Custom & Promotional Branded Gel Pens

Print Your Perfect Promotion with Personalized Gel Pens

If you’ve ever used a gel pen, you know it’s a unique experience. It’s not like writing with a pencil, marker, or ballpoint pen. It’s manufactured in a different way, and therefore, delivers an unusual and smooth effect.

What is a gel pen?

Gel pens use a special kind of ink, which suspends powder-based color in a water-based gel solution. This makes the ink thicker and cloudy and helps it show up better on glossy surfaces and stay put on paper. They are ideal for different types of artistic writing and drawing applications, as well as smooth everyday writing.

Are gel pens good? Why?

Gel pens can be an ideal writing instrument for certain applications. For example, if you’d like to add an artistic flair to a letter, journal, or notebook, gel plans can help you successfully achieve your vision. Gel pens also provide singularly smooth writing, which anyone can benefit from. Finally, gel ink tends to be clear, vivid, and long lasting on paper. That means that gel pen writing is easy to read, and difficult to erase or alter after the fact, making gel pens perfect for signing official documents.

Frequently Asked Questions About Custom Gel Pens

What are gel pens made of?

Gel pens typically have a plastic barrel and contain pigments that are copper phthalocyanine and iron oxides and gel that is a combination of water and biopolymers like xanthan gum.

Do gel pens smear?

Like all inks, gel pens can smear. However, gel pens do not usually smear as much as typical ballpoint pens. Gel pens used to be prone to smearing because it took longer for the ink to dry, allowing more time for accidents, and disadvantaging left-handed writers. Modern gel pens tend to dry much faster.

How to get ink flowing in a gel pen?

If you find that your gel pen is dry, you can get the ink flowing by putting half the refill into hot tap water for several minutes.
