The first company pens were sold in shopping malls under the brand [[Arumia]], and were presented in various versions (''Real'', ''Liga'', ''Supra'' e ''Spezial''). The company obtained a good success selling over 20,000 units in the first year. In [[1927]] the company introduced some new models, particularly noteworthy was the [[Arumia|Arumia Original]], a [[button filler]], also made in [[celluloid]], very similar to the [[Duofold]], which was guaranteed for 5 years. In the same year was also created a new line of [[safety]] fountain pens, the [[Colleg]] in the economy segment addressed to students that also was a great success, multiplying by six times the production since the beginning of the [[1926]].

In [[1928]] were resolved disputes with [[Parker]] for the use of [[button filler]], and were introduced four new celluloid models in for the [[Arumia|Arumia Original]] ''"U"'' series, where had been used a letter ''"U"'' in the absence of a better brand, probably to indicate the initial for ''unbreakable''. Was also introduced a new line, the [[Meisterklasse|Arumia Meisterklasse]], more expensive. New models met with great success and at the end of the year the plants were operating at full capacity, and barely able to meet the demands.

In [[1929]] ''KWG'' was looking for a trademark that would replace the unattractive [[Arumia]], and started contacts with Max Sauter, the [[Kaweco]] liquidator. After months of negotiations in September 31, 1929, ''KWG'' bought the brand and changed its name to ''Kaweco Badische Füllhalterfabrik, Woringen & Grube''.
