MONO - die Marke mit dem Trikolore!

The name of the sub-brand “MONO” derives from the Greek word “monos,” which means “unique.” MONO was first used for the MONO 100 pencils, whose uniqueness was expressed in the slogan at the time: “8 billion particles per cubic millimeter.” This highlighted the exceptional density of the pencil lead. Today, the Tombow sub-brand MONO offers not only pencils but also erasers, fineliners, correction rollers, and—in Europe—adhesive products. All MONO products are designed to provide the best possible support to creative individuals, whether they are studying, working, or enjoying their free time. They are functional, reliable tools that stand for professionalism, the highest quality, and the utmost precision.

By the way: In Japan, there are only two registered color trademarks: the 7-Eleven supermarket chain, which is well-known throughout Japan, and the MONO tricolor! This means that no other company is allowed to use this color combination.

MONO stands for the highest quality, precision, and perfection.

These products help you perform at your best—they make your life easier.

For all kinds of creative activities at school, in college, or at work.
