MUMBAI: The German Design Council has awarded the Faber-Castell’s Grip fountain pen with the German Design Award 2020 in the category of “Excellent Product Design”. The international expert jury, consisting of brand experts from different disciplines, praised its “outstanding design quality”.

The Grip fountain pen is an ideal daily companion for students, teenagers, young professionals and anyone who still enjoys using analogue writing implements. Thanks to its characteristic design and ergonomic soft grip zone, writing for longer spells is no problem for both right-handers and left-handers alike. Its sophisticated nib and ink combination ensures that it glides silkily and effortlessly across the paper. The Grip fountain pen has a robust stainless steel nib and stable stainless steel clip and is available in four nib widths and eight designs.

The German Design Award recognises innovative products and projects, and their manufacturers and designers are pioneering in the German and international design landscape. It is given by the German Design Council, which was created by the German parliament in 1953 and endowed by the Confederation of German Industry (BDI). The award supports the economy in achieving added brand value through design.
