About Paper Mate
Paper Mate is an iconic American writing instrument brand founded in 1949 by Patrick J. Frawley when his company developed revolutionary instantly drying ink. The pen delivering this ink was named 'The Paper Mate,' and by 1951 Frawley had sold 4 million pens. The brand became a household name by 1953 and spent $2 million on what was then the most expensive pen advertisement in history. The brand has continued innovating throughout its 75+ year history. The Flair felt tip pen launched in 1966, the SharpWriter mechanical pencil arrived in 1984, and the hugely popular InkJoy range debuted in 2011. InkJoy Gel pens were named one of Time magazine's Best Inventions of 2017 for their quick-drying ink that dries 3x faster than competitors. Paper Mate offers a comprehensive range of writing instruments. InkJoy pens deliver smooth, effortless writing with quick-drying ink. FlexGrip pens feature a rubberized grip for extended comfort. The Flair range offers colourful felt tip pens, while Non-Stop mechanical pencils provide reliable everyday writing. The iconic double heart logo, designed by Norman Holtzman over 50 years ago, remains the brand identity today. Now part of Newell Brands alongside Parker, Sharpie, and Waterman, Paper Mate continues to be a trusted stationery staple.
