U.S School finds treasure in Smarter Surfaces' self adhesive whiteboard film. Here’s an insider story on how to transform regular walls into dry-erase surfaces.

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, July 15, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The Emery-Weiner School in Southwest Houston is a renowned co-educational institute offering senior and high school education in a modern setting, designed for learning and growth. Providing maximum support to uphold the highest standards of education that can shape the future of the students has been the core objective of the institution since its inception. In an effort to ensure the best educational infrastructure and improved student engagement in the classrooms, they upgraded their learning spaces with Smarter Surfaces Whiteboard Films and the results have surpassed all expectations.

Terry Nelson, the Director of Facilities at the Emery-Weiner School mentioned – “We loved Smarter Surfaces' Self-Adhesive Whiteboard Films. The ease of application was amazing – our learning spaces were transformed in no time, with minimal disruption. This has been a game-changer for both teachers and students. Teachers now have a versatile writing surface, allowing for more dynamic and interactive lessons. The convenience of the self-adhesive film has made creating collaborative learning environments simple. It supports a more engaging and productive learning experience for the students.”

Reduced attention spans of students and less classroom engagement have been a concern for all educational institutes in recent times. However, the Emery-Weiner School quickly found out that a simple solution like the whiteboard film can be extremely helpful in keeping students better engaged and interested in lessons. It also helped with creativity and peer learning.

Smarter Surfaces, a leader in collaborative surface solutions, is well known for their range of innovative whiteboard surface products that include the award-winning whiteboard paint, whiteboard wallpapers, and the self adhesive whiteboard films. Each of these products comes with their unique features to match different needs.

While the paints and wallpapers are designed to transform any smooth wall, wood, or glass surface into a high-end whiteboard, the self-adhesive whiteboard films turn any smooth, non-absorbent surface, except walls, into a dry-erase board. This makes it the best choice for several applications, including:

- Refurbishing old whiteboards or blackboards
- Creating writable surfaces on desks, tables, doors, and windows
- Transforming glass partitions into writable dividers

The Emery-Weiner School wanted to bring collaborative learning to the forefront by turning different surfaces into effective whiteboards. Time has been a critical factor in the project because they needed the learning spaces to be operational immediately after the new upgrade. Plus, they wanted a premium whiteboard solution that was simple to install and would provide unmatched service for years.

Smarter Surfaces self adhesive whiteboard films were just the right solution for their needs. The self adhesive backing, which needs to be removed just before application, makes the installation process extremely simple. It takes minimal time and effort to complete the application even when done on a large scale. Apart from being a quick solution, these whiteboard rolls offer a bunch of added benefits that make them the perfect classroom partner for teachers, an interesting collaborative solution for the kids, and a maintenance-free, long-term upgrade for school management.
