Quick answer: LINTEX glassboards suit schools, colleges, and workspaces because they combine a ghost-free tempered-glass writing surface with Scandinavian design. The range includes wall-mounted panels (Mood Wall, Silk Wall), mobile boards (Mood Mobile, Flow Mobile), and acoustic-backed units (Mood Fabric), so you can match the board to the room rather than the other way around.
Why glassboards outperform traditional whiteboards
Standard melamine and porcelain whiteboards scratch and ghost over time. LINTEX glassboards are built from 4 mm toughened, scratch-resistant glass that wipes completely clean, even after years of heavy use. The benefits are practical rather than cosmetic:
- No ghosting or staining -- dry-wipe markers erase fully without solvent sprays.
- Long service life -- the glass surface does not degrade the way lacquered or melamine boards do.
- Magnetic models available -- pin documents alongside written notes without a separate noticeboard.
- Wide colour range -- over 20 shades, from classic white to soft pastels and bold accent colours, so the board can support inclusive teaching or complement a brand scheme.
- Mobile or fixed -- wall-mounted and castored versions cover fixed classrooms and flexible open-plan areas alike.

The LINTEX glassboard range explained
LINTEX produces several distinct glassboard families. Each one is designed for a specific type of space and use pattern.
Mood Wall
The Mood Wall is a frameless, wall-mounted glass writing board available in more than 20 colours. Concealed fixings create a floating effect that works well in boardrooms, seminar rooms, and creative studios. A magnetic version is available for rooms that also need to display printed materials. Because it ships in a range of sizes, specifiers can order a single panel for a meeting room or a sequence of panels to create a continuous writing wall.
Mood Mobile
The Mood Mobile brings the Mood Wall's glass surface onto a castored aluminium frame. Both sides are writable, so two people or two groups can use the board simultaneously. The castors lock, keeping the board stable during use, and release easily for repositioning. It is particularly useful in schools and colleges where rooms serve multiple purposes across the day.
Flow Mobile
The Flow Mobile has the same mobile, double-sided format as the Mood Mobile but features soft rounded corners. This makes it a better fit for primary schools, SEN settings, and any space where a less angular aesthetic is preferred. The rounded profile also reduces the risk of knocks to corners in corridors and busy classrooms.
Silk Wall
The Silk Wall uses a satin-finish glass rather than high-gloss, reducing reflective glare under overhead lighting. This is important in lecture theatres and open-plan offices where bright spotlights or daylight from the side can make a glossy board difficult to read. The muted surface finish suits environments that want a subtler, more architectural look.
Mood Fabric
The Mood Fabric is a double-sided mobile unit: one face is writable glass, the other is sound-absorbing fabric. In open-plan teaching areas, breakout zones, and agile offices, background noise is often as much of a problem as lack of writing space. The Mood Fabric addresses both at once. The fabric panel meets Class B acoustic absorption, providing a meaningful noise reduction in rooms without treated ceilings or walls.
How to use LINTEX glassboards in schools and colleges
Educational environments make heavy demands on writing surfaces, and LINTEX boards are designed accordingly.
- Classroom teaching -- the Mood Wall or Silk Wall mounts flush to the front wall in place of, or alongside, an interactive screen. The high-contrast writing surface reads clearly from the back of a 30-seat classroom.
- Group work and breakout spaces -- a pair of Mood Mobiles or Flow Mobiles create instant writing zones in a corridor, library, or hall without any fixed installation.
- SEN and inclusive settings -- pastel-tinted Mood Wall or Flow Mobile boards reduce visual contrast for pupils with visual stress or dyslexia, while the ghost-free surface keeps the room calm and uncluttered.
- Staffrooms and departmental offices -- a single Mood Wall panel replaces a tired paper-based planning board, giving staff a permanent, easily updated timetable, rota, or event display.
- Reception and corridors -- a colour-matched Mood Wall panel in a school's brand colour makes a striking, practical welcome display without looking like an afterthought.
How to use LINTEX glassboards in offices and workspaces
Offices and commercial fit-outs have different priorities, but the LINTEX range covers them equally well.
- Boardrooms and meeting rooms -- the frameless Mood Wall in charcoal, slate, or white fits a corporate interior without the visual weight of a framed board. No ghosting means sensitive diagrams or financial data disappears completely between meetings.
- Open-plan agile areas -- the Mood Mobile or Mood Fabric creates temporary room dividers with a writing or display function built in, reducing the need for separate partition screens.
- Creative studios and design agencies -- a run of Mood Wall panels along one wall creates a floor-to-ceiling writing and pinning surface for campaign planning, sprint mapping, or concept development.
- Training and CPD rooms -- glassboards never need rebooting, have no compatibility issues, and clean between sessions in seconds, making them reliable for back-to-back training days.
- Reception areas -- a branded colour Mood Wall panel in a reception communicates professionalism and gives receptionists a practical space to note daily information for visitors.
Specifying the right LINTEX glassboard
Before ordering, consider four factors:
- Fixed or mobile? -- wall-mounted boards (Mood Wall, Silk Wall) are best where the layout is permanent. Mobile boards (Mood Mobile, Flow Mobile, Mood Fabric) suit multi-use spaces or rooms that reconfigure frequently.
- Magnetic or non-magnetic? -- if staff need to display printed sheets alongside written notes, specify the magnetic version of the Mood Wall.
- Gloss or satin? -- choose the Silk Wall for rooms with strong overhead lighting or side windows to avoid glare. High-gloss models suit spaces with controlled, diffuse lighting.
- Acoustic requirement? -- if background noise is a problem, the Mood Fabric's sound-absorbing reverse panel adds value without requiring a separate acoustic treatment.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the Mood Wall and the Silk Wall?
Both are wall-mounted LINTEX glassboards made from 4 mm tempered glass. The Mood Wall has a high-gloss surface that gives strong colour vibrancy and is available in the full LINTEX colour range. The Silk Wall uses a satin-finish glass that reduces glare under bright or directional lighting, making it the better choice for lecture theatres, open-plan offices with large windows, or any space where reflected light is a problem.
Are LINTEX glassboards magnetic?
Some models are magnetic and some are not. The Mood Wall is available in a magnetic version, letting you use it as a combined writing and display surface. The Mood Mobile, Flow Mobile, and Mood Fabric can also be supplied with a magnetic glass face depending on the configuration. Check the product listing or ask our team to confirm the magnetic option for the specific model you need.
Can LINTEX glassboards be used in primary schools?
Yes. The Flow Mobile is the most popular choice for primary settings because its rounded corners remove the sharp edge risk associated with standard rectangular boards. Pastel colour options on both the Flow Mobile and Mood Wall also support inclusive and SEN-friendly classroom environments by lowering visual contrast for pupils with visual stress or dyslexia.
How are LINTEX glassboards fixed to a wall?
LINTEX wall-mounted boards use concealed fixings that create a clean, frameless floating appearance. The boards are supplied with a fixing template and hardware. Installation requires drilling into the wall at the specified fixing points. For hollow partition walls or complex substrates, we recommend arranging an installation quote through Presentation Spaces so the correct fixings are specified for your wall type.
How do you clean a LINTEX glassboard?
Standard dry-wipe whiteboard markers erase from the glass surface with a dry cloth or standard whiteboard eraser. For a deeper clean, a damp cloth with a mild detergent is sufficient. No specialist solvents are required. Unlike melamine boards, the glass surface does not absorb ink, so ghosting is not a problem even after extended use.
What sizes are available in the LINTEX range?
LINTEX glassboards are available in a wide range of standard sizes, typically from around 600 x 900 mm up to 1200 x 2400 mm for wall-mounted models. Mobile boards come in standard panel widths designed to fit through standard door openings. Custom sizes are available for some models. Contact our team with your room dimensions for a sizing recommendation.
