Absolutely! Mobile whiteboards offer powerful benefits in the workplace. Firstly, they help improve productivity because they allow people to explain strategies, methods, ideas engagingly. 

Secondly, they are very versatile, so they can be used in meetings, debriefings, training sessions, and more. You can share agendas, reminders, announcements, updates, and other relevant information. 

What size should I get?

The standard mobile whiteboard size for workplaces, conference rooms, offices, etc., is 1.2 metres high by 1.8 metres wide. It’s also common to see them with a length of 1.2 metres high by 2.4 metres wide. 

When choosing a size, you need to keep in mind the size of the room and the audience you’ll be dealing with. If the room and audience are large, you will need a larger whiteboard.

What are the best materials?

There are many kinds of materials used for the manufacture of mobile whiteboards. These are the most common:

• Melamine: This is a solution applied on the surface of the whiteboard. It’s not the most long-lasting material, so it’s the best option for casual to minimum usage. 
• Magne-Rite: Whiteboards made of this material feature PVC-coated steel attached to an MDF sheet. It’s durable and magnetic, perfect for long-term use.
• Dura-Rite: Whiteboards like this feature a high-pressure laminated finish and a non-magnetic MDF board as a backing material. These are very resistant, perfect for moderate to heavy use. 
• Glass: The use of tempered glass has been on the rise and they’re available in different colours and opacity levels. They are quite sturdy, durable, stain-resistant, and aesthetic. 
• Metal: These whiteboards feature a porcelain surface bonded to a steel sheet. They are durable and perfect for heavy use, so they will provide great value for your money.

What kinds of mobile whiteboards are there? 

There are many different kinds and the perfect option for you will depend on your needs. Here are some of the most popular ones:

• Magnetic Whiteboards: Mobile magnetic whiteboards are magnetised so you can use magnets featuring shapes, numbers, etc., or use them to attach papers to the whiteboard. 
• Projection Whiteboards: This type of mobile whiteboard will allow you to project media onto it. They have a matte finish and often feature a greyish hue, not to mention they’re a bit thicker.
