Forbo, a manufacturer of carpets and furniture coverings, also has Bulletin Board in its offer. What is it?

Bulletin Board is made from natural and renewable resources. The combination of resin, finely ground cork and oxidized linseed oil makes it resilient and flexible, and much more durable than a regular cork board. Its advantage is also that it does not crumble - pins can be driven into it to its full depth, the product has very little memory effect.
In addition, Bulletin Board is hygienic, does not attract dust, and has bacteriostatic properties, which is especially important in places such as educational or medical institutions. An additional advantage is aesthetics - Bulletin Board is available in 15 beautiful colors - the palette includes several shades of gray, beiges, oranges, as well as green, blue and yellow. The board is produced in accordance with sustainable principles.
