Pour le Comte Faber-Castell, fournir aux clients des expériences de consommation uniques grâce à des produits exclusifs, est crucial pour réussir à long terme. Les valeurs fondatrices inculquées par Lothar von Faber – s’efforcer de maintenir la meilleure qualité mais également un engagement social et responsable- sont restées inchangées jusqu’à ce jour.
250 YEARS OF QUALITY
The company was founded in 1761, and from the mid-19th century developed into the major manufacturer of wood-cased pencils, both graphite and colour.
Baron Lothar von Faber turned the humble pencil into the world‘s first brand-name writing implement.
The Faber-Castell company takes its name from Ottilie von Faber’s marriage in 1898 to Count Alexander zu Castell-Rüdenhausen, a scion of one of the oldest noble families in Germany.
Inspired by selected writing instruments produced by my ancestors, I saw it as a personal challenge to rediscover these products of a past age, and to bring them up to date with timeless design and the use of modern technology. This idea took shape as the Graf von Faber-Castell Collection.
