Penol

Penol series of markers

The characteristic caps with a diagonal rim not only provide all members of Penol family with an easy recognizable, almost iconographic image, but with functional features as well.

Caps clearly indicate colour, they can be easily removed with the fingers of one hand, they fit to the end of the cartridge and the click provides a clear signal that the cap is properly closed. The rim also prevents the markers from rolling.
