High quality writing tools with custom printing
We offer three customizable ballpoint pen models: Simply, Silversurfer and Touchscreen. Each of the pens is mainly made of plastic, measures about 14 cm and works with a snap mechanism to store the tip. Modern, the rubberized tip of the touchscreen ballpoint pen allows you to use the pen on all touch screens. The three versions offer an ergonomic shape for easy handling when writing. The Simply and Touchscreen ballpoint pens come with an X-20 blue refill, while the Silversurfer comes with a large blue ink cartridge.
Thanks to a practical clip, each ballpoint pen can be fixed on a shirt or jacket pocket.
Pens are available in the following colours:
Simply: white/blue, white/red and white/black
Silversurfer: silver/blue, silver/red and silver/black
Touch screen: blue, red and anthracite
Here’s how pens are printed
We use white, black and special Pantone colors for printing. We print with only one color at a time. If you choose special colors, we recommend strong and bright shades. It is essential that the colour selection for printing is clearly defined and that the colorimetry is 100%, for example «Pantone 295 C». Therefore, semi-colorimetry and color shades are not suitable for printing on custom pens. Printing transparent surfaces is not available. With the CMYK four-colour process, you are free to choose your graphics. From photo to logo, slogan, we can print almost everything on your Silversurfer ballpoint pen.
When you create the print file, make sure that the data is in PDF format. To achieve the best possible print result, the lines must be at least 0.2 mm thick and the text must be converted into a vector path. Make sure that the font height is at least 1 mm. We advise you to avoid characters with a notch, because they often do not appear correctly on printed ballpoint pens.
