Expert Insights: Industrial Safety & Large Scale Compliance

Q: Why is this 2400x1200mm red board critical for large warehouse safety?

A: In a vast warehouse, small notices get missed. The 2.4m width allows you to create a high-impact "Safety Wall" visible from a distance. The red background immediately identifies the area as a critical information point for fire plans, first aid lists, and hazard warnings.

Q: Is this board legal for use in main factory escape routes?

A: Yes. It is engineered to meet Class B fire rating standards (BS EN 13501-1), which is the specific requirement for wall linings and displays in circulation areas and escape routes. This ensures your facility remains compliant with UK fire safety laws.

Q: Can I install this extra-large board myself (DIY)?

A: Yes, but due to the significant 2.4m width and weight, it requires two people to install safely. The board comes with a complete corner fixing kit and is designed for straightforward mounting by a facilities team on any flat industrial wall.

Q: How many notices can I fit on this board?

A: The 2400mm x 1200mm size is huge. You can comfortably display over 32 sheets of A4 paper in a portrait grid layout. This capacity allows for a comprehensive display of Health & Safety Law, Insurance Certificates, Union News, and Shift patterns all in one place.

Q: What are some educational ideas for using this red board?

A: In large schools, this board is ideal for the "Red House" assembly point in the main hall. It offers a massive surface for celebrating student achievements, displaying house mottos, and tracking competition points, all while meeting fire safety codes.

Q: Does this offer good value for money considering the shipping?

A: Absolutely. Shipping 8ft items is very expensive for most suppliers, but we include Free UK Mainland Delivery in the price. Combined with the durability of fire-rated materials and a 2-year guarantee, it offers exceptional long-term value for industrial compliance.

Q: Is it fully fireproof?

A: No material is 100% "fireproof". It is "Fire Resistant" (Class B), meaning it is engineered to resist ignition and slow down flame spread significantly, meeting the strict legal standards for public and industrial escape routes.

Q: Why buy from Cobolt Furniture?

A: With over 50 years of heritage, we are a leading supplier to UK industry and the public sector. We offer Free UK Mainland Delivery, accept Purchase Orders, and provide dedicated account management to ensure your large-scale safety projects succeed.

Product FAQs

Expert Insights: Industrial Safety & Large Scale Compliance

Q: Why is this 2400x1200mm red board critical for large warehouse safety?

A: In a vast warehouse, small notices get missed. The 2.4m width allows you to create a high-impact "Safety Wall" visible from a distance. The red background immediately identifies the area as a critical information point for fire plans, first aid lists, and hazard warnings.

Q: Is this board legal for use in main factory escape routes?

A: Yes. It is engineered to meet Class B fire rating standards (BS EN 13501-1), which is the specific requirement for wall linings and displays in circulation areas and escape routes. This ensures your facility remains compliant with UK fire safety laws.

Q: Can I install this extra-large board myself (DIY)?

A: Yes, but due to the significant 2.4m width and weight, it requires two people to install safely. The board comes with a complete corner fixing kit and is designed for straightforward mounting by a facilities team on any flat industrial wall.

Q: How many notices can I fit on this board?

A: The 2400mm x 1200mm size is huge. You can comfortably display over 32 sheets of A4 paper in a portrait grid layout. This capacity allows for a comprehensive display of Health & Safety Law, Insurance Certificates, Union News, and Shift patterns all in one place.

Q: What are some educational ideas for using this red board?

A: In large schools, this board is ideal for the "Red House" assembly point in the main hall. It offers a massive surface for celebrating student achievements, displaying house mottos, and tracking competition points, all while meeting fire safety codes.

Q: Does this offer good value for money considering the shipping?

A: Absolutely. Shipping 8ft items is very expensive for most suppliers, but we include Free UK Mainland Delivery in the price. Combined with the durability of fire-rated materials and a 2-year guarantee, it offers exceptional long-term value for industrial compliance.

Q: Is it fully fireproof?

A: No material is 100% "fireproof". It is "Fire Resistant" (Class B), meaning it is engineered to resist ignition and slow down flame spread significantly, meeting the strict legal standards for public and industrial escape routes.

Q: Why buy from Cobolt Furniture?

A: With over 50 years of heritage, we are a leading supplier to UK industry and the public sector. We offer Free UK Mainland Delivery, accept Purchase Orders, and provide dedicated account management to ensure your large-scale safety projects succeed.
