Colored pencils BIC Tropicolors — wood, multicolour set (BIC 832567)

BIC Tropicolors colored pencils are wooden, multicolour pencils designed for everyday colouring, sketching and classroom use. Each pencil features a pigment-based core encased in a hexagonal wooden barrel for comfortable grip and controlled strokes. The set offers a range of vibrant colours with good coverage, suitable for children and adults working on hobby projects, school assignments or general illustrations.

Advantages

These wooden coloured pencils combine a pigment-based lead with a construction that helps reduce breakage when sharpened. The coloured core is glued to the wooden casing using a water-based adhesive to improve durability. The hexagonal shape prevents rolling and provides a secure hold for prolonged drawing sessions. Colours are formulated to deliver vivid tones and reliable coverage across paper surfaces.

• Everyday colouring for children and adults

How to use

Select a pencil colour appropriate for your design and sharpen with a standard pencil sharpener. Apply light to medium pressure for fine lines or layering, and increase pressure gently for more intense colour coverage. Use the hexagonal barrel to maintain a comfortable grip and consistent control. When blending colours, work in thin layers and overlap strokes to achieve smooth transitions.

Usage recommendations

Store pencils horizontally or in a pencil case to avoid warping; keep away from moisture. For best results on paper, use quality drawing or sketch paper and sharpen as needed with a well-maintained sharpener. Supervise young children during use and handle sharpeners safely.
