Magnets were designed for the space industry by a creator called Sam Hardcastle. These magnets were initially meant to be used for letters and numbers on large-scale tracking charts. Somehow, the needs for magnets grew for different purposes. So new techniques for moulding them were developed, and Hardcastle began producing magnets for the souvenir industry. And they very soon converted into a collector’s items.
Today, magnets are mostly used as everyday household items that allow for unique decorating possibilities on any unused metal space. Instead of beautifying just your fridge with your photos prints, you can now have your wanted images created into photo magnets. Also, enterprises can create customized promotional magnets for marketing purposes to keep their brand on top of the mind of their consumers and clients.
