BIC is backed by a long history of expertise in making coloured pencils under the BIC Kids brand. Now BIC introduces the BIC Color Up range of colouring pencils and felt pens specially developed for older schoolchildren. Tweens and teens looking for some relaxing fun will love these colouring pencils in their stylish black packaging. From colouring in a map in geography class to just letting the imagination run free, BIC Color Up colouring pencils feature a comfortable triangular design. Their strong leads are easy to sharpen. These pencils come in a range of 12 bright and bold colours that burst like fireworks on paper. A mark of quality, these pencils are made at BIC's own plants in France based on unmatched expertise. Since the beginning, BIC has been making quality writing instruments that fit any budget and are sold all over the world. This mission has made the French company one of the world leaders in office supplies.
