uni-ball and uni are brands of pens and pencils, made by the Mitsubishi Pencil Company (三菱鉛筆株式会社 Mitsubishi Enpitsu Kabushiki Kaisha, TYO: 7976) of Japan. The brand currently has several lines of pens including: Jetstream, Vision Elite, 207, eye and Power Tank RT.
Mitsubishi Pencil Company distributes products in over 100 countries through subsidiaries, such as Mitsubishi Pencil Company UK. Sanford distributes uni-ball in the United States and Canada, and Faber-Castell does so for Germany. Despite its naming and the near identical logomarks, Mitsubishi Pencil Company is unrelated to the Mitsubishi Group,[2] and has never been a part of their zaibatsu.
