The history of Octopus Fluids GmbH & Co. KG as a whole, we begin our account long before the actual founding of the company. The tradition of ink production in Saxony goes back as far as 1826. The finest writing inks were already produced and sold in Dresden in the 19th century under the brand name "Aug. Leonhardi". From 1945, this company was continued as VEB Bürochemie Dresden (with the brand name "Barock"). After reunification, the company was renamed Barock Bürobedarf GmbH, which continued to sell inks under the name "Barock". Formerly the only ink manufacturer in the GDR, Barock successfully researched, developed and produced inks in Dresden for many years. This company would later play a decisive role in the foundation of our own company Octopus Fluids.
