Airboard Ironing Board

Airboard Ironing Board is an innovative home appliance that revolutionizes the traditional ironing experience through its integration of advanced air-flow technology and ergonomic design principles. This sophisticated ironing board features a dual-function integrated fan system that enables both blowing and vacuum capabilities, offering unprecedented control over fabric handling during the ironing process. The blowing function creates an air cushion between the fabric and board surface, particularly beneficial for delicate materials like silk and multi-layered garments, preventing unwanted creasing and marking on underlying layers. Conversely, the vacuum function secures fabrics firmly to the board while simultaneously extracting excess steam from the environment. Constructed with premium materials, including a 1mm aluminum sheet top board and recyclable thermoplastic components, the design emphasizes both durability and environmental consciousness. The board's height can be adjusted from 65 to 100 centimeters through an innovative single-hand operation mechanism, featuring aesthetic and functional latches on both sides for automatic elevation. Additional practical features include an integrated plug system with a two-meter cord and automatic cord winder, slip-proof base, and a specialized iron rest made of PA30GF thermoplastic material with fireproof silicon strips. This award-winning design, recognized with an A' Design Award in the Home Appliances category, represents a significant advancement in home ironing technology, combining professional-grade functionality with domestic practicality. The development process spanned over a decade of research, culminating in a product that addresses the fundamental challenges of home ironing while offering solutions for both everyday and specialized garment care needs.
