Product FAQs

Product Overview: The Square Compliance Solution

The Cobolt 1200x1200mm Fire Resistant Noticeboard is the facility manager's choice for covering large wall sections safely. While standard rectangular boards fit linear spaces, this Square Format is designed for open-plan areas, stairwell landings, and atriums. The Class B fire rating ensures that even with this larger surface area, your building remains fully compliant with fire regulations for wall linings.

Certified Fire Safety

  • Class B Certification: Tested to BS EN 13501-1 (Class B), this board is approved for use in circulation spaces where fire load must be controlled. It allows you to create large display surfaces in corridors without increasing the risk of flame spread.
  • Composite Safety: The fire retardancy is engineered into the entire product—both the dense core and the fabric face. This composite structure ensures the board will self-extinguish, a critical requirement for public building insurance.
  • Escape Route Ready: Unlike non-rated noticeboards which are prohibited in fire exits, this certified unit gives you the legal confidence to display notices in your building's most critical evacuation routes.

Modular Tiling Potential

  • Grid Configuration: The 1200mm square shape is ideal for tiling. You can mount four boards in a 2x2 grid to create a massive 2.4m x 2.4m display wall that looks like a single custom installation.
  • Frameless Aesthetic: The blue felt wraps completely around the edges, eliminating the visual interruption of aluminium frames. This is essential when banking boards together to create a seamless "feature wall."
  • Edge-to-Edge Pinning: With no outer rim, the entire 1.44m² surface is usable. This is particularly useful for displaying large architectural plans or oversized artwork that extends to the perimeter.

The Cobolt Standard

  • Free UK Mainland Delivery: We cover the shipping costs on these large-format boards, ensuring you have a simple, transparent price for your project budget with no surprises.
  • Compliance Guarantee: We supply products that are rigorously tested to UK standards, ensuring that your installation will pass Fire Officer inspections without issue.
  • British Craftsmanship: Manufactured in the UK using high-grade materials, our boards offer superior finish and longevity compared to imported alternatives.
  • Secure Anchoring: Each board comes with a dedicated through-fixing kit, ensuring it is anchored flush to the wall to prevent movement or accidental dislodging in busy areas.

Where is this Blue Fire Resistant Board specified?

The 1200mm x 1200mm Blue Fire Resistant Board is preferred for large-scale display requirements. It is heavily utilised in:

  • University Atriums: Tiling multiple boards to create a massive "Student Union" notice wall.
  • School Halls: Creating large display zones for artwork or house points in assembly areas.
  • Open Plan Offices: Using the large square surface for agile workflow planning or "Kanban" boards.
  • Public Corridors: Filling wider wall spaces between doors with a single, compliant unit.

Key Features

  • Large Square Format – 1200mm x 1200mm (4ft x 4ft) offers significant display capacity.
  • Fire Rated Class B – Legally compliant for use in escape routes and circulation zones.
  • Frameless Design – Wrapped felt edges allow for seamless grid tiling.
  • Royal Blue Felt – A smart, professional colour that resists showing dirt.
  • Pin & Staple Friendly – High-density core holds items securely via pins or staples.
  • Secure Through-Fixing – Mounts flush to the wall for a neat, tamper-resistant finish.
  • Acoustic Absorption – The large surface area acts as an effective sound dampener.
  • British Standard Tested – Certified to BS EN 13501-1.

Expert Advice for Large Displays

Q: Is this 1200x1200mm board suitable for schools?

A: Yes, it is fully compliant. It is tested to BS EN 13501-1 Class B, which meets the UK fire safety regulations for wall linings in educational corridors and assembly halls.

Q: Can I tile multiple boards together?

A: Yes, the square format is perfect for tiling. The frameless edges allow you to butt boards together in a grid (e.g., 2x2) to create a massive, seamless display wall.

Q: What are the dimensions in feet?

A: It is approximately 4ft x 4ft. The precise metric dimensions are 1200mm x 1200mm, offering a symmetrical display area.

Q: How secure is the fixing method?

A: It is very secure. The board uses a through-fixing system where screws go directly through the face of the board into the wall, preventing it from being lifted off like a hanging frame.

Q: Is the installation tamper-proof?

A: Yes, largely. Because the fixings are through the board, you need a screwdriver to remove it. This discourages casual vandalism or removal by students.

Q: Do I need special fixings to install it?

A: No, a standard wall fixing kit is included. This kit typically includes screws and wall plugs suitable for solid walls, along with washers or caps for a neat finish.

Q: Can I use staples as well as pins?

A: Yes, the core accepts both. The high-density core holds staples firmly, making it a good choice for permanent displays that shouldn't be easily removed by passersby.

Q: Is the whole board fire rated?

A: Yes, it is a composite rating. Both the core board and the blue fabric are treated and tested together to ensure the complete unit achieves the Class B certification.

Product FAQs

Expert Advice for Large Displays

Q: Is this 1200x1200mm board suitable for schools?

A: Yes, it is fully compliant. It is tested to BS EN 13501-1 Class B, which meets the UK fire safety regulations for wall linings in educational corridors and assembly halls.

Q: Can I tile multiple boards together?

A: Yes, the square format is perfect for tiling. The frameless edges allow you to butt boards together in a grid (e.g., 2x2) to create a massive, seamless display wall.

Q: What are the dimensions in feet?

A: It is approximately 4ft x 4ft. The precise metric dimensions are 1200mm x 1200mm, offering a symmetrical display area.

Q: How secure is the fixing method?

A: It is very secure. The board uses a through-fixing system where screws go directly through the face of the board into the wall, preventing it from being lifted off like a hanging frame.

Q: Is the installation tamper-proof?

A: Yes, largely. Because the fixings are through the board, you need a screwdriver to remove it. This discourages casual vandalism or removal by students.

Q: Do I need special fixings to install it?

A: No, a standard wall fixing kit is included. This kit typically includes screws and wall plugs suitable for solid walls, along with washers or caps for a neat finish.

Q: Can I use staples as well as pins?

A: Yes, the core accepts both. The high-density core holds staples firmly, making it a good choice for permanent displays that shouldn't be easily removed by passersby.

Q: Is the whole board fire rated?

A: Yes, it is a composite rating. Both the core board and the blue fabric are treated and tested together to ensure the complete unit achieves the Class B certification.
