The highly opaque ink writes beautifully on both light and dark surfaces without bleeding through most papers, allowing every design to stand out with exceptional colour intensity.

POSCA markers are compatible with an extensive range of materials including paper, cardstock, sketchbooks, canvas, wood, MDF, glass, mirrors, ceramics, metal, plastic, stone, leather, fabric, terracotta, and many other creative surfaces. Whether you're creating fine illustrations, decorating home décor, customising shoes, painting mugs, designing signs, or adding vibrant details to craft projects, POSCA offers consistent performance and professional-quality results.

The unique paint formula allows colours to be blended while wet, layered once dry, and mixed to create beautiful artistic effects. Available in multiple tip sizes—from extra fine to extra broad and flexible brush tips—Uni POSCA markers provide precise control for technical drawing, lettering, colouring, outlining, and large-scale artwork.
