Schneider were originally established in 1938 by Christian Schneider and Erwin Blum under the company name 'Blum & Schneider'. In the same era that the ballpoint pen was invented, they managed a factory producing screws and turned parts in Tennenbronn, Black Forest.
A decade later, after the news of the ballpoint spreads, the pair decided to create the 'Good Schneider Refill', giving them a foothold in the penmanship industry before growing to be a household name.
In the 1970's, following the death of Christian Schneider, his son Roland takes over the company as sole manager with the aim of making the company a leading international pen manufacturer.
Since then, the family-lead brand has reached many milestones including their collaborations with Frank Groß in 2010 onward.
Schneider is now one of the largest pen manufacturers in the world, creating innovative writing tools with sustainability and consumer impact in mind. They are an extremely moral brand with plenty of creative tools to choose from. With a Schneider pen in hand, you will certainly find yourself inspired to create.
