Noodler's ink is archival quality and 100% made in the USA from the ink to the bottle it comes in.

At the request of many customers Noodler's Ink set about to make available a bulletproof green freeze resisting ink - Polar Green - at the same cost as the other extremely durable Polar Inks offered by Noodler's. It is modeled upon the darker/forest shades of green suggested by those same customers in late 2009. It has been tested in the recent arctic blasts to hit New England and found to be equal in performance to our other Polar Inks in hindering the problems cold weather can cause with pens such as ball points and roller balls - with a pen that is set for classic flow (when one can see light pass through the nib tines) a Polar Ink can write, well below freezing...and the glass bottle can be encased in ice (as shown in some of our demonstrations) without the glass being destroyed through expansion of the liquid! This has been a useful feature for many people in the northern part of the USA when the ink sits out in a mail box for a long period of time waiting for their return home from work

"Freeze Resistant Inks" include Polar Blue and Polar Black, which will resist forming a solid mass of ice within a glass ink bottle during most cold weather conditions (though they will form some harmless ice "slush" when very cold). The first "Polar" ink was "freeze proof" to -114 F, but the reformulated Polar inks made from 2006 and later have a faster dry time, better flow rate, and are basic "freeze resisting" inks to avoid expansion barrel cracks in pens and broken bottles in mail boxes on cold days. They is no guarantee "never to freeze regardless of the temperature" but, they are made to resist the damaging expansion that water based products can be subject to when exposed to freezing temperatures and harsh winter weather.

After receiving feedback from customers, Polar Brown has been made a more conventional color - though still a completely bulletproof, freeze resisting, lubricated ink - it is now a striking dark brown ink. It remains extremely durable, but now has the more conservative color most of our customers requested that it become. The older version bi-gravity Polar Brown with the "orange halo flames" is being phased out (both due to customer feedback as well as a pending material shortage). Apologies in advance for any inconvenience this might cause - but we feel strongly the new color will more closely serve the desires and wants of our customers and will be a longer term offering in terms of more consistent availability and color.
