Naga glass white boards can also be magnetic, so all it takes is the use of a “rare earth” magnet to turn your white board from traditional meeting minutes to a multi-purpose notice board.

A focus on ease of use

The Naga ethos of “Danish design for your workplace” isn’t just a range of products, it’s also inherent in the  brand. Naga makes it their business to ensure your business has the tools it needs to run smoothly. That tool? A multi-purpose, glass white board.

The Naga range includes wall-mounted boards in almost every shape, colour and size to suit whatever use is required of them. Naga also makes mobile glass white boards for use in offices, hotels, conferences and roadshows.

Whatever the product, Naga has prioritised functionality and that focus is just one of the many things that make these boards unique.

The Naga range

Here at JustBoards we have an eye for quality, so naturally Naga magnetic glass boards caught our attention. Our range of Naga products offers a modern take on the traditional white board.

Naga Coloured Magnetic Glass Boards

Naga coloured magnetic glass boards are rectangular write-on/wipe-off white boards in a range of colours to suit any interior. They come in multiple sizes:

●  450mm x 450mm (18 colours)

●  400mm x 600mm (11 colours)

●  600mm x 800mm (8 colours)

●  1000mm x 1000mm (8 colours)

●  2000mm x 1000mm (light blue only)

Any board purchase includes one marker and two “rare earth” magnets. All screws, plugs and drilling templates are also supplied.

Naga Nord Magnetic Circle Glass Boards

Naga Nord magnetic circle glass boards are a more visually interesting take on the traditional rectangular white board. Available in a range of natural tones inspired by nature, they retain the ease of cleaning and use that make their rectangular counterparts so great.

These boards are available in a selection of sizes:

●  100mm

●  350mm

●  450mm

●  1000mm

Naga Planners

Naga planners are part of the Naga Business range. These boards are designed to make weekly or monthly planning a breeze with specially segmented templates printed permanently on the glass.

They come in four sizes:

●  450mm x 450mm  (white only)

●  400mm x 600mm (black, white or coloured)

●  800mm x 600mm (mix of blue and green)

●  1200mm x 900mm (coloured)

Each purchase includes two markers and two “rare earth” magnets.

Naga Mobile Glass Board

Naga mobile glass boards are a way to take the quality and versatility of a glass white board on the road. Consisting of a double-sided Starphire white glass board mounted on a black metal stand, these boards are the stars of the Naga Business range.

Sized at 1200mm wide and 2050mm high, the board has easy write-on/wipe-off functionality as well as a built-in pen tray and storage compartment. If yours is a business that thrives on the road, then you can’t go past these boards.

Naga Signage Boards

Naga signage boards come in two variations:

●  The magnetic world map: a glass board with a printed decal of a world map as standard

●  The blackboard: sized at 800mm x 600mm with a pine frame

Naga Hooks

Naga hooks are Naga’s answer to hanging solutions. Each glass/terrazzo circle can be written on with easy-write on/wipe-off functionality as standard. They’re super strong and magnetic, making them ideal for use with the Naga magnetic glass boards.

Naga magnetic glass white boards add sophistication to any interior

Simple, versatile and sustainable, Naga magnetic glass white boards have taken Scandinavian design principles to heart.

Now that you know what rare-earth magnets are and why the best whiteboards need them, let’s get into the scientific nitty gritty. First, we’re going to look at the two most common kinds of rare-earth magnets as mentioned above.

Neodymium magnets

Neodymium magnets were invented in the 1980s. They’re made up of an alloy of neodymium, iron and boron (often abbreviated to NIB).

When introduced to the market, both the raw materials and the patent licenses were very expensive. However, through the 1990s the price steadily decreased. Today, neodymium magnets are both the strongest and most affordable type of rare-earth magnet. Common applications include:

●  Electric motors for cordless tools

●  Hard disk drives

●  Magnetic hold-downs

●  Jewellery clasps

●  Glass whiteboards!

Samarium-cobalt magnets

While neodymium magnets are stronger and more available, we wouldn’t have them without the samarium-cobalt magnets which were invented first. Despite their head-start, these are less common than neodymium magnets due to their higher cost and lower strength. However, samarium-cobalt magnets perform much better at high temperatures, so they tend to dominate in industrial applications.

Why are rare-earth magnets so strong?

The strength of rare-earth magnets is a combination of two factors:

1.  Their crystalline structures which have high magnetic anisotropy

2.  Their atoms can have high magnetic moments.

High magnetic anisotropy

Magnetic anisotropy is how directionally dependent a material’s magnetic properties are. When a material has a high magnetic anisotropy it means it magnetises along a specific axis, called the “easy axis”. It also means the material is resistant to magnetising in any other direction. It’s this resistance to changing direction that also gives rare-earth magnets very high resistance to losing their strength.

High magnetic moments

A magnetic moment is the orientation and strength of a magnetic object. The higher the magnetic moment, the stronger the magnet.

Rare-earth elements can have high magnetic moments because the orbital structure of their atoms contains numerous unpaired electrons. When electrons pair, they spin in opposite directions, canceling out their magnetic fields. Thus, the more unpaired electrons spinning in the same direction, the stronger the magnetic field produced.

Transform your glass whiteboard with rare-earth magnets

Rare-earth magnets are as functional as they are fascinating. Made from special alloys, they’re a great way to transform your glass whiteboard into a multi-functional noticeboard.

Now you know everything there is to know about rare-earth magnets: what they are, how they work and how they can benefit your whiteboard use.
