Marker boards are made from several materials, including steel, aluminum, MDF (medium-density fiberboard), polypropylene, ABS, and other plastics.
Most marker boards are designed for wall mounting and commonly include mounting hardware or hanging strips. Some models advertise no-drill mounting systems for easier installation, while others provide standard screws and anchors for a more permanent fit.
Marker boards are commonly sold as single-board packages and in multi-packs; the data shows examples sold as either 1 or 3 boards per package.
Several listings state that included marker ink conforms to the ASTM D4236 safety standard.
Light-up drawing boards are typically LED-based kits with multiple light effects, gel markers, a removable tracing panel, and battery operation. Regular marker boards are magnetic dry-erase surfaces intended for wall mounting and usually include standard dry-erase markers and magnets.
