Pens for BDS carcass tags?????

[palmer_mike]

Anyone recommend a fine pointed marker pen that won’t smudge when writing on BDS tags?

Currently using a ‘fine point’ sharpie but I’d like something finer. Less like a felt tip……

Bloody nightmare when you have a pile of biros but nothing which will write on a tag

Permanent OHP pens work ok but can still smudge on the plasticky NGO tags before they fully dry

This sort of thing

I just use a cheap bic pen, stays on mine without smudging…… unless the tag material has changed?

Sharpies work well providing the tag is dry

Might be an opening for the BDS in their shop? Buy a roll of tags and get a suitable permanent marker pen (or two) thrown in for good measure. They sell ball point pens, so wouldn't be difficult?

When you do put the tags and pen in a tupperware box

I write my name, and other permanent details onto the tags before going out. Then all I have to do is enter date/time, location and species. You’d be surprised how much time this saves - and smudges, as there’s much less wet ink.

I have a stack pre filled out like this next to the chiller and ready to go. I primarily use a sharpie but I see Landig do a permanent marker so may get one and see how good it is.

Never had any issues using anything other than a straight forward ball point pen - just fill the details in on the tag before you attach it.

These are brilliant for school uniform labels - they have a tough life.

Sets also available in just black.

Just need lumipen

I use the pental ones as they are half the price. That or a sharpie ultrafine

Any marker smudges just need to keep the label dry.

If its wet a pencil works alot better

Filled in hundreds of those tags with all manner of random pens and never had a problem.
