Smooth Melamine Surface
Optimised for writing. The high-quality melamine finish ensures dry wipe markers glide on smoothly and erase cleanly with regular care, perfect for daily to-do lists and rapid brainstorming sessions.
Eco-Friendly Choice
Sustainable materials. Our eco-friendly boards are manufactured using recycled core materials and timber from sustainable forestry sources, helping you organise your space responsibly.
Combination Boards
Dual functionality. Can't decide between writing and pinning? Our combination boards offer a split surface (half whiteboard, half cork/felt), maximising utility in compact home offices.
Lightweight Design
Easy installation. Lacking the heavy steel backing of magnetic boards, these melamine units are lightweight and easy to mount on partition walls or temporary office dividers.
Cost Effective
Smart value. Melamine boards offer professional writing clarity at a more accessible price point than vitreous enamel steel, making them ideal for startups and student accommodation.
Versatile Aesthetics
Fits your style. Available with sleek anodised aluminium frames for a corporate look, or warm light oak frames for a softer, residential feel in your study.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between magnetic and non-magnetic?
The core difference is the backing. Non-magnetic boards use a melamine laminate on wood composite, which is excellent for writing but holds no magnets. Magnetic boards use a steel backing. If you only need to write, non-magnetic is a lighter, more affordable choice.
How do I clean a melamine whiteboard?
To keep the surface pristine, use a dedicated whiteboard cleaning fluid and a soft microfibre cloth. Regular cleaning prevents "ghosting" (faint ink residue). Avoid abrasive household cleaners which can strip the melamine coating.
Are there eco-friendly whiteboard options?
Yes. We are committed to sustainability. Our Eco-Friendly range features boards made with a high percentage of recycled waste material in the core and frames sourced from sustainable forestry by-products.
What is a combination board?
A combination board is a hybrid unit split between a dry-wipe surface and a pinning surface (felt or cork). This allows you to write notes on one side and pin receipts or photos on the other—the ultimate organiser for small spaces.
Are non-magnetic boards easier to install?
Generally, yes. Because they do not have a steel backing, they are significantly lighter than magnetic boards. This makes them easier to handle during installation and suitable for mounting on lighter partition walls.
