• What Types of Crayola Chalk Do You Manufacture?

  Crayola® manufactures two types of chalk, extruded and molded.

  
  

  Extruded chalk, such as Crayola Anti-Dust® White Chalk, primarily contains calcium carbonate. Molded chalk, such as Crayola Children's Chalk (available in white or colors), is a softer chalk, and is not dustless.  This type of chalk is recommended for children's chalkboards as well as construction paper, cardboard boxes and paper bags. 

  
  

  Crayola Sidewalk Chalk is a molded chalk that is not intended for use on chalkboard surfaces. It does not include calcium carbonate. This product contains Plaster of Paris which has a gritty texture and may scratch your chalkboard.

• Who invented the crayon and what is the history of Crayola Crayons?

  Crayola® did not invent the crayon. The "modern" crayon originated in Europe, initially made from a mixture of charcoal and oil, later replaced by powdered pigments. Wax was later substituted for oil, making the sticks sturdier and easier to handle.

  
  

  In 1902, Crayola Crayons were invented by Binney & Smith and first offered for sale in 1903. The trade name "Crayola" was coined by Mrs. Edwin Binney, combining "craie" (French for chalk stick) and "oleaginous" (oily).

  
  

  Crayola manufactures over 3 billion crayons each year, primarily made from paraffin wax and color pigment. Learn more about Crayola's colorful history on Crayola's history page.
