Testimonials
NotJustPencil is more than just a product — it’s a purpose. In our school’s sustainability program in Dubai, these pencils have become a symbol of eco-conscious learning. The fact that they’re made by rural women in India adds so much depth to the story. Our students not only love using them, but they’ve also learned how every small choice can contribute to a bigger impact. Truly a global product with a heart.

As an artist who cares deeply about sustainability, I’m constantly looking for tools that align with my values. The NotJustPencil Sketch Set has impressed me with its quality and environmental ethos. The rich tones and durability are perfect for sketching, and the recycled paper design is brilliant. It feels great knowing my tools contribute to both the planet and a social cause.
