Melamine Non Magnetic Whiteboard
The melamine whiteboard uses a melamine coated MDF writing sheet instead of painted steel.
What This Board Is
The melamine whiteboard uses a melamine coated MDF writing sheet instead of painted steel. It looks and writes like a standard whiteboard but the surface is not magnetic, which brings the cost down for rooms where nothing is ever pinned to the board. It is the volume option for offices, schools and workshops buying boards by the pallet.
Key Benefits- Lower cost per board than a steel faced whiteboard for the same writing area
- Lighter panel than a steel build, which simplifies wall fixing
- Same aluminium frame ABS corners and pen tray as the magnetic range so a mixed order looks consistent
- Six standard sizes up to 1200x2400mm
Buyers
- Buyers filling a whole site where budget per board matters
- Stationery wholesalers carrying an entry level board line
- Facilities teams replacing boards across many small rooms
Pain Points
- Paying for a magnetic surface in rooms where magnets are never used
- Board budgets that will not stretch across every room at steel board prices
- Heavy boards that need special fixings on light partition walls
Where It Is Used
- Open plan offices with a board at every desk cluster
- Schools buying boards in quantity for general teaching rooms
- Workshops using boards for shift notes and job lists
- Home offices and study rooms

Checked Before Packing
- Dry erase write and wipe test on the melamine face
- Edges checked for melamine chipping before framing
- Frame and corner fit checked on every assembled board
What Can Change
- Sizes outside the six standards can be custom made
- Pen tray fitted or omitted
- Ordered alongside magnetic boards so one shipment covers a whole building
Getting It Right On Site
- Use dry erase markers only; permanent marker is hard to remove from melamine
- Erase regularly rather than leaving writing on the board for weeks
- Clean with a barely damp cloth and dry immediately so moisture does not reach the MDF edge
How It Differs From The Alternatives
Compared with Wall mounted magnetic whiteboard
The steel faced board holds magnets and lasts longer under heavy daily writing; melamine is cheaper.
Compared with Glass whiteboard
Glass is the most durable writing surface in the range and melamine the most economical.
