A marker pen, fineliner, marking pen, felt-tip marker, felt-tip pen, flow marker, texta (in Australia), sketch pen (in India) or koki (in South Africa), is a pen which has its own ink source and a tip made of porous, pressed fibers such as felt.
A permanent marker consists of a container (glass, aluminum or plastic) and a core of an absorbent material. This filling serves as a carrier for the ink. The upper part of the marker contains the nib that was made in earlier time of a hard felt material, and a cap to prevent the marker from drying out. Until the early 1990s, the most common solvents that were used for the ink were toluene and xylene.
These two substances are both harmful and characterized by a very strong smell. Today, the ink is usually made on the basis of alcohols (e.g. 1-Propanol, 1-butanol, diacetone alcohol and cresols). Markers may be waterproof, dry-erase, wet-erase (e.g. transparency markers), or permanent.

Derivan recognises the unique creative sensibility of markers, and we wanted to make available a quality marker at an affordable price that would enhance the artist or illustrator’s experience.
Although digital illustration using computers, tablets and scanners continue to play an increasing role in creating illustrations, they are unable to mimic the spontaneity and fluid lines that can only be created with the use of a specialised ink marker.
A significant number of Textile and Fashion, Product Concept, Industrial and Graphic Designers still rely and trust markers to create their preliminary concepts, as no technology can create the sense of freedom, immediacy and close affinity with a creative idea a marker provides. You can sketch, change colours, cross out, start again, cross hatch and shade within seconds.
Introducing ErgoPro By Derivan.
With the above considerations in mind, Derivan created ErgoPro Brush Illustration Markers.
As the name suggests these markers are perfectly balanced for ease of use. The tips are firm and allow the ink to flow at an even rate, which is important when covering large areas with colour or creating shading effects.
Dual Tipped
Each marker has a chisel and a flexible brush-like tip. The chisel tip is firm and perfect for covering large areas with colour, while the brush-like tip is best for outlines and intricate and precise details where a softer stroke is required.
The inks used in ErgoPro Markers are also smooth and even, so the colour you get at the first use continues throughout the life of the pen. They are also fade resistant, waterproof and acid free when dry.
Colours
ErgoPro Brush Illustration Markers are available in a range of 96 colours including a Colourless Blender, 9 shades of Warm Greys, 6 shades of Basic Greys and 9 shades of Cool Greys.
