During the 1970s, and what is commonly referred to as the Taiwanese Economic Miracle, the previous generation of course had no access to the Internet or even many common business networking channels. John, the founder of LABAN, flew around the world with only a suitcase, working to build a promising future for the pen industry in Taiwan. Due to the increased costs, outsourcing and offshoring in the industry, and fierce price competitions, what remained in Taiwan were old clients, old masters, and old crafts... All of a sudden, even the idea of handwriting became "old-school". From the very beginning, LABAN focused on bringing back the pride and joy of using a finely made instrument to handwrite on a daily basis. While doing so, they began to reach an ever increasing number of customers new to this world of fine writing.

The use of liquid ink flowing through a finely made writing instrument elevates the task of writing to a new level. Every carefully formed letter, each single word becomes more meaningful, each stroke of the pen records the unique aspects of our lives. Writing changes from a simple recording of information to an art form, one available to anyone who chooses to embrace it.

The manufacturing process of every LABAN pen is a careful mix of art and craft. The techniques range from the high tech of CNC to machine a wide variety of colorful acrylics, turning fine materials from the past of pen making, such as ebonite or celluloid, to the creation of intricately crafted decorations in precious metals. The limited edition Dragon Pen in 2004 was awarded The Best Writing Instrument by Lewis Clark, Royal Academy of Arts in the UK. LABAN also once built a collaborative partnership with Musei del Vaticano, and became the honorary signature pen of Pope Benedict XVI.
