MagChalk™ Matt Black Ferrous Rolls

Thinking of creating a magnetic chalkboard - no problem.

The MagChalk brand is MagScapes class-leading ferrous chalkboard wallcovering. It is easy to configure, and comes in a matt black finish for chalks and chalk pens. It has a ferrous backing that scores 4/5 for magnet receptivity so all magnets will also work on the surface. And for peace of mind, MagWrite is fire-resistant and comes with a 10yr warranty.

It comes in handy rolls at 120cm wide by 6m lengths. If you know the wall size - check how much you need.

All MagScapes wallcoverings are easy to install for a professional decorator. Please refer to MagChalk: User and Decorator Guide. Our recommended ready-mixed adhesives;

MagFix adhesive for absorbent wall surfaces
MagVOV adhesive for non-absorbent wall surfaces

The Original Magnetic Chalkboard Wall Surface for Offices, Classrooms & Creative Spaces

There is something enduringly powerful about chalk on a dark surface. It is tactile, expressive, and immediate - the natural choice for visual thinkers, educators, and creative teams. But traditional chalkboards have always had limits: fixed sizes, heavy frames, and walls left mostly unused. MagChalk™ by MagScapes removes every one of those limits. It is a premium magnetic chalkboard wallpaper that transforms any flat wall into a seamless, full-surface chalkboard wall - one that accepts chalk, chalk pens, and magnets all at once, without a frame in sight.
Whether you're designing an inspiring creative workspace, a dynamic learning environment, or a statement feature wall for a café, studio, or retail space, MagChalk is the professional-grade solution that makes it possible.

What Is MagChalk?

MagChalk™ is a class-leading ferrous chalkboard wallcovering that combines two high-performing functions in one elegant product. The matt black surface laminate accepts traditional chalks and chalk pens with the rich, satisfying contrast that makes content genuinely easy to read from a distance. Beneath that surface is a ferrous backing layer that delivers a magnet receptivity rating of 4 out of 5 - equivalent to a high-quality fridge door - meaning every type of magnet holds securely on the same surface you're writing on.
The result is a genuinely multi-purpose magnetic surface: write up lesson plans, pin student work, display printed resources, or map out a project timeline - all on one uninterrupted expanse of wall. No juggling between a chalkboard and a separate pinboard. No hunting for the right magnet for the right surface. Everything happens in one place.
MagChalk is available in rolls of 120cm wide by 3m and 6m, making it scalable from a small accent wall to a full classroom or office installation. The 120cm width is optimised to minimise visible seams on standard-height walls, giving the kind of seamless, designed finish that specifiers and interior designers expect.

Built for Commercial Use

MagChalk is engineered for environments that see daily, intensive use. The hard-wearing matt laminate surface is designed to withstand repeated writing and erasing without deteriorating, ghosting, or losing its deep black finish. Unlike chalkboard paint — which requires multiple coats, lengthy cure times, and careful surface preparation to achieve a consistent result - MagChalk installs in a single professional session and is ready to perform from day one.
The non-reflective surface is particularly well suited to rooms with natural light, overhead fixtures, or windows at the side of a wall. Glare on a writing surface is a significant usability problem in real working and learning environments; MagChalk's matt laminate eliminates it entirely, ensuring content remains clearly legible from every viewing angle throughout the day.
With a 10-year product warranty backed by MagScapes' manufacturing standards, MagChalk is a long-term investment in the surfaces of your space - not a short-term fix. Its low-maintenance credentials mean the ongoing cost of ownership is minimal: a damp cloth for chalk, a spray cleaner and microfibre for chalk pens, and the surface is ready to go again.

Designed to Boost Productivity and Collaboration

The best collaboration spaces are designed around the way people actually think and work. Ideas don't fit neatly into a 90cm × 60cm whiteboard panel. Teams need unlimited writing space to map processes, sketch concepts, build project plans, and iterate in real time. A wall covered in MagChalk gives them exactly that - a continuous, writable wall that extends the working surface from corner to corner, floor to ceiling if needed.
In corporate and office environments, MagChalk creates meeting rooms and open-plan zones that genuinely support creative thinking. Agile teams can divide the wall into swim lanes for sprint planning, product teams can sketch user journeys, and leadership groups can map strategic priorities - all in chalk, easily erased and redrawn as thinking evolves. The magnetic function adds another dimension: attach printed data, reference cards, or sticky-backed documents directly to the writing surface, keeping everything in one visual field.
For education and training, MagChalk is a transformative classroom surface. Teachers gain a full-wall chalkboard that makes lesson delivery more dynamic, more visual, and more engaging for students. The deep contrast of white chalk on matt black is easier on the eye than digital screens in bright rooms, and the tactile quality of writing by hand is shown to support learning and retention. Training centres, lecture halls, language schools, and tutoring studios all benefit from the kind of dynamic learning environment that MagChalk enables.

The Aesthetic Edge: Design-Led Surface for Inspiring Spaces

MagChalk does something most functional wallcoverings don't: it looks genuinely considered. The deep matt black finish integrates beautifully into designed interiors - the kind of spaces where functionality and aesthetics are equally important. Creative agencies, architecture studios, boutique hospitality venues, co-working spaces, and retail environments have all discovered that MagChalk adds character and purpose simultaneously.
A chalkboard wall in a café or restaurant becomes a live menu, an events board, and a piece of interior design all at once. In a co-working or collaborative workspace, it gives members a natural focus point for impromptu meetings and visual thinking. In a school corridor or learning hub, it becomes an engaging surface that invites participation and creative expression rather than passive observation.
Unlike traditional rigid chalkboard panels, MagChalk wraps your wall as a continuous material, following the room's natural geometry without gaps, edges, or visible fixtures. The result is immersive in a way that no framed panel can match.

Safe, Certified, and Eco-Friendly

MagChalk carries the EuroClass C-s1, d0 fire rating, confirming full compliance with commercial fire safety standards across the UK and Europe. This certification makes it entirely suitable for educational buildings, healthcare settings, blue-light environments, and commercial fit-outs where fire safety documentation is a mandatory part of the specification process.
Its low-VOC formulation and no-odour properties mean MagChalk can be installed in occupied buildings with minimal disruption. Schools can be fitted over a weekend without concern for fume exposure. Healthcare facilities and care homes can be upgraded without vacating wards. Office fit-outs can proceed without triggering extended ventilation requirements.
MagChalk is also safe for use in play areas - a critical credential for nurseries, primary schools, children's hospitals, and family-friendly retail and hospitality spaces. And with its eco-friendly materials profile, it sits comfortably within sustainability-conscious specifications, supporting projects seeking BREEAM credits or other environmental benchmarks.

Easy Application for Professional Decorators

MagChalk is installed using the paste-the-wall method - adhesive is applied to the prepared wall surface, and the wallcovering is positioned and smoothed into place. This approach gives professional decorators precise control over alignment and avoids the adhesive-on-material handling challenges that complicate some wallcovering products.
MagScapes recommend two ready-mixed adhesives to suit different substrates: MagFix for absorbent wall surfaces, and MagVOV for non-absorbent surfaces. A dedicated MagChalk User and Decorator Guide is available to download, providing detailed instructions on surface preparation, application technique, and finishing.
The 120cm roll width is engineered to work efficiently with standard room heights, minimising the number of joins and making the installation process straightforward for experienced decorators. Once installed and cured, MagChalk requires no further treatment or conditioning - it is ready to write on immediately.
To complete the installation, WriteTrim decorative edge trims are available to frame the MagChalk surface with a clean, professional finish. Chalk, chalk pens, cleaning sprays, and microfibre cloths are all available in the MagScapes Accessories range.

Proven Across Industries

Education and Training: MagChalk has been installed in primary and secondary classrooms, university seminar rooms, specialist tutoring centres, and professional training facilities. It meets the specific demands of these environments — non-toxic, fire-safe, durable, and visually effective - while creating the kind of dynamic learning environments that modern education requires.
Corporate and Creative Offices: Agencies, studios, tech companies, and consultancies use MagChalk to build collaborative workspaces that reflect their culture and support their working methods. A full chalkboard wall is a powerful signal that ideas are welcome here - and the magnetic function means documents, mood boards, and reference materials can be pinned directly to the creative surface.
Retail and Hospitality: Cafés, restaurants, bars, boutiques, and experiential retail spaces use MagChalk to create living surfaces that evolve with their brand. Menus, offers, events, and messages can be updated daily, keeping the environment fresh and engaging for customers.
Healthcare and Blue Light: MagChalk's fire certification, low-VOC credentials, and easy-clean surface make it suitable for NHS facilities, care settings, therapeutic environments, and operational blue-light spaces where both safety and functionality are paramount.
Home and Play: Safe for use in children's rooms, playrooms, and nurseries, MagChalk brings the joy of creative expression home - giving children a dedicated, wall-sized canvas that also holds magnets for letters, numbers, and learning games.

Why MagChalk Outperforms Chalkboard Paint

Super magnetic chalkboard paint and standard blackboard paint require significant preparation, multiple application coats, extended cure times, and careful technique to achieve an even finish - and even then, the magnetic performance of paint-based solutions is typically limited. MagChalk's 0.6mm ferrous backing delivers consistent 4/5 magnetic receptivity across the full surface, regardless of the applicator's skill level, the wall's substrate, or the environmental conditions during installation.
The surface quality is also fundamentally different. MagChalk's factory-laminated matt finish is precisely engineered and quality-controlled, giving a consistent writing experience and deep black colour from the first stroke. Paint-applied chalkboard surfaces can vary in texture, absorbency, and colour, making even erasing unpredictable. MagChalk removes that variable entirely.
