Mysterious Crayon – Introducing KITPAS Art Crayons

Rich ideas are important for art...?

Uuuups!
Children drawing on the windowpane!
My God!!
And drawing on the bathtub this time?!

You must be thinking, "This is a lot of work to clean up!" But don't worry!
KITPAS Art Crayons can be used on smooth surfaces such as windows and mirrors, and can be easily wiped off with a damp cloth.
The bath version is even easier to wipe clean than the regular KITPAS Art Crayons.

KITPAS encourages all generations to enjoy the "graffiti culture".

 

Crayons that are designed not only for quality, but also for health, environment, and safety

KITPAS Art Crayons, with their smooth drawing and vivid colors, are made with many things in mind.
They are made of wax derived from rice bran produced in Japan, making them safe even if children put them in their mouths.
Because they are water-soluble, the crayons can be dissolved in water for use as pigments or in a wide range of other applications, making these paints enjoyable for both children and adults.

It is designed to float to avoid accidents that may occur when trying to pick up a sunken KITPAS shapes from the bathtub.

How was it? There were a lot of unique art kits, weren't there? However, these products were not simply created with unique ideas or technologies. The common thread among them was that they were created through the cooperation of companies, pooling their knowledge and working towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
