The average school in America will use close to 250,000 pieces of paper each year, with almost 4 billion trees cut down annually across the globe to support this industry.

From backpacks, to pens, to even rubber bands and calculators, they infuse creativity and sustainability into the designs of all their products. With consistency in their values and transparency in their production, materials, and values, Onyx and Green is helping to find new solutions in the office supply industry.

I bought these as a gift so I’m not sure how well they work. My rating is for their style. I love how unique they look!

These pencils are great but they’re not the best for toddlers or younger kids learning colors as they’re mostly all white and it’s hard to see the color part of them to tell which color the pencil is. Again, not a problem for older kiddos but with young ones still learning, it can be a bit tricky. Great pencil though and we do love them

These pencils are fabulous and I’d buy them again. No quality issues. The only thing I would say is if you have younger kids learning colors and doing lots of coloring at school (my oldest just started kinder) it can be a bit difficult for them to tell which color it is, cause the body of the pencils are all white and so my oldest often holds the pencil up and says something like “is this orange?” But I still think they’re great pencils and would absolutely buy them again

Bought these along with many other items for a Congratulations You’re Going to College! for my niece. She loves them and especially that they’re earth friendly. She drew on the envelope with them for my Thank You note.

They don’t have a lot of pigment so they color quite pale. I use them as an alternative to highlighters since they shade lightly.

I really like these colored pencils! They are made from old newspapers but they are still a quality pencil. They feel good in the hand, the colors are very nice and bright, variety of colors (24!), sharpen easily, coloring is smooth – no dragging or chunks. Very nice item!

Hi Yaritza, these colored pencils are not compostable. However, we do have these Plantable Colored Pencils which are 100% biodegradable and will decompose when buried! You can also plant them and watch them grow into herbs, flowers, or vegetables!
