Whiteboards & Dry Wipe Boards for Office & Education
Visualise ideas, collaborate effectively, and teach with clarity. A high-quality whiteboard is the focal point of any productive space. Cobolt Furniture stocks one of the UK’s most comprehensive ranges of dry wipe surfaces, designed to suit every environment from university lecture theatres to compact home offices. Whether you need a permanent wall fixture or a flexible mobile solution, we have the board to match your workflow.
Our collection covers every requirement. Choose our premium magnetic whiteboards for multifunctional planning, or our cost-effective non-magnetic boards for pure writing utility. For agile workspaces, explore our freestanding mobile whiteboards that move with your team, or flip charts & easels for instant presentation capabilities.
Magnetic Functionality
Attach and display. Our magnetic boards feature a steel backing, allowing you to use magnets to attach documents, photos, and notes directly to the writing surface—perfect for agile scrum meetings.
Freestanding & Mobile
Go where the ideas are. Our freestanding mobile whiteboards feature lockable castors and double-sided pivoting boards, essentially giving you two writing surfaces that can be wheeled between rooms.
Vitreous Enamel
The ultimate surface. For heavy-use environments like classrooms, choose Vitreous Enamel Steel. It is scratch-resistant, non-porous, and comes with a 25-year surface guarantee against staining.
Flip Chart Easels
Presentation ready. Ideal for training days and conferences, our flip charts combine a dry wipe surface with a paper clamp, offering versatile presentation methods in one unit.
Glass Boards
Modern aesthetics. Upgrade your boardroom with our magnetic glass whiteboards. Available in various colours, they offer a sleek, contemporary look that never stains and cleans perfectly every time.
Non-Magnetic Value
Budget friendly. For simple note-taking and reminders, our non-magnetic melamine boards offer high-contrast writing surfaces at an accessible price point.
The Cobolt Advantage: Surfaces That Last
Not all whiteboards are created equal. Buying a cheap board often means dealing with "ghosting" (permanent ink stains) within months.
Cobolt Furniture sources boards with premium coatings and enamels designed for longevity. Whether you choose a Coated Steel board for your office or a Vitreous Enamel board for a busy classroom, we guarantee a surface that stays white and cleans easily for years to come.
Whiteboard FAQs
What is the difference between Coated Steel and Vitreous Enamel?
Coated Steel is excellent for general office use; it accepts magnets and wipes clean easily. Vitreous Enamel is the premium choice; it is a glass-like coating fired onto steel at high temperatures. It is incredibly scratch-resistant and ideal for heavy usage areas like schools.
Can I install these boards horizontally and vertically?
Yes. Most of our wall-mounted whiteboards are designed to be mounted in either landscape or portrait orientation. The fixings are usually concealed in the corners for a neat finish, regardless of orientation.
How do I prevent ghosting on my whiteboard?
"Ghosting" occurs when ink penetrates the surface. To prevent this, always use high-quality dry wipe markers and clean the board regularly with a specialist fluid. Choosing a Vitreous Enamel or Glass Board eliminates ghosting entirely due to their non-porous surfaces.
Are mobile whiteboards stable?
Yes. Our mobile boards are built with a sturdy steel crossbar base for low-centre-of-gravity stability. The heavy-duty castors feature locking mechanisms (brakes) to keep the board completely still while you are writing.
Do you sell combination boards?
Yes. We offer boards that are half whiteboard and half noticeboard (cork or felt). These are perfect for small offices or kitchens where you need to write notes and pin up letters simultaneously.
