About edding

A family-owned company founded in Hamburg in 1960, edding has more than six decades of expertise in the design, manufacture, and distribution of reliable, high-end branded products. The company’s core values include social and environmental responsibility. In the course of the current strategic transformation, sustainable action is becoming even more central to the edding Group: as a profit-for organisation, the medium-sized company no longer sees economic success as the main goal, but rather as a resource for doing good. But not only that – wherever edding operates as a business, it seeks to encourage individuals to express and visualise their personality, their thoughts, ideas, and feelings. Through its edding, Legamaster and Playroom brands, the company offers premium products and solutions for private and professional requirements. Famous for its permanent markers, the edding range includes markers and writing implements for the home, the office and for industry, along with products to help unleash creativity and tattoo inks. Innovative digital applications round off the range. Legamaster develops and sells products for visual communication, opening up new forms of workplace collaboration, leading to greater interaction, creativity and higher productivity. The portfolio includes traditional products such as flipcharts and whiteboards, as well as electronic solutions such as interactive e-Screens. The Playroom brand, part of the edding Group since 2021, offers innovative concepts and services to promote a culture of innovation within companies and organisations. As a company with an international dimension, edding is based in Ahrensburg near Hamburg. The company also has branches and distribution partners across the globe. In 2022, the Group earned consolidated sales of EUR 159.2 million and had an average staff count of 735.
