Plantable Pencils: What They Are and How They Work

Rippotai plantable pencils are made from recycled paper mixed with chamomile and wormwood seeds. The entire pencil body is plantable, meaning everything you sharpen can be planted and then harvested. There are no non-reusable parts, as the product is designed with zero waste in mind.

What is a plantable pencil?

A plantable pencil is a pencil made of recycled paper that contains seeds. Unlike traditional pencils, it generates zero waste: everything sharpened can be planted. It is an object designed according to the principles of the circular economy and zero waste.

What is the Rippotai plantable pencil made of?

  • Body made of recycled paper mixed with chamomile seeds and wormwood

  • Fully plantable, from the tip to the paint scraps - 0 waste

  • External coating in seaweed paper

  • Designed according to circular economy principles

How it works: from writing to planting

  • It is used like a normal pencil

  • It is tempered when necessary

  • The waste from the tempera contains seeds and can be sown

  • The wood chips are sown in many pots, covering them with a light layer of soil.

  • Water gently, possibly by spraying.

  • After a few weeks, chamomile or wormwood sprout.

Because it's truly a 100% plantable pencil

Many “seeded” pencils contain only a single end cap.
The Rippotai plantable pencil, on the other hand, is made entirely of recycled paper containing seeds, and everything you sharpen can be planted.
