Manufacturers list incomplete?

i came across the manufacturers list on pencils and i am not sure it is complete. the sources lack, yes, but if i check trade (exports) from countries of pencils, i see also Brazil, Indonesia and others quite high up by volume. see comptradeplus.un.org lookup code HS 9609 anyone knows how to search for such infos more thoroughly?

i restructured it slightly and extended it from memory and from the pencil museum of the brandnamepencils. still unsure what to do with the table. should i extract some trade data and assemble graphs of production of pencils by country? or we extend it with other data?

another open question: Lyra was aquired by F.I.L.A. in 2008 so should we remove it from the table? Lyra brand is listed under the FILA entry. Damir Perisa (talk) 17:25, 2 January 2026 (UTC)
