Senator Pens – Writing the Way to a Better Planet

Based and made in Germany since 1920, Senator Pens have produced and developed writing instruments for over 100 years. The extensive knowledge and production know-how that comes from this gives you confidence and assurance regarding the quality of their promotional pens.

Sustainable focus

Senator pride themselves on the fact that their “materials and production processes are designed to be free of harmful substances, ecologically compatible, waste avoiding and recyclable”. Nearly 100% of their production waste is reused or recycled – now that’s impressive! They have a real focus on the environment and adapting business to become more sustainable; to provide branded merchandise to everyone while reducing their environmental impact. All their pens are manufactured in their German factory using CO2-neutral 100% hydro-powered electricity. This allows for much shorter journeys to customers compared to the typical branded pen, as does being printed and finished in the UK. An exciting development in recent years, Senator is now certified carbon neutral!

Their focus on bioplastic pens made them a front-runner in the promotional industry for sustainability. Derived from sugar cane, these products have proved popular and are a great alternative to standard plastic pens. The recycled options are made with more than 95% recycled materials – another great planet-friendly choice.

Reduce, reuse, REFILL, recycle…

Senator products are designed to be long-lasting and they have developed features to extend this further such as pen refills. Their magic flow refills write for up to 5000m, and offer free refills once is it empty. All you have to do is visit refills.senator.com and upload a photo of your Senator pen! This is a great scheme that can seriously prolong the life of the pen, keeping your brand in customers’ minds for years to come. Don’t forget to remind the end user of this option – it can be a great conversation tool and shows your business wants to work with them to be more sustainable.

Future proofing

The main focus for Senator currently is their range of bio-based products and recycled options. They are forward-thinking, looking to move their entire range to sustainable items in the future. They feel this is important to phase out standard plastic wherever possible.

Another focus is their newly expanded drinkware product range, which are also all German manufactured. The Thermo Mug ‘King Can’ is an alternative to takeaway coffee cups, designed to be refilled and easily carried around with you.
