Ballpoint Pens
Ballpoint pens are a must-have for work, school, and home. Whether you need blue, black, or red ballpoint pens, a refillable ballpoint pen, or a multipack for the office, you'll find a great selection at Officeworks. Choose from trusted brands like BIC, PaperMate, and Pilot for easy, hassle-free writing.
Rollerball Pens Vs. Ballpoint Pens
Rollerball pens use water-based ink, giving a smoother writing feel. Ballpoint pens use oil-based ink, which is thicker, dries faster, and is better for everyday use. While rollerball pens are smoother, ballpoint pens are more durable.
Are Ballpoint Pens waterproof?
Most ballpoint pens are not waterproof, but the ink is typically water-resistant once it’s dry. For maximum water resistance, look for pens specifically marketed as waterproof or fade-resistant.
Can Ballpoint Pens be recycled?
Ballpoint pens can be recycled, but it depends on the materials used in their construction. Look for pens made from recyclable plastic or metal. For your old pens, simply drop them into your local Officeworks store at a Bring It Back station to recycle them responsibly.
