Square Hanging Board
A square hanging board is a versatile display surface typically used for communication, organization, or decorative purposes. Its core characteristic is its square shape and ability to be mounted on a wall or suspended from a ceiling or other structure.
Material
These boards are constructed from a variety of materials, influencing their durability, cost, and intended use:
- Cork: A traditional material, cork boards are lightweight, easily pin-compatible, and relatively inexpensive. They are suitable for temporary displays and general office use.
- Whiteboard (Melamine or Porcelain Steel): Offer a smooth, non-porous surface for use with dry-erase markers. Porcelain steel boards are more durable and stain-resistant than melamine. Commonly found in offices, classrooms, and meeting rooms.
- Magnetic Whiteboard: Combines the properties of a whiteboard with a magnetic surface, allowing for the attachment of magnets and magnetic accessories.
- Wood: Provides a more aesthetic appearance and can be used for decorative displays or notice boards. Often used in homes, cafes, or retail spaces.
- Acrylic/Plexiglass: Offers a modern look and can be transparent or colored. Suitable for displaying artwork, photos, or menus.
- Fabric (e.g., felt, burlap): Used for pinboards or display boards, often covered with decorative fabric for a softer appearance.

- Communication: Displaying notices, announcements, memos, schedules, or task lists.
