Suitable for cardboard or thick paper

During creative activities, erasing a line drawn with a pencil on cardboard can be difficult. This is where the blue eraser comes in handy. Its harder structure allows you to erase without excessive rubbing and does not damage the surface.   A practical tool for lovers of creative hobbies.

Why can it still be found in school pencil cases?

Good question. Because in reality most children only use the pink or white part, leaving the blue part intact. And yet it is sold every year. No doubt because it has become   a classic in stationery  , a kind of Proustian madeleine. It soothes, brings back childhood memories and brings joy to parents, although it is not necessarily the most suitable for school.

The right reaction: choose the rubber band according to its purpose

If you simply want to erase a pencil from a piece of paper, a regular eraser will be more than adequate—and often more economical. However, the blue part should be reserved for  more specific  uses. This will help you avoid waste and better customize your equipment.
