Three years in the making, the BeGreen product line represents Pilot's commitment to providing environmentally friendly writing instruments with the same innovation, technology, focus on quality, and pricing as its non-recycled products. Each Pilot BeGreen writing instrument is made from at least 70% recycled industrial waste material. All products meet or exceed ISO 14001 and 14021 standards for environmentally responsible production. Packaging material is made from recycled board.
How BeGreen works: Post-industrial material is collected, then fed through a shredder in a recycling plant. Plastic is melted and cut into pellets, which are then shaped and reborn as Pilot BeGreen products. Scraps from production of BeGreen products are collected …and the process starts all over again!
