Sustainable Branded Highlighters
Branded highlighters and markers with your logo
Branded highlighters are a low-cost, high-use giveaway for conferences, campus campaigns, welcome packs and office stationery, the kind of item that stays on a desk and keeps your logo in view. Our range covers single highlighters, multi-colour highlighters and text markers, so you can match the format to the budget and the audience.
What you can choose from
The selection runs from simple single highlighters to multi-colour designs that put several shades in one barrel, including 5-colour, 4-colour and triangular 3-colour highlighters and the TrioMarker pen. There are novelty shapes (flower, star and figure highlighters) for student and event giveaways, dry highlighter pencils that mark without a plastic ink barrel, and 2-in-1 designs that pair a ballpoint with a highlighter.
Recycled and lower-impact options
Where you want a greener brief, we carry specific lower-impact lines rather than a blanket eco label. These include a recycled text marker, an RPET highlighter, a text marker made from wheat straw, and the Bloom highlighter made from recycled milk cartons. The dry highlighter pencils avoid the plastic barrel and felt tip of a standard highlighter altogether. We describe each by its real material so you can brief your own sustainability claims accurately.
Branding and decoration
Most highlighters are decorated by pad print, with digital and screen printing available on selected designs for fuller-colour or wrap-around logos. The print area and number of colours vary by shape, so the artwork options are shown on each product. Minimum order quantities and lead times are confirmed when you request a quote.
Why buy from Social Supermarket
We are a certified B Corp, and we curate this range for recycled and renewable materials with supplier credentials we have checked, rather than listing every promotional highlighter on the market. Browse the full Pens & Writing hub, or see related branded ballpoint pens and branded pencils.
Frequently asked questions
What are recycled highlighters made from?+
It depends on the design. In our range, the lower-impact options include a highlighter made from recycled milk cartons (the Bloom highlighter), an RPET highlighter, a recycled text marker, and a text marker made from wheat straw. We describe each product by its actual material rather than using a blanket eco label, so you can check exactly what it is made from.
Can highlighters be printed with our logo?+
Yes. Every highlighter and marker in this range can be branded with your logo or message. Most are decorated by pad print, with digital and screen printing available on selected designs for fuller-colour or wrap-around branding. The print area and number of colours vary by the shape and size of the highlighter.
What is the difference between a highlighter and a text marker?+
They are essentially the same thing. Highlighter is the more common UK term and text marker is the wording many promotional suppliers use, both meaning a wide chisel-tip pen with fluorescent or pastel ink for marking over printed text. Our range includes both single highlighters and multi-colour text markers.
Do you sell multi-colour highlighters?+
Yes. As well as single-colour highlighters, the range includes multi-colour designs that hold several shades in one barrel, such as 5-colour and 4-colour highlighters, a triangular 3-colour highlighter and the TrioMarker pen. These give recipients a full set of colours in one branded item.
What is a highlighter pencil?+
A highlighter pencil is a dry, wax-based pencil in highlighter colours that marks text without liquid ink or a plastic ink barrel. It will not bleed through thin paper and does not dry out, which makes it a lower-waste alternative to a standard felt-tip highlighter. We stock highlighter pencils both singly and in boxed sets.
Are highlighters a good promotional giveaway?+
Highlighters are a popular, low-cost promotional item because they are practical, kept on a desk and used repeatedly, which keeps your logo in view. They work well for conferences, exhibitions, campus and student campaigns, welcome packs and everyday office stationery.
What is the minimum order and lead time?+
Minimum order quantities and lead times vary by product and decoration method, so they are confirmed when you request a quote. Highlighters are typically ordered in bulk for events and giveaways, and the available print options are shown on each product page.
