Frequently asked questions

Traditional blackboards are not inherently magnetic. They are typically made of a material like slate or a synthetic substitute coated with a dark, matte paint or laminate, which does not possess magnetic properties.

However, there are some specialty models that have a magnetic surface. These are typically made by adding a layer of magnetic material beneath the surface, allowing magnets to stick to the board. These are often used in educational settings or offices where both writing and displaying magnetic materials are desired.

So, while standard models are not magnetic, there are magnetic options available for those who require both functionalities.

The choice between blackboards and whiteboards often depends on personal preference and specific needs. Here are some considerations for both:

Blackboards (Chalkboards)

  • Cost: Generally, they tend to be more cost-effective .
  • Durability: They can last for many years if properly maintained.
  • Chalk Dust: Some people find chalk dust irritating or messy.
  • Visibility: Chalk can sometimes be less visible, especially if the board is not cleaned regularly.

Whiteboards

  • Cleanliness: They are easier to clean and maintain.
  • Marker Odour: Some people are sensitive to the odor of whiteboard markers.
  • Durability: They can get scratched easily, affecting their appearance over time.
  • Cost: Generally, they tend to be more expensive.

Ultimately, the choice often comes down to personal preference, budget, and the specific needs of the users. Some institutions may prefer the classic feel of a blackboard, while others may prioritise the convenience and cleanliness of a whiteboard.
