The Artline EK-660 and EK-660N flat body highlighters are premium writing instruments manufactured by Artline (Shachihata Japan). Featuring a distinct non-roll flat barrel, generous ink capacity, consistent flow down to the last drop, and an expansive color selection, these highlighters serve as an essential tool for corporate offices, production facilities, and industrial plants requiring organized document classification and efficient information processing.
Key Features of Artline EK-660 & EK-660N Highlighters
Consistent Ink Delivery Down to the Last Drop
Powered by Shachihata's advanced water-based ink technology, the Artline EK-660 series delivers a steady and uniform ink feed from first use until the reservoir is completely depleted. The high-contrast ink dries rapidly on standard paper surfaces, resisting clumping and preventing print-smudging on critical business documents.
Ergonomic Flat Body & Versatile Chisel Tip
- Anti-Roll Flat Barrel: The flat body design offers an ergonomic grip, preventing the highlighter from rolling off desks or workstations.
- Chisel Tip (1.0 mm to 4.0 mm): The angled nib enables variable line widths ranging from 1.0 mm to 4.0 mm. Users can alternate between fine underlines and broad highlighting to emphasize key information effectively.
Dual Color Palette: Fluorescent & Soft Pastel Options
To accommodate varying enterprise workflow needs, the series is divided into two distinct color ranges:
- EK-660 Series (Fluorescent Palette): Yellow, Orange, Pink, Green, Blue, Red, and Purple. Provides high visibility for urgent notifications and primary indexing.
- EK-660N Series (Pastel Palette): Pastel Yellow, Pastel Orange, Pastel Pink, Pastel Blue, Pastel Green, and Pastel Grey. Delivers soft, glare-free tones suitable for extensive reading and aesthetic documentation without eye fatigue.
Environmental & Workplace Safety Compliance
Artline EK-660 highlighters comply with European RoHS safety directives (free from harmful heavy metals) and carry Xylene Free certification. This guarantees a safe working environment for office personnel and factory workers using the product regularly in enclosed spaces.
B2B Applications for Corporate Environments
- Administration & Executive Offices: Reviewing financial reports, highlighting contract clauses, and organizing administrative archives.
- Quality Control & Plant Operations: Auditing material inventory logs, marking process parameters, and flagging job order tickets.
- Training & Corporate Seminars: Building workflow mind maps, marking orientation manuals, and emphasizing key compliance instructions.
