Penco Stapler - Navy

The industrial desk stapler that lasts. Steel construction, hammer-painted finish, uses No.10 staples. Weighs 130g.

Why This Exists

The Penco Stapler is designed to outlive every plastic stapler you've ever owned. Built from solid steel with a hammer-painted finish, it's a desk tool that feels substantial in your hand and sits with authority on your desk — the kind of object that makes you want to keep it visible rather than hidden in a drawer.

The hammer-painted coating isn't just for looks — it reinforces and smooths the surface while giving the stapler its characteristic industrial texture. The compact size means it fits neatly in desk drawers or pencil cases, but the 130g weight gives it enough heft to staple cleanly without sliding around. Compatible with standard No.10 staples (the most common size globally), it's simple to refill and built to handle everyday stapling without jamming. The design invites a bit of pareidolia — some say it looks like a friendly face chomping through your papers.
