Premium whiteboards for modern spaces—specified with confidence

When a room is designed to be used (and seen), a whiteboard shouldn't look like an afterthought. This range is chosen for boardrooms, collaboration zones and education upgrades where finish, longevity and reliable installation guidance matter.

Designed aesthetic Refined visual presence for client-facing and contemporary interiors that complements your design intent.
Superior lifecycle value Premium magnetic surface specified for long-term use where frequent cleaning and daily writing is expected.
Project-friendly procurement Clear quotes, realistic lead times, and comprehensive documentation for smoother specification and installation.
AIR range • visual reference Architect-specified whiteboard visual reference
Professional specification-grade whiteboards designed for boardrooms, collaboration spaces, and education environments where aesthetics and performance both matter.

Why architects specify this type of whiteboard

Premium boards are typically selected for spaces where aesthetics and performance are both part of the brief. The goal is simple: keep the room looking intentional, and keep the writing surface performing well over time—without compromise.

Made to belong in the interior

A calmer, cleaner appearance with refined detailing that integrates seamlessly into meeting rooms, studios and circulation spaces—avoiding the "add-on" look of basic whiteboards.

Specified for heavy use

Chosen where the board will be written on daily and wiped frequently throughout its lifecycle—helping maintain a professional appearance and avoid the ghosting and staining common with lower-grade surfaces.

Clear installation documentation

Projects move faster when fixing positions and mounting approaches are easy to confirm. Complete mounting instructions are available for download, with dimensional diagrams and substrate guidance.

Specification highlights

Written in a specifier-friendly format with clear intent, practical notes, and links to technical documentation. Where your project requires exact figures (e.g. weight tolerances, warranty terms, material certifications), we recommend confirming these details against the manufacturer's technical datasheets or contacting our specification team.

Schedule item Recommended entry (architect-ready wording)
Product family Range used on this page AIR whiteboard range (project/specifier line). Includes core variants 27826AIR through 27830AIR, plus related configurations: LINES (linear arrays), BM (bespoke mounting), K-AIR (kit variants), and OMV (oversized/modular variants). Product codes and mounting brackets are documented in the AIR Mounting Instruction PDF (document reference 1043).
Primary use case Where it performs best Executive boardrooms, meeting rooms, collaboration zones, design studios, training suites, and education upgrade projects where both aesthetic integration and long-life surface performance are specified requirements. Suitable for client-facing environments and spaces with high daily use.
Visual intent Interior integration Specify when the whiteboard needs to integrate seamlessly with the room's design language: clean edge detailing, minimal visual distraction, and suitable finish for client-facing walls. The refined appearance avoids the "institutional" look of basic whiteboards while maintaining full functionality.
Surface specification Writing performance Premium magnetic whiteboard surface suitable for frequent use with dry-wipe markers. Surface is specified for daily writing/erasing cycles over extended lifecycle. Performs well in high-traffic environments where consistent erasability and ghost-resistance are required.
Mounting / fixing approach Installation coordination Install using manufacturer's mounting instruction (downloadable PDF, document ref 1043). Confirm wall substrate type (plasterboard, blockwork, concrete, stud partition) and select appropriate fixings for site conditions and loading. Mounting system allows for level adjustment and secure fixing to various wall types. Coordinate early with other wall-mounted elements (AV equipment, power, acoustic panels).
Dimensions & coordination Design stage considerations Multiple standard sizes available; bespoke sizes can be quoted for project-specific requirements. Coordinate board size, mounting height, and fixing positions early in design development alongside power/data outlets, wall-mounted displays, acoustic treatments, and architectural finishes. Mounting guide includes dimensional references, clearance requirements, and elevation diagrams for installation alignment.
Procurement route How projects typically purchase Commonly specified at RIBA Stage 3/4 (Developed Design), included in tender documentation, then ordered by the client, main contractor, fit-out contractor, or FF&E supplier depending on project structure. We support specification teams, quantity surveyors, and contractors with quotations, lead times, and technical queries at all project stages.
Lead time guidance Programme planning Standard configurations: typically 2-3 weeks from order confirmation. Bespoke sizes or large quantities: 3-5 weeks depending on specification. We recommend confirming lead times at tender stage and allowing buffer time for delivery coordination with installation programme milestones.
Information required for accurate quotation Fastest route to firm pricing Room type and intended use • Required board dimensions and quantity • Wall substrate type • Site postcode (for delivery planning) • Programme deadline or installation window • Any installation constraints (e.g. glazed partitions, wall services, acoustic linings, restricted access).

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers for specifiers, contractors and fit-out teams working on commercial and education projects.

Can you help at design stage, before tender?

Absolutely. We work with architects and designers from concept stage onwards. Share your room type, approximate sizes and any constraints (e.g. glazed partitions, AV equipment, acoustic treatments) and we'll recommend suitable options with indicative pricing and lead times. This helps you build accurate cost plans and avoid specification issues later in the project.

Do you provide technical documentation for tender packages?

Yes. The AIR range mounting instruction PDF is available to download on this page and includes dimensional diagrams, fixing positions, and substrate guidance. We can also provide product datasheets, specification clauses, and sample NBS specifications on request. For bespoke configurations or large projects, we'll work with your team to provide tender-ready documentation.

What's the quickest way to get an accurate quotation?

Provide board dimensions, quantity, wall substrate type, site postcode, and your target programme date. If the boards will be installed near wall-mounted services (displays, power outlets, acoustic panels), include a quick note so we can flag any coordination considerations. The more detail you provide upfront, the faster we can return a complete quote with confirmed lead times.

Can boards be supplied in bespoke sizes?

Yes, bespoke sizes can be manufactured to suit specific wall dimensions or design requirements. Lead times for custom sizes are typically 3-5 weeks depending on specification and quantity. Share your requirements and we'll confirm feasibility, pricing, and programme implications for your project.

What wall substrates are these boards suitable for?

The AIR range mounting system is compatible with plasterboard (with appropriate fixing), blockwork, concrete, and stud partitions. The mounting instruction PDF includes substrate-specific guidance and recommended fixing types. For unusual wall constructions or loading constraints, contact our technical team for advice—it's worth confirming the approach before tender or ordering stage.

Who handles installation?

Boards are typically installed by the main contractor, fit-out contractor, or specialist installer as part of the wider project works. We provide comprehensive mounting instructions and technical support, but installation is not included in the supply price. For complex installations or if you need installer recommendations, we can connect you with experienced contractors in your region.

What's included in the warranty?

Warranty terms vary by product range and configuration. Standard coverage includes manufacturing defects and surface performance under normal use conditions. For project-specific warranty requirements or extended cover, contact our team who can provide detailed warranty documentation and discuss options for your particular specification.
