Product Information

Full details

The 5 Star Eco Highlighter is designed for eco-conscious students and office professionals who need reliable, vibrant marking tools that align with sustainable values. Its primary benefit is the innovative barrel construction made from recycled paper, which helps maintain ink freshness while reducing plastic waste. A key caveat for potential users is that the paper-based barrel design requires careful handling to prevent excessive moisture exposure or crushing, as it is not as rigid as traditional plastic highlighters.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

No assembly is required for the 5 Star Eco Highlighter; simply remove the cap to begin use. To ensure the longest lifespan, always replace the cap securely after each use to prevent the ink from drying out. Store these highlighters horizontally in a cool, dry place. Avoid keeping them in high-humidity areas or near liquids, as the recycled paper barrel is susceptible to moisture damage. They are compatible with most standard office paper and notebook stocks, though thin, low-quality paper may experience slight bleed-through.
