Claim:
A wood substitute material for wood-encased pencils, including the following ingredients: 15 -30% by weight of at least one polymeric binder; 50 -80% by weight of at least one organic filler; 0 -20% by weight of at least one inorganic filler; 0.5 -5% by weight of at least one adhesion promoter; 1 -30% by weight of at least one wax; 0 -10% by weight of at least one colour pigment; and 0 -10% by weight of at least one additive, Wherein the at least one adhesion promoter forms a chemical bond between the at least one polymeric binder and the at least one organic filler, wherein a ratio of the at least one adhesion promoter to the at least one wax in a range from 1:2.5 to 1:6, in % by weight, being formed, and a sum of organic and inorganic filler being not more than 80% by weight, and wherein the at least one organic filler is formed of filler particles having a maximum particle size of 100 μm.
