Why Our Colored Pencils Stand Out

Built for professional artists, trusted by global distributors.

🎨

Rich, Blendable Pigment

High pigment load delivers smooth lay-down, vivid color and effortless blending — the buttery feel professional artists demand.

🛡️

Break-Resistant Core

Bonded, glued-the-full-length cores resist breakage during shipping, sharpening and heavy use — fewer returns, happier buyers.

📦

Full OEM Customization

Custom color counts, barrel printing, logo, tin or paper-box packaging, and private-label branding — your brand, our factory.

Full Product Range

One Factory, Every Colored Pencil Type

From classroom basics to professional artist lines — source your entire colored pencil range from a single reliable supplier.

🖍️

Oil-Based Artist Pencils

Firm cores that hold a sharp point, resist wax bloom and layer cleanly — the pro choice for detailed illustration.

🎨

Soft Wax-Based Pencils

Buttery, highly-pigmented lay-down for effortless blending — perfect for adult coloring, students and hobbyists.

💧

Water-Soluble Pencils

Draw dry, then blend with water for watercolor effects — versatile sets that command a premium retail price.

Metallic & Special Sets

Metallic, pastel, skin-tone and 120/160+ mega sets to differentiate your shelf and capture giftable demand.

FAQ

Wholesale Colored Pencils — Common Questions

What is the MOQ for wholesale colored pencils?+

MOQ is flexible and depends on set size and packaging. Stock items can ship in small trial quantities, while OEM/private-label orders typically start from a few thousand sets. Contact us for current minimums and tiered pricing.

Do you offer OEM and private-label colored pencils?+

Yes. We provide full OEM/ODM services including custom color counts, barrel printing, logo, custom tin or paper-box packaging, and private-label branding. Your brand, our factory.

Are your colored pencils certified safe for the USA & EU?+

Yes. Our colored pencils are EN71-3, ASTM D-4236 and REACH compliant, produced in a BSCI-audited factory, making them ready for retail in the USA, EU and UK.

What's the difference between oil-based and wax-based pencils?+

Wax-based cores lay down softly and blend smoothly, ideal for layering and beginners. Oil-based cores are firmer, hold a sharp point longer and resist wax bloom, preferred by professional artists. We manufacture both, plus water-soluble (watercolor) pencils.

What is the lead time for a colored pencils order?+

Stock items dispatch quickly. Custom OEM orders typically take 25–35 days after artwork and sample approval, depending on quantity and packaging complexity.

Can I get a sample before placing a bulk order?+

Absolutely. We provide samples and a full product catalog for serious B2B buyers. Submit an inquiry with your requirements and our team will arrange sample details within 12 hours.
