The non-slip rubberised surface also makes the pencils easy to use for long periods of time - perfect for long sessions in the classroom or studio - and protects them from moisture for a longer lifespan.WOPEX BarrelThese pencils are made using the innovative WOPEX material that improves the pencils quality as well as its environmental impact. WOPEX is manufactured from by-products of the timber industry generated during sawing and planing that would normally be discarded alongside wood from German PEFC certified forests. These forests are located just a short journey away from the production facility for a minimal carbon footprint.With the use of WOPEX the pencil barrel has a greater density than alternatives making it more robust and resistant to breakage for a longer lifespan. If the pencil does break however it will not splinter and cause harm to the user. A denser pencil is also heavier for more comfortable use and greater accuracy when drawing or colouring. WOPEX-based pencil tips will also sharpen evenly for further accuracy proving exceptional in quality for maximum satisfaction.The barrel has a diameter of 7mm.Quality LeadCheap economy alternatives often use low quality leads that result in inaccuracies and frustration. These pencils on the other hand use a special super-bonded lead formulation that is break resistant meaning no more repetitive sharpening or lead breakages mid-way through a project to ruin your concentration – even when high pressure is applied. This is yet another feature that expands the lifespan of the pencil and saves your school money over time.The velvety soft lead will also transfer onto paper in a way that is smooth even and predictable for a unique and satisfying experience every time. Much loved and for good reason there is no classroom colouring pencil superior to the Staedtler Noris.The lead has a diameter of 3mm.Wide Colour SelectionEach pack contains a selection of 24 popular vibrant colours specially selected to make a strong bold statement on paper and reflect the full spectrum of colours encountered in everyday life.Alongside the more popular colours there are also some unique tones that typical classroom pencil packs neglect which are necessary for finer details in realistic artworks such as still life drawings and landscapes.
