COLLECTION

Custom Highlighters

Sense2 supplies custom highlighters with your logo — matte pastel highlighters, dual-function pen highlighters, frosted barrel and wax highlighters, and five-colour sets — with minimums from 100 on most lines and a digital proof before anything is printed. Pad print keeps a one- or two-colour logo crisp on a slim barrel, screen print wraps a longer mark around it, and full-colour digital print handles artwork on flatter barrels and the clear trio case. Standard production runs ten to fifteen business days after proof approval.

How to choose

Buy highlighters for frequency, not novelty: the logo is seen every time the cap comes off, so start with where the highlighter will live. A single matte pastel or frosted barrel is the lowest cost per unit and rides in a pencil case for a term. A dual-function pen and highlighter earns a place beside the agenda in meeting rooms. Wax highlighters mark like a crayon, with no ink to dry out. Five-colour sets and the clear-case trio read as a gift for students and study centres. Pad print keeps a one- or two-colour logo crisp; full-colour print is for flatter barrels and cases. Simplify the artwork, because a highlighter barrel is narrow.

What is the minimum order for custom highlighters?

Minimums start at 100 units in this range; each product states its own minimum order. Unit price depends on quantity, so ask for a stepped quote across the quantities you are weighing up.

How long does production take for custom highlighters?

Between 2–7 weeks from artwork approval, depending on the product — each product page states its own production window. Freight time depends on your destination and is quoted with the order.

Samples are charged at cost plus freight up front, and we credit the sample cost back on orders of 100+ units (and for returning customers) — so the sample effectively costs nothing once you order. Branded pre-production samples are also available with a setup fee that's credited back on the full order.

Can I order custom highlighters in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane or elsewhere in Australia?

Yes — Sense2 supplies custom highlighters Australia-wide, including Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra, Gold Coast and Hobart, with dispatch from our production centres and freight quoted for your destination on each order.

How much do custom highlighters cost with a logo?

Every product in Highlighters is priced by quantity — the unit price steps down as the order grows, and the exact figure for your quantity is on each product page. Minimum order 100 units. A one-off setup charge per artwork is quoted up front. Prices are AUD ex-GST and covered by our Best Price Guarantee.

Which print method suits a logo on a highlighter?

Pad print is the usual choice: it puts a crisp one- or two-colour logo on a narrow barrel or clip and is the most economical at volume. Screen print wraps a longer mark around the barrel. Full-colour digital print is kept for flatter barrels and the clear case on the trio, where artwork has room.

Is there a recycled highlighter in the range?

Yes. The range includes the STAEDTLER Textsurfer Classic Recycled Highlighter, a brand-name recycled option, alongside the standard barrels and sets. Ask for it when you enquire and your logo is proofed on it the same way as any other line before production.

How long do custom highlighters take to produce?

Standard production runs ten to fifteen business days after proof approval. Working to an orientation week, open day or conference date? Say so when you enquire and we will confirm the timing before you order.

Can I see a proof before the highlighters are printed?

Yes, on every order. Before production starts you receive a digital proof with the logo at actual size on the barrel or case you have picked, the print position marked and the colours called out. Nothing is printed until you approve it.

Uncapped whenever the page matters

Cost per impression on a highlighter comes in lower than almost anything on a desk. It costs less than a coffee, lives in a pencil case or beside the keyboard, and is picked up whenever something on the page needs finding again. Each uncapping puts the logo in the hand, beside text somebody means to re-read. Sense2 supplies custom highlighters as one order: pastel and frosted barrels for welcome bags, a dual-function pen and highlighter for meeting rooms, wax highlighters with no ink to dry out, and five-colour sets for students colour-coding a term of notes. A tight range, built around how highlighters actually get used. Send artwork and quantity; barrel, print position and colour are settled on a digital proof before printing.

When people reach for these

  • Orientation weeks and open days

    A pastel highlighter in the welcome bag is in the pencil case by the first lecture and in the hand through every revision session that follows.

  • Onboarding kits and meeting rooms

    A dual-function pen and highlighter sits beside the agenda, marks up the document, and puts the logo on the table at every meeting.

  • Libraries, tutoring and study centres

    Five-colour sets handed over the counter colour-code a term of notes, and the logo sits beside every line that gets read again.
