Product Overview: The High-Visibility Authority
The Cobolt Red 8-Panel Floorstanding Kit is the facility manager's tool for high-priority communication on a large scale. At 2.4 metres wide, it creates a dominant visual wall. While neutral boards blend in, the Signal Red fabric is designed to stand out, making it the definitive choice for Major Safety Training Days, Voting Stations, or establishing a Temporary Incident Control Point within a large hall or warehouse.
Critical Communication
- Visual Magnetism: In a large, busy venue like a warehouse or campus hall, getting people to stop and read notices is difficult. The vibrant red finish acts as a natural "Stop" signal, drawing foot traffic to the board to read urgent updates, safety maps, or union announcements.
- Expanded 8-Panel Layout: Featuring six main panels (900x600mm) and two header panels, this unit offers significantly more surface area than standard kits. This is crucial for displaying complex evacuation routes or multi-stage safety procedures side-by-side.
- Zoning & Screening: The 2400mm width allows you to effectively partition off specific "Hazard Zones" or create a substantial backdrop for a safety demonstration. The zig-zag stability means it can be placed in the middle of a room to guide pedestrian flow.
Rapid Infrastructure
- Tool-Free Deployment: When a safety briefing needs to happen immediately, you cannot waste time with screws or tools. The pre-hinged frame unfolds and snaps together in minutes, allowing a single Safety Officer to set up a professional presentation area instantly.
- Velcro & Pin Compatible: The loop nylon surface accepts both fastening methods. Use Velcro for laminates that change frequently, or pins for securing multi-layered safety diagrams permanently.
- Dual Header Panels: The kit includes two clip-on header boards. These are essential for categorizing the information displayed, such as "First Aid Point," "Fire Warden Info," or "Campaign HQ," ensuring visibility above head height.

Where is this Red 8-Panel Screen specified?
The 2400mm x 2050mm Red Folding Kit is the standard for environments requiring high visibility and urgency. It is heavily utilised in:
- Health & Safety Training: Creating a large focal point for First Aid courses or Fire Marshal briefings in open-plan offices.
- University Student Unions: Used during elections and campaigns where the colour red represents specific societies or general urgency.
- Emergency Planning Centres: Rapidly deployed to display detailed maps and protocols during facility drills or incidents.
- Trade Union Meetings: Serving as the primary backdrop for voting information and member updates in large assembly halls.
Key Features
- Expansive Dimensions – Stands 2050mm High x 2400mm Wide (approx. 6.7ft x 7.8ft) for maximum presence.
- 8-Panel Configuration – Consists of 6 x Main Body Panels and 2 x Header Panels for structured content layout.
- 360° Precision Hinges – Allows panels to be angled in any direction (Zig-Zag, U-Shape, or L-Shape) for absolute stability without feet.
- Signal Red Loop Nylon – A vibrant, attention-grabbing hue that accepts Velcro coins and pins securely.
- Double-Sided Finish – Upholstered on both sides to allow for dual-direction traffic flow or separating "Alert" vs "Detail" messaging.
- Anodised Aluminium Frame – Robust profile provides structural rigidity while remaining surprisingly lightweight (13.35kg total).
- Tool-Free Assembly – Top panels clip securely into the bottom panels using a simple push-fit system.
- Two Dedicated Headers – Includes two 250mm x 600mm header panels for high-level signage or warning titles.
- Fire Safety Compliant – Fabric tested to BS 5852 to meet strict public building safety codes.
- Protective Carry Bag – Heavy-duty nylon bag included to protect the fabric during storage.

- Institutional Reliability: Unlike lightweight retail displays, our equipment is built to withstand the rigours of being moved between lecture halls, storage rooms, and event venues daily.
Engineered for Infrastructure. Designed for Compliance.
- Fire Resistance Certification: This unit is rigorously tested to BS 5852 (British Standard for flammability). This is non-negotiable for furniture used in High Hazard areas or Fire Safety Training zones, ensuring your briefing equipment complies with site regulations.
- OHS Friendly Portability: Weighing just 13.35kg despite its massive size, this kit splits into manageable sections. The included heavy-duty carry bag with shoulder strap ensures it can be transported by car or on foot between buildings without risk of strain.
- Trip-Free Stability: Unlike screens that rely on protruding flat steel feet (which can be a trip hazard during emergency drills), this unit utilises a self-supporting zig-zag or curved configuration. This ensures stability without encroaching on evacuation routes.
- Durable & Vivid: The anodised aluminium frame is resistant to corrosion. The Signal Red loop nylon is colour-fast and durable, ensuring it maintains its high-visibility impact even after repeated use in bright environments.
- We offer a 1-year manufacturer's guarantee covering structural integrity and hinge mechanisms.
The 2400x2050mm Red 8-Panel Kit is the professional standard for high-visibility communication. These specifications detail the compliance-ready build and dimensions for facility integration.
Please note: Dimensions are approximate including the frame. Stability relies on angling the panels; do not deploy in a completely straight line without additional support.

Expert Advice for Facility Managers
Q: Why choose Red fabric over Neutral colours?
A: Red is chosen for impact. In Facility Management, it is used to signify "Important," "Danger," or "Action Required." It draws the eye from across a large hall, making it perfect for safety briefings or urgent union updates where neutral boards might be ignored.
Q: How wide is the 8-panel version?
A: It is 2400mm (2.4 metres) wide when fully extended, offering significantly more capacity than standard 1800mm boards. This is ideal for large-scale incidents or exhibitions.
Q: Are the header panels removable?
A: Yes. The two header panels (250mm high) are detachable. You can use the display with or without them depending on your signage needs.
Q: Is the fabric fire retardant?
A: Yes, the loop nylon fabric is tested to BS 5852 standards. This is critical for compliance when using temporary furniture in public buildings, schools, and escape routes.
Q: Can I use Velcro or do I need pins?
A: You can use both. The "Loop Nylon" surface grabs onto standard Velcro coins/tape securely. However, the core board is also suitable for pins if you need to mount heavier items like laminated safety maps.
Q: Does it need assembly tools?
A: No tools are required. The panels are pre-hinged. You simply remove it from the bag, unfold the sections, and clip the top tier to the bottom tier. Setup typically takes 3-5 minutes.
Q: Can I buy these via Purchase Order for a Council/University?
A: Yes. We regularly process Purchase Orders for public sector bodies. Please contact our account management team to arrange this.
