Derofe Pens

Most engraved Derofe pens are metal twist action ballpoints with a tungsten carbide ball and Swiss ink that writes in black for a long stretch. Gloss black lacquer is the main finish, dressed with chrome or silver coloured trims, and some barrels add fine stripes or pattern accents to break up the shine. The silver and silver striped versions flip that look with bright metal barrels and chrome accents, while the matte black ballpoint keeps things low-key with a flat metal body. The rollerball sits alongside them in gloss black, running a German ceramic refill for a smoother, more fluid line. A gift box comes with many styles, and some have a two year warranty.

After an annual review with their financial planner, a retired couple heads home with a boxed metal pen. They open it at the kitchen table and use it to sign the paperwork that follows, and it quickly becomes the pen that lives by the phone for jotting notes. What they get is a smooth black line and a small reminder of a good meeting. More gift ideas sit in our pens category.

All styles can be branded, and most custom Derofe pens can be printed with a full colour digital print, so detailed artwork and brand colours come through sharp on the black lacquer. On the silver barrels, engraving comes out tone on tone.

Frequently Asked

What ink do these pens use?

Do engraved Derofe pens make a good client gift?

Do Derofe pens come with a warranty?
Yes, several styles come with a two year warranty, including the rollerball, the matte black ballpoint and a gloss black ballpoint. The rest share the same tungsten carbide tip and metal body as the warranty styles.
