The highlighter pen is a staple in any office or warehouse. Its fluorescent ink is used to draw attention to important information on documents, making it an essential tool for anyone who needs to quickly scan a page of text. But how did this ubiquitous office supply come to be?
The highlighter pen was invented in 1963 by a Japanese company called Tombow Pencil Co. The original product was branded as the “Tombow Mono” and was made with a water-based ink that was safe for use on documents. The pen quickly gained popularity in Japan, and within a few years, it was being sold internationally.
Today, the highlighter pen is used by people of all ages and professions, and its fluorescent ink can be found in a wide variety of colours. Thanks to its usefulness and versatility, the highlighter pen is sure to remain a staple in offices and homes for years to come.
Our eye-catching Full Colour Printed Flower Highlighter Sets offer an excellent branding opportunity on a highly practical product.
In preparation for Freshers, the Advice & Representation Centre of The Union of Brunel Students chose these excellent flower-shaped highlighters to communicate the valuable resources offered by the department.
The plastic flower contains 5 vibrant highlighter pens in one: blue, pink, orange, yellow and green. The shape also provides a large circular area for branding on both sides.
