The Brass Factory
Brass is made from predominantly copper that is mixed with zinc. The two elements are both melted down and then combined together in an electric furnace before being moulded into shape.
Our Brass Products
We use brass in the mechanism for our Natural Grass Pencil, our environmentally-friendly and refillable pencil made from a mixture of meadow grass and a small amount of BPA free plastic.
