More About Berol

More Information About Berol Pens

It’s hard to imagine a school cupboard without a pot of Berol pens. What’s even harder to imagine is that Berol pens began way back in 1856, by Daniel Berolzheimer in New York City. Eventually, Berol pens came to the UK in 1894 and would later go on to open a factory in Tottenham in 1907.

During World War 2, the factory pivoted to producing secret military equipment. In the post war period, the company recovered, and by 1969, they had changed their company name to Berol, adopting a short version of their founder's surname. During the twentieth century, Berol became known and loved for its wide range of writing instruments and art materials in schools and offices.

By 1989, Berol had acquired Osmiroid International and expanded its product range. They were then sold to Empire Pencil Corporation in 1987 and acquired by the Newell Company in 1995. The Berol factories in Tottenham and King's Lynn were eventually closed in 2010. Although manufacturing ceased, Berol today survives under Newell Brands and imports the products.
