Sharpie permanent markers

Sharpie is a globally recognized brand synonymous with permanent markers. Originally launched in 1964 as the first pen-style permanent marker, it revolutionized the way people label and create. The brand's history is rooted in the Sanford Ink Company, which was a pioneer in the writing instrument industry in the United States.

Over the decades, Sharpie has expanded its product line to include highlighters, pens, and specialized artistic markers. While the brand maintains a strong manufacturing presence in the United States, production has diversified to include facilities in Mexico and China to meet global demand. This blend of domestic and international manufacturing ensures wide availability across various markets.

Today, Sharpie is a flagship brand under the Newell Brands umbrella. Newell Brands is a multi-national consumer goods corporation headquartered in the United States, managing a diverse portfolio of well-known names. The brand continues to lead the market through innovation in ink technology and ergonomic design, maintaining its status as an essential tool for both professional and creative applications.
