Pilot are a Japanese pen company with a European HQ and factory near Annecy in France. The first Pilot pens were produced in Japan in 1918. 

They are now well known for their Frixion range of pens which use heat-reactive ink which 'disappears' when friction is used to generate heat.

Pilot constantly innovates while their focus on sustainably limits the impact on the planet. Transforming pens to make them even more eco-friendly is a genuine technological and human feat.

More than a philosophy, the DO BETTER WITH LESS principle represents their approach aimed at reducing the ecological impact of pen production while preserving standards of quality and innovation.
