Kaweco

[3] Current products under the Kaweco brand include fountain, rollerball, digital and dip pens, and mechanical pencils.

The businessmen Heinrich Koch and Rudolph Weber took over the dip pen factory in 1889 and set-up a new production facility in Handschuhsheim, right outside of Heidelberg.

In 1914 Kaweco assumed control over the former parts provider A. Morton & Co., which at the time was the oldest gold nib factory in New York.

In 1929 fountain pen factory Knust, Woringen & Grube from Wiesloch (Aurumia brand) purchased the Kaweco company name, machines, stock, and patents.

During World War II, a lack of raw materials and manpower nearly led to a complete production shut down.

In 1971 Kaweco launched the Sport set, which included a special jewelry pendant, as a licensed writing instrument of the 20th Olympic Games in Munich.

In 1994, cosmetics company Gutberlet GmbH, based in Nuremberg, registered the rights to the Kaweco name and brand.

Individual pen designs are created with cooperation partners like Supreme New York, Microsoft, NOMOS Glashütte, Oris., and many others.
