Posca Markers

Posca, the iconic brand of water-based paint markers, was launched in 1983 by the Mitsubishi Pencil Company of Japan. Since its inception, the brand has become a staple for artists, street art enthusiasts, and hobbyists worldwide due to its unique pigment ink that is vibrant, opaque, and permanent on porous surfaces. While the brand is celebrated globally, its production remains centered in Japan, ensuring high standards of quality and consistency.

Owned and operated by the Mitsubishi Pencil Company (unrelated to the automotive or heavy industry groups), Posca has maintained its position as a leader in the stationery market. The brand's success is attributed to its innovative valve-action system and wide variety of nib sizes. The ultimate parent company continues to be headquartered in Tokyo, managing a vast portfolio of writing instruments that includes the Uni-ball line alongside Posca.
