Sailor Pen Presents the Hard Maple Fountain Pen

Sailor Pen Co., led by President Mitsu Tamura and headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, is set to release the "Hard Maple Fountain Pen" on May 31, 2025. This special edition will be available at Sailor Pen retailers worldwide, presenting a unique opportunity for pen enthusiasts.

Unique Construction with WPC Technology

The Hard Maple Fountain Pen utilizes a specialized processing technique that incorporates plastic particles into wood, known as WPC (Wood Plastic Combination). This innovative approach allows for a consistent color finish without the common challenges associated with natural wood, enhancing its luxurious appearance with a satin finish that showcases the natural beauty of the maple wood.

WPC combines the best attributes of wood and plastic, ensuring enhanced mechanical strength, dimensional stability, weather resistance, fire resistance, and chemical resistance, all while maintaining the beauty of natural wood. Notably, it exhibits superior wear resistance. Due to these characteristics, WPC is often used in various applications, including flooring, stair treads, railings, furniture, boat paddles, archery bows, ski boards, keys, knife handles, and even in products such as bagpipes, sleepers, and golf club heads overseas.

Color Options Available

The Hard Maple Fountain Pen is available in three stunning color variations:

• - Natural: Features the original color of maple wood, enhancing its rustic grain with a sophisticated touch.
• - Indigo: A rich hue reminiscent of traditional indigo dyeing in crafts, providing a deep color that subtly accentuates your writing experience.
• - Vermilion: This refined color, translating from the Japanese “朱色”, evokes a classic aesthetic often found in high-end instruments like guitars and violins. It enjoys persistent popularity both domestically and internationally.
