A Buyer’s Guide to Purchasing Glassboards Online

Going online to purchase a new whiteboard can be an overwhelming experience. A lot of buyers start off by saying, ‘I need a white, rectangular board to write on. How hard can it be to choose one?’ But then they find there are a LOT of options, with different materials, features and prices to consider.

If you’re interested in buying a premium product, you’ll probably quickly hone in on glassboards, for several reasons:

  1. Design – they have a sleek look.
  2. Durability – they can withstand heavy use for many years.
  3. Customisable – they come in a wide range of colours and sizes.
  4. Non-porous – they won’t stain or ghost.
  5. Cleanliness – they are the easiest to keep clean.
  6. ROI – they generally have a lifetime surface warranty.

Standard Glass vs Starphire Glass

Standard Glass VS Starphire Glass Comparison

It’s common knowledge that glassboards have replaced whiteboards as the preeminent mode for a presenter to demonstrate or display information to a group, in the same way that whiteboards replaced blackboards.

What’s not so commonly known is that there are two types of glass available when choosing a glassboard – standard glass and starphire glass.

All glass is made from a variety of sand called silica sand, which has varying amounts of iron in it. The purity level of the sand determines what kind of glass is produced.

If the sand has a high or medium level of iron in it, the glass produced is called standard glass and will have a greenish tinge.

On the other hand, if low-iron silica sand is used to make glass, it’s called starphire glass, or water clear glass, which gives the glass a cleaner, more sparkly look.

The Benefits of Starphire Glassboards

  1. 1. Clear vs Ultra-clear

While standard glass is rated as ‘clear glass’, starphire glass is rated as ‘ultra-clear.’ As the names suggest, starphire has the edge when it comes to comparisons regarding clarity and brilliance. If you’re the type of buyer that puts a high emphasis on quality, then starphire is the right choice.

  1. 2. Colour matching

A lot of buyers choose to have a coloured glassboard. The green tint in standard glass distorts colour, which is a problem if you need to colour match your glassboard to painted fittings or to the colour scheme in a room.

Starphire glass has high fidelity colour transmission. Because you start with a clearer, more transparent canvas, you’ll end up with a finished product in the exact shade you want.

  1. 3. Creating the right impression

Having a great office design plays an integral part in the success of any business. It helps set the right tone with employees and creates a good first impression on potential clients.

When you’re refurbishing or updating your office, and you’re choosing a new glassboard, remember the maxim: ‘Extraordinary businesses deserve extraordinary products.’ Why settle for ordinary when extraordinary is not much more expensive?

Choosing the Right Supplier

If you decide to go ahead with purchasing a starphire glassboard, there are two important questions to ask:

  1. Am I buying from a legitimate business?
  2. And if so, is it a business that specialises in producing this type of glassboard?

Protecting Your Online Shopping Rights

Online shopping is full of pitfalls. You need to make sure the business you’re buying from is trading ethically. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) has a good list of guidelines on its website.

There’s more than meets the eye when shopping for new windows to install. Seeing as how there are countless window types, it’s important to figure out the best windows to buy for your home or business. Our team has compiled helpful tips and information into a Window Buyers Guide to reference as you start your window buying process.

Increased Insulating Power

Our Triple Pane windows have a U-Factor (a measure of insulation quality) up to 52% higher than that of dual pane windows. This improvement comes from a combination of the extra pane of glass, multiple cavities that contain insulating ‘blankets’ of Argon gas, and additional glass surfaces on which to apply our Low E coating technology. If you live in a climate that demands more heating or more cooling in your home, consider replacing your windows with Triple Pane insulating power to stop heat flow.

In cooler climates, triple-pane windows keep more of your warmth and energy IN. In warm climates, triple-pane windows keep more of the radiant heat and temperatures OUT. As Nebraskans, we know too well how our weather can go from one extreme to the other so it is comforting to know you will have a window that can hold up in any type of weather.

Enhanced Condensation Resistance

Condensation Resistance Factor (CRF) is a measurement used to highlight a window’s ability to prevent condensation from forming on the glass. Whenever condensation is present, the first thing to look at is the atmospheric conditions, or more simply put, if your home is encouraging condensation. This can come from high humidity levels or a lack of sufficient airflow in the home. These conditions are further magnified by windows that do not provide good insulation. The reason why insufficient windows promote condensation is that the surface of the glass gets cooler as heat escapes.

Highly insulated windows keep the temperature on the surface of the glass warmer and thus are more resistant to condensing the moisture-rich air in the atmosphere of your home. Our triple pane windows enhance the condensation resistance of normal clear glass windows by up to 49%, and can even outperform normal dual pane Low E windows by over 20%. There are many reasons to promote good condensation resistance. Excess moisture can lead to rotted window sills, and even mold and mildew promotion. Triple Pane windows offer the highest CRFs available.
