Well, we are definitely on a Kokuyo-inspired run here. First it was about welcoming the brand and introducing the tape-glue dotliners, then it was the 28-edged erasers and this time around, its another great addition to the dotliner range: A tape-glue that has shape of little hearts!
Aptly named Kokuyo Dotliner “Cute”, now you can have a fancy, ‘hearty’, compact and mess-free glue in hand at all times! Not only is the glue super cute, but it is also refillable!
Daily use of glue is now more fun and cute with the pretty hearts instead of the normal glue. Gift wrapping can be pretty and mess free with Dotliner cute. Envelopes can now be sealed with ‘hearts’. (Even hidden places can have cute hearts)
Dotliner Cute can be spotted at CzipLee in its very own special display:
Yes, its another amazing invention by the Japanese… what can we say – They really love their CUTE stuffs! =)
The idea for this unique shaped plastic eraser is that 28 corners are better than 8.
Kokuyo Co. Ltd., the maker of the Kadokeshi Plastic Eraser, says that when people use a standard rectangular eraser, they always use one of the corners. This is because the pointy-nature of a corner provides them with the accuracy needed to remove errant characters and marks. But when all eight corners of a rectangular erases have been rounded down, the eraser becomes less effective.
Thus this new design gives the user plenty of corners. When one of the cubes on this eraser becomes completely rounded off, you just cut it off, giving you access to new corners. (source: SNP)
Introduced in 2003, the eraser is part of the Museum of Modern Art’s permanent collection, and was featured in a 2004 exhibition, “Humble Masterpieces”. The eraser was designed by Hideo Kanbara as an entry in a competition held by Kokuyo. (source:penciltalk)
So 5 years on, a new and colourful range of ‘Keshi-s’ (as they are fondly known to us here in CzipLee) has arrived in store.
Packed in sweet/lolly packs and displayed in a plastic sweet container, they come in 10 different colours and they are now available in CzipLee Bangsar.

We’re welcoming a host of brands into the CzipLee.com family and we kick things off with our favourite glue dotliners from Kokuyo. As most of our customers do tend to get the dotliners mixed up with the correction tapes because of the size, shape and design; we hope this video will help you differentiate them!
These tape-glue dotliners are pretty revolutionary and dumb-proof. We use them for everything: envelopes, photos (did we mention that they are acid-free, as well?), papers, cardboard, scrapbooking, etc. Definitely reduce mess, avoid sticky-ness, no spills and very very easy to use! We have long since crossover to the world of these dotliners from that of glue sticks!
P.S. Stay tune for more from the rest of the brands, we’re still piecing them together! =)
This very special Kokuyo Dotliner -Christmas Tree get things going. With big savings, this RM 5-10-20 promo is definitely an ideal X’mas stockings gift idea!
