A whiteboard is one of those office essentials that you just cannot do without.
Whether you are discussing strategy, planning the next wave of attach on your competition, holding a brainstorming session or simply sketching a funny face to but a smile on your colleague’s face first thing on a Monday morning, the whiteboard is that essential piece of kit.
The white board is also very forgiving as any sales targets can easily be amended with a simple drywipe of the figures!!
They say that emptying your mind of all those great ideas onto a piece of paper is the first step in taking action so why not start writing them on the whiteboard for daily reminders of your ideas, let others write comments on the whiteboard and eventually you will tease out the ideas, action them and focus.
Now that you r sold on the concept let Office1web guide you through the key features and the whiteboard jargon allowing you to choose the right whiteboard for your environment.
First up, choose your surface, Enamel, Lacquered Steel or Melamine.
Enamel Whiteboards are more commonly bought for Schools and training facilities where they will get intensive everyday use, they are scratch, chip and acid resistant. They also tend to have less surface glare in all types of lighting. The elite of the whiteboard collection.
Lacquered Steel whiteboards are more commonly found around the office, boardroom and meeting rooms, they are lightweight and are intended for mid to heavy use. The executive of the whiteboard collection.
The other big benefit of both Enamel and lacquered Steel Whiteboards is that they have a Magnetic surface (Magnetic White boards) allowing you to stick magnets and magnetised Letters to them, always handy for displaying pictures, diagrams and notes.
Melamine whiteboards are the soldiers of the whiteboard collection. They are Non Magnetic and would be more for light and general use. They are scratch and pressure resistant to a degree and would be mainly found battling it out in the warehouse and the general office. Their lifespan would be roughly 3 years depending on their use.
