In response to evolving customer needs, Cal Cedar is offering pencils manufactured for its traditional slat customers. These pencils are manufactured to our customers' specifications either at our own Pencil Technical Excellence Center or in conjunction with another pencil manufacturer. By offering this value-added service, our customers can maintain a higher level of manufacturing and marketing flexibility and efficiency. For inquiries regarding our quality raw, semi- or fully finished pencil manufacturing services, please contact us at sales@calcedar.com.

Incense-cedar (Libocedrus decurrens) has long been preferred for pencil manufacturing because of its superior machining and sharpening characteristics and writing performance. Coupled with the FSC certification, ForestChoice™ pencils are the right choice for today's environmentally conscious consumers. Both color and #2 graphite pencils are handsomely packaged and available by the gross (144) and dozen. Carpenter pencils are also available for artists and woodworkers alike.

Ecologically sound, superior in performance, and recognized by its distinctive cedar scent, the Incense-cedar pencil is a global tradition. The Incense Cedar Institute is a marketing association of U.S. Incense-cedar in the production of pencil casings and other products.
