Bambook was created in 2014 initially as a school project, where after numerous brainstorms and meetings, the idea for a whiteboard notebook was born. This product formed the base of our mission: bringing simplicity and sustainability to the workplace.
We believe that we need a revolution in the way we work - we are bringing sustainability and ease of use to the workplace. Throughout the years the notebook evolved into a sturdier, more sustainable product. All the pages of the notebook are erasable just like a whiteboard and with the Bambook app you can easily scan your pages, share, and erase them after. Make a lasting impression and/or move towards a paperless office - we work together with you in designing our products to suit your corporate identity and adjust them to complement your style of working.
