Pelikan is a globally renowned writing instruments manufacturing company incepted in 1838 in Germany. The brand has a vast range of high quality products in various categories — fine writing instruments, stationery supplies, art and hobby paints, aimed to inspire creativity and imagination among people, encouraging them to express better.

What began as an ink and paint factory by Carl Hornemann in Hannover, Germany, witnessed a change of ownership in 1871 when the other founding father of Pelikan, Gunther Wagner came onboard and registered his family crescent, the Pelican, as a trademark for the company. Since then, Pelikan grew into a success story, with good management and vast expansions, enlarged factories and pioneering products. The Pelikan logo is now one of the oldest registered trademarks in Germany.

In 1929, Pelikan invented the first fountain pen with an innovative plunger piston mechanism and thereafter started inventing writing instruments for use in schools and offices as well as high valued writing instruments. Over the decades, the brand invented more products in the range of school and office stationery, art and hobby paints and other accessories, soon becoming a total stationery solutions provider.

Today, Pelikan Group under the helm of Pelikan International Corporation Berhad (“Pelikan International”) manufactures and distributes Pelikan products to over 160 countries and runs eight manufacturing facilities worldwide. The company is helmed by Mr Loo Hooi Keat as its Chief Executive Officer, President and Executive Director and manages four brands under its umbrella, namely — Pelikan, Herlitz, Geha and Susy Cards.

Proud of its German heritage, technology and craftsmanship, Pelikan strives to maintain the brand’s good reputation that stands for high quality, innovation, reliability, diversity and creativity in its product offerings.
