<“MONO Day” symbol>

Tombow Pencil Co., Ltd. has designated November 1st as “MONO Day.” MONO Day was certified and registered as a “commemorative day” by the Japan Anniversary Association (headquarters: Saku City, Nagano Prefecture) on January 11th of this year.
Starting this year, we will be positioning November 1st as a day to thank our MONO fans and will deepen communication with them through user participation campaigns and other activities.
The reason why the anniversary was chosen as November 1st is because MONO comes from the Greek word “MONOS,” which means “one and only,” and the date with consecutive “1”s is appropriate. Also, the MONO symbol mark is a three-color stripe of blue, white, and black, so the date with three “1”s standing up is appropriate.
