Did You Know?

Disposable whiteboard markers are one of the top sources of toxic waste for local schools and offices. Disposable whiteboard markers use xylene, a very harmful chemical, significantly increasing the toxicity of classrooms and all workspaces. Disposable whiteboard markers clog our local landfills with toxic chemicals and millions of PVC cylinders that will never biodegrade. North American teachers will throw out over 500 million whiteboard markers into their local landfills.

Very Low Odor and Non-Toxic “It made me happy to be able to refill a marker, rather than throwing it in the garbage. I also appreciate that I’m not lightheaded from chemical fumes.
Thanks for the great product.”

How to Refill

1. 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.
