Uni-Ball
Uni-Ball gel pens are smooth, reliable and great value in multi-packs. The Signo series is especially popular for school and office notes: the ink is quick-drying and comfortable to write with for long sessions.
Uni-Ball Signo
The Signo is Uni-Ball's flagship gel pen and one of the most popular pens in Australia for school and office use. The gel ink flows smoothly without skipping, dries quickly enough to avoid smudging under most conditions, and resists water and UV fading better than standard ballpoint ink.
The Signo 207 is a retractable version widely used in offices. It is available in 0.5mm and 0.7mm tip sizes. The 0.7mm is the best all-round choice for everyday writing. The 0.5mm suits people who prefer a finer line or who write in smaller notebooks.
Multi-Packs and Value
Uni-Ball Signo pens are sold in 10-packs and 12-packs in black and blue, which brings the per-pen cost down considerably compared to buying individually. For a student or office worker who uses a gel pen daily, the multi-pack is the practical buy. The pens write consistently across the whole pack, and spares mean you won't be caught short mid-essay or mid-meeting.
Uni-Ball Eye
The Uni-Ball Eye uses a different ink system to the Signo: liquid ink rather than gel. The result is an even smoother ink flow that suits people who prefer a lightweight feel with minimal pressure. The Eye Micro (0.5mm) is popular for fine writing and detailed note-taking. The ink in the Eye range is also notably waterproof and tamper-resistant, making it a common choice for legal documents and signatures.
