Pens

Pens are ubiquitous writing instruments available in a wide array of types, styles, and ink formulations to suit all preferences and needs. Some of the popular pen types are ballpoint pens, which feature a small rotating ball which dispenses ink as it moves along the writing surface. Rollerball pens also feature a ball, but the ink is water based and offers much quicker ink output. Gel pens use thicker gel-based ink which provide vivid lines. Fountain pens offer a classic writing experience, utilising a nib and ink reservoir to create elegant and fluid lines.

When selecting pens, there are various considerations users should make to ensure the pens selected meet their needs. Ink type is a crucial consideration which includes water-based, oil-based, or gel-based formulations which differ in vividness and drying times. Tip size and line width is an important consideration for determining the how thick the ink lines will be. Refillable pens offer sustainability and cost-effectiveness, allowing users to replace ink cartridges rather than purchase new pens.
