US Markerboard finds Whiteboard Paint an Eco-Friendly Solution to Unwanted Chalkboards

 

Holbrook, MA, June 16, 2009 – US Markerboard, leading global provider of whiteboards and visual writing surfaces, is proud to announce the addition of IdeaPaint, the high performance dry-erase paint solution, to its stable of premium whiteboard products.   Perfect for school, office or home. 

 

 “Schools finally have a clean and environmentally safe way to convert old unwanted chalkboards into fresh clean whiteboards, and it’s called IdeaPaint,” says Scott Newman, President and CEO of US Markerboard. Millions of pounds of old chalkboards are thrown into America’s landfills every year.  “If schools are looking for an environmental friendly and economically feasible solution to their old chalkboards, this product makes sense.”

 

However, there is even a bigger issue at stake.  Air Quality.  In many schools today, furnishings including desks, chairs and whiteboards, are judged by their impact to air quality in the classroom.  Schools are going green and are looking for the most environmentally safe products for their schools.  IdeaPaint, which is formaldehyde-free, emits no harmful chemicals and has passed California 01350 for Indoor Air Quality.
