Our ride-or-die essentials.

For a set with no wool husher, click here.

Aluminum Tin: Intentionally slim. Fits just what you need, and nothing you don’t. When it’s worn beyond repair, it’s 100% recyclable.

100% Wool Liner: Keeps contents from rattling around inside the tin. Liner is 100% compostable.

Unpainted Pencil: Our favorite pencil ever. Made from sustainably-forested incense cedar by General’s Pencil Company in New Jersey (one of the last American pencil factories), and not sullied by a coat of paint that creates micro plastics when sharpened (paint is plastic).

Metal Sharpener: German made, compact, and equipped with two replacement blades built in.

Wax Highlighter: These "china markers" have been around for ages, and their bright yellow wax makes them the perfect replacement for disposable plastic highlighters.

Stainless Steel Pen + Refill: Available as an add-on. This substantial stainless steel ballpoint pen is a handsome reminder that pens should not be disposable. Even the extra ink cartridges are plastic free.

Repeat customer

I ordered one of these for myself some time ago and really love it. I’ve been actively trying to rid myself of plastic. The yellow grease pencil highlighter is genius. So I ordered two more as Christmas gifts for my grandchildren, to get them started toward less plastic too.

Thoughtfully sustainable

My 13 y.o. niece absolutely loves her pencil tin and its contents. She was especially intrigued by the non-plastic highlighter.

Pencil tin set

I love this product! I used the yellow highlighter pencil today to draw the base for a timeline for my students. It flows so smoothly on paper! I am incredibly impressed with the seemingly small inconspicuous item!

Everyday necessity!

I treated myself to this set, and I truly use it every day. It fits so nicely in the side pocket of my backpack, so it's handy at both work and home. It includes virtually everything I need, in such a solid, compact case. It's so brightly colored, I never leave it behind!

Love!!!

I love pens and school supplies but there is so much waste involved. This tin is fantastic. The colors are great & the pen is my absolute favorite pen around! Can’t wait to watch this company grow

Wisdom Supply Co. was founded by two plastic pollution activists stunned into action by the staggering waste created every year from the plastic, vinyl, and spiral-bound school supplies the students were instructed to purchase.

The best time to help future adults unlearn wasteful habits was decades and billions of tons ago. The next best time is now.
