The first fridge magnets or magnets to be used on a fridge was invented by Sam Hardcastle, by creating a method to mix iron oxide with vinyl which resulted in his magnets having more potential or his magnets held onto the surfaces completely. They were cylindrical in shape after which flexible magnets were developed. As we find distinct north and south poles in conventional magnets, flat fridge magnets reflect magnetization during manufacturing by alternating north and south poles on the refrigerator side.
