MACEDON, N.Y., Aug. 29, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Magnatag(r) Visible Systems, the leader in Magnetic WhiteBoard and Information Display Systems for the workplace, has introduced its latest workplace solution product, the RotoCube(r) Rotating Kiosk Bulletin Tower. The free-standing rotating four-sided organizational system allows large amounts of information to be displayed, viewed and processed virtually anywhere in an office, store, church, factory or business.
"For the last 39 years Magnatag(r) has developed an extensive line of innovative, high quality task oriented magnetic printed white board kits, though their use has been limited to our customer's walls. Those walls have now come down," said Wally Krapf, CEO of Magnatag. "These free-standing RotoCube(r) Bulletin Towers can be placed right in the traffic stream where everyone can access it without crowding. Our customers tell us it is the first place they display any information that must be seen by employees or customers. People stop for a RotoCube."
The inspiration for the RotoCube(r) came from, of all places, the street corner. Wally Krapf had seen research that showed people most often stopped to chat right in the middle of the busiest traffic stream on the sidewalk. "Knowing that, why wouldn't they stop to view important information in the busy traffic areas of the workplace too?"
Customers have already begun to realize the benefits of this innovative organizational display system:
-- "It's a real space-saver, located in our waiting area, it has
reduced the volume of some of the more common questions and
people are better informed when they get to the window" --

-- "It's our Silent Salesperson," said one auto dealer from Iowa.
"Many customers come into our auto dealership unsure of their
credit-worthiness. So we post all the bank and financing
institutions we deal with on our RotoCube(r) Bulletin Tower right
in our reception area where they can look over all the options
in a low pressure setting. When they see how many banks we deal
with, they are more comfortable with our dealership. I'm certain
this turns a lot of lookers into buyers."
-- "People won't look at a board if they cannot get to it easily. We
post each side of the RotoCube(r) with safety/housekeeping,
productivity, quality and continuous improvement objectives.
Because it is free standing we can move it to the best location
within the work cell where it can be viewed from all
directions." -- Production Supervisor from an auto parts
manufacturer in Battle Creek, MI.
-- "We used to put data on the walls but that did not work well. Now
we post health and safety, productivity, quality and Kaizen
information on RotoCubes(r) right in the work cells." --

The RotoCube's four panels contain 24 square feet of display space, as much as a 4' x 6' white board. The 78-inch high, 19" square RotoCube(r) Bulletin Tower silently turns with a finger-touch in either direction in a 27-inch circle (Patents pending). RotoCube(r) can be ordered with any of 13 different panels, including magnetic white boards, plain, or printed 5-day, 7-day or monthly calendars, cork, fabric, photo, card and file folder holders or custom-printed steel whiteboards All RotoCube's(r) are topped off with a customizable marquee that allows printed, replaceable titles for each of the four sides. Customers can build and order their own RotoCube(r) online at the RotoCube(r) Web site at www.magnatag.com/rotocube.
The RotoCube(r) Bulletin Tower is also ideal for churches, hospitals, schools and any place where large amounts of important information must be seen by many people while reducing the crowding that can result from a wall-mounted system.
