edding AG is a German company manufacturing writing and marking tools such as felt-tip pens and permanent markers.
The company's products are immensely popular in Europe, leading to the brand name "Edding" being widely used as a generic name for permanent markers.
edding AG was founded in 1960 in Hamburg by Carl-Wilhelm Edding and Volker Detlef Ledermann. At that time they started with a start-up capital of just 500 Deutsche Mark.
In 1965 they established the group brand planMASTER and started to sell products for planning and visual communication.
By the end of 1970, almost 100 million edding felt- and fibre-tipped pens had been sold across the world. Eight years later the Group presented its first ever paint marker with an opaque, which is suitable even on darker surfaces.
Shares have been traded on the stock exchange since 1986. In the same year, Edding Vertrieb GmbH was founded as a distribution and logistics centre for the German market. It is still based in Wunstorf near Hannover to this day.
In 1992 edding founded V.D. Ledermann & Co. GmbH in Bautzen.
Since 2005 the company is headed by Per Ledermann, the son of the co-founder. In 2008, edding introduces its EcoLine range of products. This series includes permanent markers and board markers with at least 90% of the total plastic used being made from recycled material.
