th anniversary worldwide with all its consumers.
From its humble beginnings as a pencil-making business in Germany, Faber-Castell has grown to become a brand renowned for its high quality and innovative products, which has allowed the company to continue being relevant in today’s world of modern technology.
In conjunction with this milestone, Faber-Castell is bringing Malaysians a travelling showcase of its rich heritage and range of high quality products.
Highlights of this showcase include a display of record breaking pencils – the world’s oldest pencil from the 17th century; the world’s smallest pencil at 17.5mm length; and the world’s most expensive pencil with its cap made of solid white gold and crowned with three fine-quality diamonds, valued at RM43,000.
Members of the public can also delve into the rich history of one of the world’s oldest companies run by 8 generations of the Faber-Castell family members and see how the brand has evolved over the centuries. The German Ambassador to Malaysia, His Excellency Dr Guenter Gruber, officially kicked off the 250th anniversary exhibition at Pavilion KL.
This exhibition will travel to Queensbay Mall, Penang (Nov 24-27) and Sunway Pyramid (Feb 16-21). For more information, visit www.faber-castell.com.my.
