Innovative Package Fairfield, CT (January 7, 2008) Acme United Corporation & Product Ventures have once again joined forces and are now being honored for their outstanding, safe, and hands-on tools that have been designed specifically for the classroom environment. The dynamic duo was recently selected as a recipient of the Teachers’ Choice Awards for their innovative pencil sharpener, the Westcott Brand iPoint™ Pencil Sharpener. |
| The Teachers’ Choice Awards were founded in 1994 and are a very prestigious accolade to receive in the educational world. The awards honor only those with the utmost practical and exceptional classroom products. The program seeks to recognize innovations that allow teachers and students alike to utilize tools that are both practical and secure, while assuring the safety of all users. Peter Clarke, Founder and CEO of Product Ventures, said, “We are both honored and privileged to be recipients of this prominent award. Education is an invaluable resource, and it is our dedicated teachers working with today’s youth that we must not overlook. Our youth is where our future lies, and we are honored to provide them with well-designed and innovative products to guide them in their learning.” The iPoint is reshaping the way people look at pencil sharpeners, as it intends for sharpening to become a hands-free process. The pencil mechanically ejects itself when it has reached the optimum point so that time is not wasted trying to establish when the perfect point has been attained. The Westcott Brand iIPoint™ Pencil Sharpener can be found in retail stores across the country, and it can be ordered through many leading commercial catalogs.
