Caran d'Ache, Swiss manufacturer of high-quality writing instruments, and Nespresso present a second edition of this innovative recycling project. The concept: Empty Nespresso coffee capsules made of aluminium are used to manufacture high-quality 849 ballpoint pens – once again in a limited edition to emphasise exclusiveness. This edition is made of green Nespresso capsules. The pen’s engraving underscores its originality. Goliath cartridges in the sizes F, M, L contain enough ink to fill up to 600 A4 pages with handwritten text. The ballpoint tip ensures a clean and clearly legible script.
An appealing and sustainable union
Caran d'Ache und Nespresso are united by shared values such as environmental protection, a claim to Swiss quality design and a drive to achieve positive change. It is these values that transform a disposable product such as the coffee capsules described in the preceding into a writing instrument for sustainable use. A special aluminium alloy was developed specifically for the 849 ballpoint pen. The result is an elegant accessory that comes in packaging made of recyclable cardboard. A benefit to everyone who appreciates the art of handwriting and environmental protection in day-to-day life.
