ABOUT Manley

At Manley, our team includes expert professionals with experience in the stationery, arts and crafts sectors to guarantee product excellence.

Our famous range of Manley wax crayons comes in a huge range of colours, with options for all tastes and artistic needs. The pigments and high quality base ensure a smooth, even application. Manley wax crayons are snap-resistant and blend easily, making them ideal for all settings from school to tutoring in art techniques.

Beyond wax crayons, we provide products tailored to those taking their first steps into the fine art world. Wooden pencils, acrylic and gouache paints, watercolours and more... All designed with light fastness and pigmentation in mind.

At Manley we want our customers to get the best, which is why we ensure that our products comply with current European regulations including Directive 2009/48/EC on the Safety of Toys and Directive 2001/95/EC on General Product Safety. We also carry out exhaustive quality controls prior to products reaching you at home.

We want to give the environment the special attention it needs. Which is why we put eco-design first, using recycled cardboard for our packaging to minimise plastic use, and implementing renewable energy systems across our production facilities. We're replacing more and more of the plastic in our products with more sustainable materials:

• Our packaging is PVC-free and PP-free. Instead, we use cardboard and trays made in PET plastic; easily recycled, and the least polluting type.
• We use FSC certified (Forest Stewardship Council) cardboard boxes, guaranteeing they derive from responsible and sustainable sources.
• And at Manley, our pencils are also FSC certified, showing that the wood used in our pencil manufacturing comes from sources that preserve forest biodiversity.

Our goal is for all our packaging to be cardboard only by 2030.
