Whiteboards & Boards — Expert Answer
What is a tackable wall surface and how is it different from a corkboard?
A tackable surface is a fabric-covered wall panel that accepts pushpins and tacks — pins go in cleanly and the surface self-heals after pin removal, unlike cork which can crumble over time. Tackable panels are available as individual tiles, full-wall systems, and wainscot applications. Commercial fabric-tackable wall panels also provide acoustic absorption. Corkboards are a subset of tackable surfaces — cork is a natural material that is less durable and more prone to crumbling than synthetic tackable fabric.
