About Creator Pena Bolpoin

Creator adalah pena bolpoin modular yang dirakit sendiri oleh penggunanya. Bodi logam yang berlubang memperlihatkan sekrup, pegas, dan struktur mekanis di dalamnya. Aksesori eksternal dengan berbagai warna, bentuk, dan material terhubung melalui antarmuka universal, sehingga komponen-komponennya dapat disatukan seperti balok susun dan setiap pena menjadi personal. Bodinya terbuat sepenuhnya dari logam. Kecuali isi ulang dan pegas, sebagian besar komponen diselesaikan dalam satu proses dan materialnya sepenuhnya dapat didaur ulang, sehingga mengurangi penggunaan energi dan limbah material.
