FOUNDERS STORY My name is Matthew Klein, I am the Founder and CEO of Magnaboard. As a painting contractor in the early 2000’s, going through the growing pains of establishing my new business, hiring staff and landing large condo and commercial projects, I was dealt a devastating blow during the 2007 housing crisis. The two US banks that were funding the projects went bankrupt. It was a time of profound uncertainty and personal challenge – I lost everything I had been working toward. As I let go of my staff, borrowing to make sure they were paid out, I wondered what I was going to do next. I found myself working back on the tools, instead of training and managing projects. While I was crawling around mudding the holes from the nails in the baseboards and then sanding the mud after it dried, I kept kneeling on the exposed nails of the tack strips, making my knees bleed. In that bleak moment, through my under breath complaining and just down right feeling sorry for myself, I had this thought that suddenly transformed into a catalyst of innovation and change. Why am I doing this? Why is anybody? Why are we taking perfectly good wood and wrecking it, spending all this time, energy, money, and labor? What if there was a better way to install all this trimboard without all this effort ,
“What IF we could use Magnets?”
That moment sparked the birth of Magnaboard—an idea that took a decade of dedicated research, development, and the securing of patents across the US, Canada, and Europe. Today, I am thrilled to announce the launch of Magnaboard, a product entirely made in the USA. Magnaboard isn’t just about revolutionizing the construction industry; it’s about making life easier for contractors, builders, painters, finishers, property managers, and DIY enthusiasts. It’s about offering smaller manufacturers the chance to enhance their profitability by offering a magnetic hidden fastening system instead of just their baseboards. We are helping to create less labor, less mess and give back more time to the men and women working hard to build beautiful homes for all of us while making it more profitable for everyone involved, even saving money for the homeowner. At the core of Magnaboard’s vision is: to get our hardworking contractors home for a beer with friends and family a little earlier and with a little less pain, or if you were like me, a lot less bloody knees. We don’t just maintain the highest standards of finishing, we have improved on it and made it less expensive by exchanging high cost messy labor with a product that simply makes the job easier. I invite you to join us on this journey as we aim to transform the industry, one board at a time. Warm regards, Matthew Klein, Founder and CEO, Magnaboard

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
for green-initiative products, Magnaboard has created a sustainable, cost-effective, profitable product that does not compete with the industry, it changes it! By turning destructive, messy, high-cost labour into new innovative, easy-to-use, time saving products.
How does the current industry affect the world? Currently the industry wastes millions of miles of painters tape which ends up in the landfill, just to get a straight line on the wall.

Due to North American MDF allocation and increasing labor costs mixed with a consumer demand
A single US tape factory produces an estimated 12 million miles of tape every year. This is enough tape to go to the Moon and back 25 TIMES or to wrap around the earth 220 TIMES. If you unraveled a roll of tape non stop, 24 hours a day, every day for 5 years, you would have unrolled the amount of tape that’s produced in 1 year! 35
