The first new launch is the BIC Cristal® Large, which has a 1.6 mm nib size for bold, vivid and even writing. The pen has a transparent hexagonal barrel which provides a visible ink level and comfortable handling.
The second new product is BIC Cristal® Clic Gel, which has a 0.7 mm nib and gel ink for steady, smooth writing. With a retractable nib and an ink that glides over paper, this is the perfect pen for general, every day use.
While the original BIC Cristal® ball pen is as popular today as when it was introduced in 1950, it is BIC's continued product innovation which makes the BIC Cristal® Family a firm favourite.
BIC has sold an amazing 100 billion ball point pens across the world, which is enough to draw a line to the moon and back 320,000 times.
As with all BIC products, users can be confident that Cristal® products will provide real durability and quality day after day.
Yolande De Trogoff, marketing manager at BIC UK, comments: ""The BIC Cristal® brand has gone from strength to strength and the launch of these new products reflects this success. Both pens are extremely appealing for everyday use in the classroom."
