Color Cosmetic Packaging: A Certified Green Pencil

Faber-Castell has launched a line of pencils named Truly Natural. The pencils are made from Forest Stewardship Council–certified wood.

The pencils’ caps are made from a type of “cellulose fiber,” says a company representative, saying that the company declines to disclose the exact type of resin that is used. The representative does say that the resin is not PLA, and that it is biodegradable.

The makeup formula encased in the wood pencil is 95% natural and has been certified by ECOCERT.
