In 1982 a new innovative Italian writing instruments manufacturer was established through the partnership of Nino Marino, Ciro Matrone and Mario Muscente, named Delta S.r.l. From the beginning, Delta has chosen only the highest product standards to enter into the very demanding and competitive international consumer market. Delta has chosen to control every aspect of the pen manufacturing process in its Southern Italian facility under the watchful eyes of skilled artisans. In 1995, Delta was the first company in the world to reintroduce the rare and intriguing antique lateral lever filling system, a system introduced in early 1990’s and very much treasured by pen collectors. A system perfected by Delta to make it very reliable. Products manufactured using special resins, turned by hand from solid bar, and precious metals, materials of unquestionable level of richness which are synonyms of quality and reliability, Delta, artigiani della scrittura (craftsmen of writing), is one of the few companies in the writing instruments field that is still all Italian.
