The jury of the renowned German Design Awards honoured the product and eco-design of the company Schneider Schreibger\u00e4te twice with their annual award. Both pen models Take 4 and Reco were awarded a prize for 2021. The internationally renowned design award is given by the council for best design once a year. The jury comprises design experts from business and the scientific community as well as the design industry. All jury members are well-known personalities in their field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The company explains: \u201cThe desire to have a sustainable 4-color pen on the market was becoming increasingly stronger. For this reason, Schneider worked on coming up with the perfect solution: a model that will win users over with high writing quality, sustainability and an attractive design. The new Take 4 pen from Schneider has managed to fulfil all the requirements.\u201d Take 4 not only proves itself as an everyday organizational helper, it also impresses people with its comfortably soft and wonderfully smooth writing feeling thanks to its Viscoglide\u00ae technology. Additionally, the Take 4 barrel is produced in an environmentally-friendly and resource-saving manner and 92% of the barrel is made from recycled post-consumer plastic. There is a small imprint at the end of the pen indicating it is made from recycling material. The four-coloured pen is also very easy to refill with the Take 4 refill. This pen reduces waste and will always ensure users have a fun writing experience. (more information under Take 4)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new Schneider model Reco has already managed to be the only pen to receive the Blue angel certification. Schneider is particularly proud of this achievement, because the Blue Angel rules are especially challenging for ballpoint pens to meet. 92% of the barrel is made out of recycling material. To fulfil the high Blue Angel requirements, Schneider developed a new paste. The modern and dynamic design turns this pen into a real highlight with its matt shimmering surface. Reco is manufactured at facilities in Southern Germany using an environmentally-friendly and resource-saving method that follows the Blue Angels criteria. The stable, fibre-reinforced and break-proof clip round off its dynamic look and is designed for long-term use. (more information under Reco). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
