From the brand
Kuretake
OUR Origins are rooted in sumi
The Kuretake brand represents the arts and crafts lifestyle with the use of color and shapes.
The colors ‘Black’ represents Tradition and ‘Yellow and Purple’ representing Innovation of brushes, pens and paints to support our customer artistic lifestyle. The shapes of circle, square and triangle represent the creation of arts and crafts.
‘ZIG’ is the brand name for Kuretake’s pen and marker which has been loved by many people.
In the 1970’s, Japan experienced nationwide depression during the post-war recession. People everywhere sought out low priced yet high quality stationery productions, and in this era came the birth of the new ‘Kuretake ZIG’ Fine liner pen. ZIG comes from the word ‘zigzag’, a concept based on the fluid, back and forth motion which comes with writing.
Kuretake Co., Ltd. was established in 1902 at Nara in Japan. Since then, by combining our Sumi Ink(Japanese Calligraphy Ink) with our own technological developments, we have achieved recognition as a manufacturer of high quality stationery products. With confidence that we could utilize our unique knowledge of multi-colored pigment inks, we decided to expand into Art & Crafts industry.

Customers find these glue pens effective for paper and cardstock projects, appreciating their different sizes and tip precision, with one customer noting the fine tip is perfect for intricate word die cuts. The adhesiveness receives mixed feedback – while some say it works well, others report it doesn’t flow out of the pen. The drying time and adhesion are also mixed aspects, with some finding it dries fast and adheres quickly, while others mention it dries too quickly during application and isn’t sticky enough.
