Caran d’Ache, a love affair with Colour - With a worldwide reputation for the quality and beauty of its creations, Caran d’Ache applies its Swiss-made expertise to develop writing instruments and Fine-Arts products.

Born of the passion of its founder for Colour, the Maison has remained loyal to its roots. The pencils, pastels and paints that are designed, developed and manufactured entirely in the Geneva workshops, keep alive the tradition it holds so dear.

Caran d’Ache is one of the few pencil producers with FSC® certification. Received in 2004, it covers not only the raw materials but the entire production process and workshops. All Caran d’Ache pencils are certified as made from wood that comes from strictly managed forests with guaranteed reforestation programmes.
