Product Information
Full details
This premium flipchart pad is designed for professionals and students who need a structured surface for presentations, planning, or detailed drawings. Its key benefit is the high-quality, bleed-proof paper with a 25mm grid that ensures neatness and accuracy. A potential caveat is that it's specifically gridded, which may not suit freehand sketching if precise lines are not desired.

FAQs
What is the paper weight of this flipchart pad?
The paper weight is 70gsm, which is considered a good quality for bleed-proof flipchart paper.
What are the dimensions of the flipchart pad?
The flipchart pad is A1 size.
Can I use any type of pen or marker on this pad?
It is suitable for most pens and markers, including dry-erase markers, ballpoint pens, gel pens, and pencils. It is designed to be bleed-proof for common markers.
What is the purpose of the grid on the paper?
The 25mm x 25mm grid is printed to help users create neat graphs, charts, and to ensure handwriting or drawings are well-aligned and consistently spaced.
How do I detach a page from the pad?
Each page is perforated at the top, allowing you to tear it off cleanly along the perforation line.
Is this flipchart pad suitable for heavy paint application?
No, this pad is designed for writing and drawing with pens and markers. Heavy wet media like paints are not recommended as they may still bleed through or damage the paper.
How should I store the flipchart pad?
Store the pad in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight. Keeping it flat will help maintain the condition of the pages.
Troubleshooting
Pages not tearing cleanly
Ensure you are tearing the page straight along the perforation line. If the perforation seems weak, fold the page slightly back before tearing.
Marker bleeding through pages
While the paper is bleed-proof for most standard markers, very wet or heavily pigmented markers might show some ghosting. Consider using lighter pressure or switching to a different type of marker for critical sections. A backing sheet could be placed behind the current page if extreme bleed-through is a concern.
Grid lines not straight
The grid is printed with precision. If you perceive crooked lines, this may be an optical illusion or related to the surface the paper is on. Ensure the flipchart easel is stable and level.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Bi-Office Flipchart Pad is designed to be used with standard flipchart easels. Simply place the pad onto the easel's holder, ensuring it is secure. The top binding is designed to rest comfortably on the easel's bar.
Compatibility: This flipchart pad is compatible with most standard flipchart easels. It works best with dry-erase markers, ballpoint pens, gel pens, and pencils. While the paper is bleed-proof for most common markers, very heavy or wet-based markers may still show some ghosting. It is not designed for use with wet paints or heavy inks.
Care: Store the flipchart pad in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent paper degradation. Keep the pad flat to maintain the integrity of the pages and the grid. If pages become dusty, a gentle wipe with a dry cloth is recommended. Avoid moisture.
