Description
The Basix is a plastic ballpoint pen built around a white barrel with a colored plunger and a matching rubber grip section. The grip gives your fingers a textured surface to hold, which helps keep handwriting steady through longer notes and signatures.
A plunger-action mechanism extends and retracts the ballpoint tip with a click, so the pen is ready when you need it and closed when you don't. The white barrel leaves a clean field for your logo, and the colored grip and actuator add a coordinated accent.

Decoration & Imprint
2 methods
Your artwork is printed on the barrel of the pen. Screen Print lays down crisp, opaque spot-color ink for bold shapes and simple lettering, while Digital Print reproduces photographic imagery, gradients, and fine multi-color detail in a single pass. Choose Screen Print when a solid brand color must read as an exact spot match, and Digital Print when the artwork carries tonal blends or many colors.
Screen PrintPMS1 color/location included · no setup charge · Up to 6 colors
Screen printing presses ink through a fine mesh stencil, laying down each color as a separate pass. Each color lays down as its own premixed spot ink, printing solid and consistent across the run. The applied mark is flat and opaque, sitting on top of the material with crisp edges; on heavy coverage, you can feel a slight raised texture where ink builds up. The cured ink is durable and holds up to repeated handling and washing.
Digital PrintPMSno setup charge · Full color
Digital printing sends artwork straight from file to the item — no plates or per-color screens — laying all colors down in a single pass. It carries photographs, gradients, drop shadows, and dense multi-color artwork at high resolution, reading as a flat image on the surface. A specific brand color is rendered as a close full-color process simulation rather than an exact spot ink, and on colored items the substrate shifts the appearance.

From our decoration and product guides
- What does a screen-printed logo look like on a promotional product?
- Screen printing presses ink through a fine mesh stencil, one pass per color. Each color lays down as its own premixed spot ink, so the mark is flat, opaque and consistent across the run, with crisp edges that sit on top of the material. On heavy coverage you can feel a slight raised texture where the ink builds up, and the cured ink holds up to repeated handling and washing. More about Screen Print →
- Which artwork works best for screen printing?
- Bold spot-color shapes, blocks of solid color and simple lettering, where you want strong, opaque coverage that reads clearly. Screen printing holds clean edges on solid shapes and standard lettering, but very fine hairlines, smooth gradients and photographic blends lose definition because each color prints as a flat solid layer. For gradient or photographic artwork choose a full-color process method instead. More about Screen Print →
- Can a screen print match my exact Pantone color?
- Yes. Because every color is a separate, premixed spot ink, screen printing can be mixed to a specific Pantone (PMS) number. Where a product offers it, Pantone matching is an option for an additional charge per color; without it the printer uses the closest standard stock ink color. More about Screen Print →
