The Sommelier Tate - Sustainable Paper Waste Pencils With Sustainable Container

Tate is our eco friendly newspaper waste pencils

We have started working with a sustainable product manufacture to supply us with a product that replaces new wood by recycling newspaper waste. These pencils are hard as wood and so this is us doing our bit to save the planet. Small changes and 100% wood-free.

Based on the material and process, these pencils may vary in surface design and colour.

Each pencil is handmade from newspaper waste

Approx 17cm long

Works just like a normal pencil, no special use

Made with waste that would have otherwise been put in landfill or burned

These pencils will come with a varied collection of especially sourced sustainable containers, including some glass silver top containers
