University Study on Dry Erase Product Surfaces

Read what a major university found out
about our product during a recent study.

Below is a Testimonial from a major university in Georgia describing how markers and cleaners affected Troy Self-Stick Dry-Erase White Film products.  

Test Findings:

"As for the testing, we used Sanford's EXPO & EXPO2 markers, Foray markers, Boone markers, EXPO cleaner #81803, EXPO2 cleaner #81822 (which had different solvents), [a general purpose cleaner used by night cleaning crews as an EVERYTHING cleaner], isopropyl alcohol, methyl alcohol, and even Sharpie permanent markers.  
Your product passed with flying colors."

Health Issues - Chalk Residue Harms People and Equipment!

The three main arguments
for a change to whiteboards are:

• the negative effects chalk dust may have on electronics and
• increased personal convenience.

Chalk dust particles stay suspended in the atmosphere. Once in the atmosphere, they can be carried by air great distances - into equipment and your lungs!

Reseach Findings:

Chalk Dust Is Harmful to People

According to the Academy of Allergy and Immunology,

"Chalk dust "IS AN IRRITANT THAT CAN TRIGGER AN ASTHMA ATTACK, AND STUDENTS WHO HAVE ALLERGIES TO DUST PARTICLES OR WHO HAVE ASTHMA SHOULD STAY AWAY FROM CHALK BOARDS AND ERASERS."

"The allergy, asthma and immunology academy recognizes chalk dust as being more of a problem for elementary and middle school students with allergies and asthma than for college students." 1

1 From "Chalk it up to experience" , Iowa State Daily 10-21-04

"Common asthma triggers in the school environment:
* Dust mites * Chalk dust * Animals * Strong odors (perfumes, paints, chemicals)"2

2 From "Asthma and the School Child"

"Examples of health problems related to poor air quality are asthma, "sick building syndrome," multiple chemical sensitivity, and hypersensitivity pneumonia. Persons with chronic conditions, e.g., connective tissue disorders, immunosuppression, are at greater risk of respiratory symptoms." 3

3 From "Air Quality Problems - Not Just Chalk Dust" http://www.schoolnurse.com

Listed among the advice to parents of child with nasal allergies is the following warning about chalk dust:

"Ask your child's teacher to seat him or her away from the board to avoid irritation from chalk dust. Chalk dust can irritate your child's sensitive nasal passages."4

4 From Caring for Your Child's Nasal Allergies http://www.rhinocortaqua.com

"Many people may not be aware that teachers who use chalks and dusters as part of their daily teaching routines end up suffering from excessive use of such materials. There are instances in the district which suggest that teachers often end up as sufferers, with their throats and chests being afflicted." 5

5 "Teachers face health risks from chalk dust", Nepal News

And to Electronics!

"Excessive amounts of dust can damage computers, said Mohanish Kalra, senior in electrical engineering and AIT computer service student technician. "I've seen it before. It can be a problem," he said. "The dust makes things dirty and can get into the keyboards."

Kalra said the chalk dust can be a bigger problem in laptops because once it gets into those keyboards, it can affect the motherboard, especially when professors move back and forth from the board to the computer."1

"Blackboards vesus WhiteBoards ... In rooms with electronic gear and computers, use of chalk boards produces chalk dust over time that settles over the circuits, causes overheating, and ruins vulnerable equipment." 6
