In the world of stamps, one name has stood out as a beacon of quality and innovation for decades: Xstamper® by Shachihata. Born as the very first pre-inked stamp ever developed, a technology that would define a new era in the stamping world. Taking what they learned for the Xstamper, their ink chemists continued to develop inks for other uses.
In 1964, Shachihata introduced the Artline brand of markers in Japan. From a humble beginning of 3 markers, the Artline brand has grown to more than 3 million units sold annually in over 95 countries and regions.
