By Type Insights
According to product type, the marker market can be divided into permanent markers and non-permanent markers. In 2024, the non-permanent markers segment generated the highest revenue. Non-permanent markers are available in various colors, facilitating the color coding of information or the creation of visually attractive presentations. Their ink is highly pigmented, ensuring that the colors are vibrant on any surface, which makes them a favored choice among teachers, presenters, and artists. Furthermore, unlike permanent markers that contain harmful chemicals and contribute to environmental pollution, non-permanent markers utilize water-based ink that is non-toxic and can be easily removed. This characteristic makes them a safer option for both children and the environment.

By Product Type Insights
Regarding product type, the market for marker pens is classified into refillable and disposable categories. In 2024, the refillable marker pens segment recorded the highest revenue. Because of their affordability, ease of use, and environmental friendliness, artists, students, and professionals are increasingly using these refillable marker pens. Unlike conventional marker pens which are disposed of after utilization, refillable markers can be replenished with ink, making them reusable. This not only saves money over time but also minimizes waste and aids in environmental protection. Refillable marker pens are offered in a variety of tip sizes, colors, and types, including both alcohol-based and water-based options, thereby ensuring versatility for various applications.

Regional Insights
In 2024, the marker pen market was dominated by the Asia Pacific region. This expansion can be linked to several factors, including the increasing demand for marker pens in educational settings, the growing interest in calligraphy and hand lettering, and the rise in e-commerce sales. Marker pens are extensively utilized in schools, colleges, and universities for a variety of applications, such as writing on whiteboards, creating charts and diagrams, and emphasizing key information.
On the other hand, e-commerce platforms have played a major role in the Asia Pacific market's expansion. The ease of online shopping and the availability of a diverse range of options at competitive prices have drawn many consumers to buy marker pens online. This trend has also created opportunities for small and local marker pen manufacturers to expand their customer base and boost their sales.



Market Competitive Landscape
The key players in the market include Sharpie, Pentel, DOMS, Mitsubishi Pencil Co. Ltd, and Faber-Castell AG, which collectively held the largest market share in 2024. As the demand for high-quality and innovative writing instruments continues to rise, manufacturers are consistently investing in research and development to maintain a competitive edge in the market. With the growth of e-commerce and online shopping, consumers are becoming increasingly price-sensitive and are always searching for the best deals. In order to remain competitive, manufacturers are therefore closely examining their pricing methods. This has resulted in the introduction of budget-friendly options, as well as premium marker pens with higher price points for those willing to invest in quality and distinctive features.

Recent Developments:
In October 2023, Shachihata introduced its latest Artline IREGUI marker, a dedicated permanent marker tailored for fishing equipment. Because of its specially designed brush-type pen nib, the Artline IREGUI marker is easy to use, especially on curved surfaces. With a selection of 9 ink colors, including 6 UV-reflection GLOW shades, the Artline IREGUI marker significantly improves the fishing success of anglers globally.
