Leading trade-only supplier of promotional writing instruments, The Pen Warehouse, has launched a newly formulated printing ink with Biomaster antimicrobial technology and received certification to prove its efficacy. After months of in-house research and development, the company has gone through independent testing from an accredited leader in additive manufacture to receive certification.

The Pen Warehouse is delighted to be launching additional pens, all upgraded with biofree® antimicrobial technology to proactively disrupt the growth of bacteria on the surface of the pen and provide another line of defence. Furthermore, all biofree® writing instruments will now be offered with our newly formulated spot colour printing ink with Biomaster antimicrobial technology, free of charge as standard, providing complete antimicrobial protection across the whole product effective for its lifetime. Another industry-first for The Pen Warehouse.

“Promotional hygiene products are here to stay and very early on in the development of our latest pen range, we identified that offering an antimicrobial product without antimicrobial printing ink may reduce the hygiene integrity of the product. We are excited to have pushed the envelope further with our antimicrobial printing technology, offering distributors an all-inclusive hygiene writing instrument at no additional cost.” commented Helen Dyl, Operations Director of The Pen Warehouse.

The biofree® antimicrobial range with Biomaster printing ink technology will be expanding, and products will be selected based on customer demand.
