We use organic seeds to make the pencils plantable. They are attached in a tube at the bottom of the pencil, which can be sown after the pencil has been used. In place of an eraser the Sprout Pencil features a water soluble seed capsule so that when it becomes too short to write with it can be planted. The pencil shafts are also sustainable because they don't contain lead, and are made of sustainable wood (wood that comes from sustainably managed forests). Their graphite, clay, and non-GMO seeds are also sustainable. Seeds Grow Fast

The novel idea of creating plantable pencils was originated by three students from the Massachussetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Boston in 2012. It was their idea for the brief, "Design the sustainable office article of tomorrow". All aspects of the Sprout pencil are sustainable and non-toxic – from the biodegradable seed capsule to the 100% natural clay and graphite core and PEFC/FSC-certified wood.If plantable seed pencils are used in place of regular pencils, you can imagine the quantum of wood from trees that can be saved.

You may say that what difference would it make if it is just one person, but we believe that one can make all the difference. Are there any colors available for these pencils? Another difference is the number of seeds and the contents of the capsule. In sprout pencils, the suitable seeds and sterile soil are placed in the gelatinous chamber at the end of the pencil. However, in some modern seed pencils, the soil is removed, and the chances of germination are increased by placing more seeds in the end capsule of the pencil. The third and most crucial difference lies in the material of the pencil body. The pencils are just like ordinary pencils, but instead of having rubber erasers on one end, they are equipped with gelatin capsules that contain the plant seeds. Eco Hub Cebu explains that the capsules are also sustainable because they are preservative-free, are non-GMO, hypoallergenic, and gluten-free. Our Sprout Pencils can be used as standard promotionalpencils and once finished with them, your customers canplant them and watch them grow! Simply place the capsule end into the soil and watch the seeds germinate. The rest of the pencil will biodegrade and decompose.
