Paper Mate is a trademark of Sanford L.P., a Newell Rubbermaid company. Sanford L.P. is a company that produces stationery and office products. They are best known[citation needed] for their "PhD multi pen/pencil/stylus", which is endorsed by the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) for the reduced writing fatigue produced by its grip to the hand.[1]

Paper Mate's wood pencils do not contain rainforest wood.[citation needed] A majority, if not all, of their pencils are made in the USA.[citation needed] The most popular mechanical lead pencil is the Clearpoint.[citation needed]

Paper Mate also manufactures Pink Pearl erasers.

Types of pencils/pens

Retired and Vintage Pens

The 98 Pen was so named as it retailed at 98 cents in the stores. The ballpoint pen was supplied with a standard refill, but this could be replaced with a jumbo refill. (The jumbo refill is still sold today). The "regular" Paper Mate pen, the lowest priced pen, with a solid-coloured barrel and cap and the "Write Bros." pen, with a white barrel and coloured cap have been merged into each other as of 2008. Now, the "regular" Paper Mate pen carries the name "Paper Mate Write Bros.".
