About Paint and Ink Markers
Paint markers work well even on dirty, rusty, wet, and oily surfaces. They leave textured marks you can feel with your hand.
Ink markers work best on a clean, dry surface. Marks dry faster than paint and are smooth to the touch.
Both paint and ink markers are permanent.

Metal-Detectable Ink Pens

Commonly used in food processing facilities, these pens are made of a plastic that can be detected with a metal-sensing device.
Metal- and X-Ray Detectable Any-Angle Ink Pens
Write at any angle in food-, pharmaceutical-, and cosmetics-processing plants—these pens contain metal and chemical additives that set off metal detectors and show up on X-rays if they fall into your line. Bright blue in color, they’re easy to find and retrieve. They help you comply with Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) programs to make sure contaminated food doesn’t leave your plant. They’re also FDA compliant for direct contact with food.
These pens have pressurized ink, so you can write at any angle, even upside down. They also work on wet, greasy, and powdery surfaces, as well as in extremely hot and cold environments.
