OLEENU Shield Mechanical Pencils

The OLEENU series was released five years ago. It is mechanical pencil technology that protects the lead from the shock of falling or pressure of the writing, with further improvement on lead resistance. This new design improves lead resistance by approximately 1.5 times more compared to its predecessor, which on the overall is about 15 times stronger than a standard mechanical pencil from our company. 

OLEENU Sharp had been released as a first attempt in improving current lead resistant mechanical pencils in the market. It gained good reputation especially among students. A stress free not easily breakable lead holding mechanical pencil, allowing for long hours of non-interrupted flow of thought makes this series a favorite. After five years of market research, we made further improvements to the existing design then. In addition to the OLEENU mechanism, a dual structure pen tip cover called OLEENU Shield was successfully incorporated, protecting the lead from exterior shock. The two walls work as a single shield strengthening the lead resistance structure. This new structure offers an improvement on the bending strength of lead thus improving stability while writing without having to exert much pressure. There is a visible 20% size reduction in terms of the mechanical pencil body as compared to the previous model, making it an easy fit for most pen cases. Providing stability and minimal stress while writing, at the same time suppressing breakage of lead, OLEENU Shield is the cutting-edge mechanical pencil. 

How It Works

• The lead is held by two separate parts, the tip and the part that pushes the lead out. Four new parts are added filling the gap between the two parts, thus holding the lead at a 360-degree angle. This structure makes the lead resistant to shocks - OLEENU Guard mechanism.
• The spring inside protects lead from breaking when you write with strong pressure - Safety Slide mechanism.
• When the lead is being used while writing, pushing the tip of the pencil on paper triggers the guide pipe to move down and push out lead by 1mm - Point Push function.
• A guide pipe at the tip protects lead when it is not in use - Pipe Slide mechanism.
• It is designed to minimize lead wastage.
• OLEENU Shield allows you to use lead up to the last 1mm, while general mechanical pencils (in comparison to our existing products) allow up to 12.9mm.
• Wastage is reduced by 11.9mm. When the next lead is filled. - Zero Shin mechanism.
• The dual structure pen tip cover improves lead protection and shock absorption. - OLEENU Shield mechanism.

PTB-50000BM Marble Ebonite Fountain Pen

The impressive marble finish on this pen makes you marvel at the level of craftsmanship Platinum pen makers have achieved over the century. It is not anything you'd expect from a distinguished brand but rather something you'd expect from highly-skilled artisans with superior knowledge on the inner-workings of a pen, in this case a fountain pen. The Platinum brand is not just about pens, fountain pens and double action pens. If a brand has got esteemed character and is full of history, and that brand comes from a land rich with insider knowledge of advanced technology in so many fields, rich culture that permeates throughout the globe, then that brand has got a good foundation in quality. Platinum excels in many stations of quality and design, the science of which many pen makers may know but is usually not appreciated in this era of tables and smartphones. Platinum pens are a breed of pens all in a class of its own.

Presenting the Sensy 2

It is finally here.

The age of smartphones and tablets is at hand. Everything around us moves and changes with but a touch of a finger. Enter the touch screen pen. The Sensy 2 is a touch screen pen, recommended for people who have dexterity problems using their fingers on a touch screen, for people who want to avoid leaving fingerprints, or for individuals who've long nails and wish not to introduce stress to either nail or screen. The Sensy 2 touch screen pen is a high tech touch screen pen, making it ideal for diverse applications such as text entry or games such as puzzles, which usually requires greater accuracy.

The pen's weight has been cut down by 50% compared to the first Sensy, a feathered down 8.3g and this keeps costs down. The stylus is bi-functional, allowing the user an option of either a touch screen pen or a fine nib marker pen.

Definitely a more creative and technological approach towards daily use in business, schools or personal life.

The new micro brush is made of conductive fibers that enables users to maximize leverage on the touch pen's sensitivity. The 3.3mm diameter pen tip increases screen touch area therefore making it easier to manipulate.

• The stylus is made of bundled conductive fibers to provide better sensitivity compared to silicone rubber nibs.
• A pliable tip ensures response even with the slightest touch when used on screen surfaces without leaving any marks.
• The fiber brush allows for smoother strokes and a writing experience that is second to none.
• The fiber brush is designed for greater control and accuracy.
• The stylus is made up of conductive fibers that maintain performance without reducing sensitivity even after its 10,000th use as proven in a test environment.
•  A metal axis is typically used in touch pens. In Sensy 2 a resin axis incorporating high-tech metal conductive patterns allows a further reduction of total pen weight.
• Sensy 2 is a sophisticatedly designed light capped pen that supports use in a variety of diverse environments such as when doing stock management, from warehouses to grocery stores, or even when you need to use tablets wearing gloves or mittens in the kitchen.
