Magnetic Chalkboards

The choice of a magnetic blackboard depends on its use and is therefore a personal choice.
We can use it to attach the souvenir magnets collected in our travels, to write, to create a green wall, to create an equipped wall or for all these things together.
The wide range of KalaMitica chalkboards offers many possibilities to choose from blackboards with wooden support, passing to classic blackboards or the shaped to be attached to the wall.
To furnish the desk you can use those with wooden support, that with our magnetic containers, become excellent desk accessories.
If you want to order a completely personalized blackboard, we also offer a custom made service.

For those who love minimal design objects we recommend the classic blackboards that you will find in different colours.
Classic blackboards like 56x38 and 74x57 are our best selling products and they furnish in a simple and clean way. For those who love animals and nature and want something fun, we recommend looking at the shaped one.
If you want a blackboard for your desk, you will also find solutions with wooden bases.

Magnetic boards have several uses:
To write and draw. Most of our products are writable with chalks and with Securit liquid chalk markers, that we have tested and you can find in the appropriate section of our website.

To create new vertical space by freeing up the horizontal spaces, making functional and equipped walls.

In the bedroom, they offer solutions for desks and turn into vertical the bedside tables.

KalaMitica chalkboards are made of ferritic steel.
The various shapes and sizes are the result of a production process that uses a laser cutting system. Once the cut is made, the sheet is powder-coated to guarantee a long life.
The whole process is carried out in Italy, which guarantees the 100% Made in Italy quality of our products.

Our chalkboards are available in many different sizes, depending on the type.
More details can be found in the technical data sheet of each article.

No, KalaMitica chalkboards do not have magnetic charge.
They are made of ferritic steel, therefore they are perfect surfaces for hanging our containers, KalaMitica cachepots, souvenir magnets and all magnets in general.

Kalamitica chalkboards are always packaged with standard screws, wall plugs and screw covers.
Please note that walls made of other materials require different types of fixing accessories (not supplied).
Our chalkboards can also be fixed using silicone or silicone glues.
Once glued to the wall, we suggest fastening up the perimeter of the chalkboard with paper jointing tape for at least 24 hours.

The fixing holes are counter-sunk, 0.5 cm large and designed to for screws of size M3 x 24mm.

To identify the correct side of the board, simply observe the countersunk holes. When you insert the screw in the correct direction, it will fit perfectly into the hole and will not protrude from the surface of the board.

In any case, the front and back of the boards are perfectly identical in terms of paint and magnet attractiveness.

For some types of chalkboards, the base is provided in the packagem otherwise it is possible to buy it separately.

Our chalkboards can be customized in size, shape and colour.
In our website you can find a section about bespoke chalkboards.
