Marker PensWhen looking for the perfect marker pens, here at Euroffice we recommend that you think what type of writing you'll be doing and on what surfaces.
Now, if you want to write on slippery surfaces such as CD/DVDs, glass, plastic, metal or on your belongings and luggage tags, then you'll need a permanent marker so that the writing stays crisp and clear and doesn't come off.
But you'll also then need to consider the line width you'll need.
For smaller objects or for precise small writing, you may want a marker pen with a narrow line width of 0.5-1mm.
Sharpies and Pilot do a great selection of these.
If you want to write on packages or storage boxes then a marker pen with a thicker line width of around 2-5mm, 5 Star and Bic have a variety of these in an assortment of colours or just in black.
Marker pens come with either a chisel or bullet nib for a variety of writing styles and thicknesses.
We have a small range of marker pens designed to use with paper products – they have no odour and dry quickly, but are very versatile.
Non-permanent markers are also referred to as dry wipe markers; these are also available in a multitude of line widths, suitable for writing on an over head projector or a whiteboard.
