The company is also distributor of several brands in Sweden, such as Sheaffer, Staedtler and Cross, which allow Ballograf to expand its variety to fountain and rollerball pens.
Production subsequently increased and the business moved to Krokslätt Street in Mölndal, with the company now called Ballografverken, where Fritz Schaechter remained until 1951 as head of development.
Ballograf was early in launching a ballpoint pen with a push mechanism, which delivered increased user friendliness.
In 1959, the company was bought by the French BIC Group, as they wanted to establish their business in the Scandinavian office supplies market.
During 2004, BIC decided to sell the brand, along with manufacture of Ballograf products, to the General Manager of the Nordic operation.
