There are so many
manufacturers out there trying to make a name for themselves that the
buyer of office supplies is able to be as choosy as he or she wishes
when it comes to product features, prices and capacity. This phenomenon, believe it or not, even
extends to items as seemingly straightforward as whiteboards--also
known as dry-erase boards.In this article, we will take a look at
some of the product features that Quartet has included in its
innovative line of whiteboards and dry-erase marker boards.
Buying office supplies is not the
relatively easy task that is once was-and that's a good thing. There
are so many manufacturers out there trying to make a name for
themselves that the buyer of office supplies is able to be as choosy as
he or she wishes when it comes to product features, prices and
capacity. This phenomenon, believe it or not, even extends to items as
seemingly straightforward as whiteboards--also known as dry-erase
boards. There is a surprising amount of difference between the
offerings of the different manufacturers of whiteboards out there, and
here in this article, we will take a look at some of the product
features that Quartet has included in its innovative line of
whiteboards and dry-erase marker boards.
DuraMax Porcelain: If you have worked with dry erase
boards in any capacity, you have run into the problems of scratches and
dents that erasers and pens-as well as normal, everyday transport and
handling--can leave behind. Quartet has come up with a great solution
in the form of DuraMax porcelain--a hard wearing, extremely durable
surface that Quartet claims will stand up to even the highest traffic,
heaviest handed use.
Total Erase Surface: Another problem
that comes along with the cheaper dry erase boards is that of ghosting
or staining. Nothing is more frustrating or distracting than trying to
give a presentation, and not being able to cleanly erase whatever was
on the board before. Though occasional cleaning is required, there is
no board out there with a better erasing performance.
Magnetic
Surface: Having your dry erase board double as a magnetic surface
increases your flexibility immensely, essentially making it so your
whiteboard can double as a bulletin board as well. This is also a great
way to attach communications and documents without damaging them, as
you would with the normal push-pin type of bulletin board.
Grid:
If you've ever found yourself under pressure at an important
presentation, and needing to draw a lot of straight lines, or do more
precise writing on a dry erase board, you will truly appreciate
Quartet's grid feature. The pattern it uses is subtle and dotted, and
best of all, it remains invisible to your audience.
ISTA:
Nothing is worse than ordering a high-end product and finding that is
has been damaged in shipping. ISTA stands for International Safe
Transit Association, and it means that the packaging that Quartet uses
is tested and certified to arrive free of damage.
Quartet
Motion Conference System: A very versatile presentation system, this is
a very portable system that offers many possibilities. The cabinet has
a built-in mounting track, so you can take it anywhere, and there is a
privacy screen that can cover up to four boards at once, enabling you
to present in sections, and to keep your audience from jumping ahead.
All of the boards are also double sided, so you can prepare some of
them ahead of time, and display them when you see fit. As an added
bonus, according to Quartet, the motion boards weigh in at a very
reasonable four pounds making them easy to handle and transport.
