The Uni-ball ZENTO Basic Ballpoint Pen 0.5 is where thoughtful design meets writing comfort. Available in three essential ink colours—black, red, and blue—this pen is designed for practical use while offering a refined, minimalist aesthetic that seamlessly fits into any environment, from professional to personal.
At the core of this pen is the newly developed ZENTO ink, a water-based formulation that delivers a uniquely smooth and soft writing experience. Thanks to the innovative POA surfactant (polyoxyalkylene)—a cushioning component between the ball tip and paper—writing friction is reduced by approximately 40% compared to conventional Uni-ball pens. This allows for less hand fatigue and a more fluid feel with every stroke.
ZENTO ink is also engineered with “attraction particles” that keep lines crisp and prevent bleeding or show-through, making it ideal for journaling, note-taking, and everyday writing on various paper types. Whether you're writing down thoughts, organizing tasks, or signing documents, the pen offers consistent clarity and comfort.
The pen’s streamlined, minimalist body subtly enhances the distinct ink color while maintaining a clean, elegant look—perfect for those who appreciate understated design and functionality.
With the Uni-ball ZENTO, writing becomes more than a task—it becomes a moment of calm reflection and quiet satisfaction.
