The right pen comes down to how the ink flows and how the nib feels. Ballpoints are the workhorse, gel and rollerball pens write smoother and show colour better, and a fountain pen turns signing into something nicer. Jump straight to ballpoint, gel or rollerball pens below, or read on for a quick guide to picking by type.

Ballpoint pens use a thick oil-based ink that dries quickly and lasts a long time, ideal for everyday writing. Gel pens use a wetter, smoother ink that glides with less pressure and shows brighter colour, but it uses up a little faster.
The number on a pen, such as 0.5, 0.7 or 1.0mm, is the tip width. A finer tip keeps small handwriting tidy, while a broader tip writes a bolder line more quickly. Most people find 0.7mm a comfortable all-rounder.
Yes. Many ballpoint, gel and rollerball pens take a replacement refill, so you keep the barrel and just drop in fresh ink. Check the refill matches your pen model, since brands use different fittings.
Quick-drying ballpoint and certain gel inks smudge less for left-handers, who tend to drag their hand over fresh writing. A finer tip and a fast-dry ink help most.
We do. Erasable pens use heat-sensitive ink you can rub out and rewrite, and 4-colour pens put black, blue, red and green in one barrel for colour-coding on the go.

Which pen suits how you write

Ballpoint pens use a thick oil-based ink that dries fast and lasts a long time, which is why they are the everyday choice for forms, notes and signing. Gel and rollerball pens use a wetter ink that glides across the page with less pressure and shows bright colour, so they suit longer writing and anyone who likes a smooth line.

Fountain pens draw liquid ink from a cartridge or converter for a classic feel, and they reward a bit of care. Whatever the type, look at the tip size too: a fine tip keeps small handwriting neat, while a medium or broad tip lays down a bolder, faster line.

Pick a pen by its ink

Most of the choice in pens is the ink inside. A ballpoint uses thick oil-based ink that suits everyday writing and lasts for ages, which is why our ballpoint pens range is the busiest. A gel pen or rollerball uses a wetter ink that glides and shows colour better, and a fountain pen draws liquid ink for a classic line.

Tip size and feel

Look at the tip width as well as the ink. A fine 0.5mm tip keeps small handwriting neat, a 0.7mm is the comfortable middle, and a 1.0mm broad tip lays down a bolder, faster line. Heavier writers often prefer a smoother gel or rollerball, while a ballpoint copes better with carbon-copy forms.

Refills beat replacing

When a good pen runs dry, a refill keeps the barrel you like and costs less than a new pen. Check the refill matches your model, since brands use their own fittings.

The brands we carry

We stock the names New Zealand offices reach for, Bic, Pilot, Uni-ball, Stabilo, Artline, Pentel, Lamy and Schneider, across budget multi-packs and nicer gift pens. For bold colour and marking rather than writing, our markers range sits right alongside, and pencils live in pencils and drawing. Order online for free delivery on orders over $30.
