UV pens

UV pens are tools that use special ink that is only visible under exposure to ultraviolet light. IDGAMAX manufactures them as part of our other UV products line for personalization and protection. They are perfect for asset tracking, branding, creative applications, and art at IDGAMAX. 

Our pen models, Pen A and Pen Z, are extraordinary as they use photoluminescent ink that is unseen under natural light in a discreet way to secure and creative marking.

Their phosphor compounds absorb and release UV light as visible fluorescence, activated by UV light to reveal hidden marks or texts. The UV-reactive formulas bind permanently to paper, cardboard, plastic, metal, and textile. 

The technology ensures marks are not visible for tampering. We use our UV printing machines for bulk orders for uniform results. The system also produces our Other UV products, like our UV name badges and UV pins.

UV Pens common uses and applications 

These pens are reliable in the security industry and law enforcement to mark valuables with serial numbers, identify stolen goods, and hide notations on sensitive documents. Retailers use them to tag stock and avoid theft, while creative individuals and educators use them for learning games and in galleries and escape rooms. 

Brands customize giveaways like pens paired with lanyards with UV-reactive logos for their promotions, making them useful for commercial and creative spaces.

Comparing different types of UV pens

Your application and needs determine your pen selection. UV marker pens have fine tips for accurate writing for document tagging, security coding, and marking small items. Their ink is weather-resistant, permanent, and compatible with metal and plastic. However, they are not ideal for large-area coverage due to their tip size.

UV paint pens go well with art projects because their thick ink is clear on glass, acrylic, and ceramics, but they dry slowly. UV light pens offer instant ink verification for fast checks in clubs, inspections, and event entries. They are portable, battery-operated, and efficient, though bulkier and more expensive. All these types are available at the IDGAMAX UV-pens section.

UV light pens

Professionals in need of instant verification use UV light pens as they include an integrated UV LED for quick detection of invisible markings. We recommend Pen A and Pen Z for security personnel and event organizers making quick verifications. Teachers also use these pens to conduct interactive activities.

UV paint pens

UV paint pens are stocked in different colors such as blue, black, yellow, purple and pink to create artistic work forms such as murals, gallery installations, and themed parties like Halloween. Their multiple tip sizes and fast-drying formulations make them popular for these uses. For best results, users should clean surfaces with isopropyl alcohol, apply a primer if needed, build layers gradually, and cure for 24 hours.

UV marker pens

UV marker pens are used to tag electronics, add invisible signatures, and mark evidence for forensic experts. They leave no residue and have tamper-resistant ink suitable for paper, cardboard, plastics, and metal. Their visibility varies on glass and textile.

Benefits and safety of UV pens

UV-pens professionally hide information, personalize branding, and produce interactive designs. We supply pens and other UV products like UV name badges and UV pins for your promotion collection. Use the pens in ventilated areas, wear gloves when handling large quantities, and avoid direct exposure to the eyes.

Health and safety considerations

A key tip is to avoid skin contact with the ink and eye contact with the UV lights. Children should not have access to them, and they should not be ingested or near food items. In case this happens, rinse immediately with water.

We pair them with our badge-making kits, UV printing machines, and other UV products. Our UV pens are in multiple colors for suitable branding and personal project needs.
