Testimonials

Save The Environment
“I really love my AusPen markers and I recommend them to anyone who regularly uses a whiteboard. They have brilliant colors, are easy to erase, very easy to refill, have a nice feel in your hand and are kept in such a neat package that it is convenient to bring them to my classes each day.  I never throw them into the garbage.”
Holly Kresch– Diablo Valley College, California

Save Money
“We have been testing this product with our “high use” teachers. We have found them to be very economical and good quality and now intend to use them for all our staff. Not only does the financial savings impress us, but also the environmental benefit is a major plus.”
Trish Mills – Purchasing Officer, St Paul’s School

I Love The Products
“I have been a long-time environmentalist, but somehow it never occurred to me to question the impact of the white board markers I use (and toss out) all year long. I saw AusPens mentioned in an environmental magazine and ordered my AusPen Kit within a week. I loved them! Next year, AusPens will be the ONLY markers I use.

They are low-odor and erase like a dream. They have vibrant colors. The markers actively teach children about reusing resources. My third grade students love to gather around and watch as I refill the markers. I even have a student who offers to refill them any time the color seems to be running out. In addition to being environmentally friendly, they are also budget-conscious! What more could you want in a marker?”
Catherine McCaffery, Caldwell Schools

How to Refill

January 28, 2008

Auspen Refill1. Unscrew the neck of the barrel using the specially designed AusPen tool supplied inside the AusPen carrycase.

2. Auspen Markers are individually wax sealed to ensure they are airlocked. This may result in initial tightness of the neck. Subsequent openings are easier.

3. Remove only the head and nib of pen, insert 10 to 12 drops only of AusPen ink into the felt inside the barrel.

4. Replace neck of the barrel firmly.

Note: It is important to refill marker before it completely dries out.

Always take care when handling ink, the use of a tissue or rag is recommended.
