Product Overview: The Executive Wall Solution

The Cobolt 2400x1200mm Grey Fire Resistant Noticeboard is the definitive choice for design-led facility management. When equipping large corporate spaces, standard boards can look domestic and cluttered. This 2.4-metre wide unit (8ft) offers a minimalist, architectural aesthetic that functions as both a communication tool and a significant acoustic damper. The Class B fire rating ensures that you can install these massive grey surfaces in corridors and atriums without compromising building safety.

Certified Fire Safety

  • Class B Certification: Tested to BS EN 13501-1 (Class B), this board is approved for wall linings in high-risk circulation spaces. It allows you to maintain a high-end corporate look in main thoroughfares without violating the Fire Safety Order.
  • Surface Spread of Flame: For a board of this magnitude, resistance to flame spread is vital. The composite construction is engineered to prevent rapid ignition, ensuring that the wall lining does not accelerate fire growth in an emergency.
  • Audit Compliance: Large non-rated boards are a major liability. This certified unit provides a legal, safe solution for displaying large-scale information in critical evacuation routes.

Expansive Corporate Utility

  • Seamless Banking: The grey felt wraps completely around the edges. You can butt these huge 2.4m boards end-to-end to create a "ribbon" of display space that spans an entire boardroom wall, perfect for immersive presentations.
  • Massive Capacity: With 2.88m² of usable space, this board easily holds oversize architectural blueprints (A0), extensive flowcharts, or 24+ A4 sheets. The neutral background ensures the content remains the focal point.
  • Acoustic Function: In open-plan offices with hard surfaces (glass/concrete), this large felt board absorbs sound waves, helping to reduce ambient noise and improve speech intelligibility.

The Cobolt Standard

  • Free UK Mainland Delivery: Shipping 8ft boards requires specialist freight logistics which can be costly. We include this in the price to provide a transparent, fixed cost for your office fit-out budget.
  • British Manufacturing: Manufactured in the UK to rigorous standards, ensuring that these large panels remain flat and true, and that the fire rating is genuine for high-traffic corporate use.
  • Compliance Assurance: We provide equipment that meets the specific demands of UK Building Regulations (Approved Document B), giving you peace of mind during insurance audits.
  • Secure Anchoring: Supplied with a heavy-duty through-fixing kit, ensuring this massive board sits flush against the wall and cannot be accidentally dislodged or tampered with.

Where is this 2400x1200mm Board specified?

The 2400mm x 1200mm Grey Fire Resistant Board is preferred for environments requiring a neutral, professional look on a grand scale. It is heavily utilised in:

  • Architectural Practices: Creating floor-to-ceiling "pin-up" walls for reviewing full-scale plans and material samples.
  • University Lecture Halls: Providing durable, acoustic-friendly notice walls in busy concourses.
  • Agile Offices: Used as "Kanban" walls for project management teams needing extensive visualization space.

Expert Advice for Corporate Buyers

A: It is approximately 8ft x 4ft. The precise metric dimensions are 2400mm (width) x 1200mm (height).

Q: Why choose the Grey version?

Product FAQs

Expert Advice for Corporate Buyers

Q: Is this 2400x1200mm board difficult to install?

A: It requires two people. Due to the 8ft length and weight, you will need two people to position and fix it safely. However, the through-fixing method itself is straightforward.

Q: Is this board suitable for open-plan offices?

A: Yes, it is ideal. It is tested to BS EN 13501-1 Class B, ensuring full compliance for wall linings in circulation spaces, and its large felt surface helps dampen office noise.

Q: What are the dimensions in feet?

A: It is approximately 8ft x 4ft. The precise metric dimensions are 2400mm (width) x 1200mm (height).

Q: Why choose the Grey version?

A: Grey offers a neutral, modern aesthetic. It is the preferred choice for architects as it allows documents to stand out without the board clashing with corporate branding or interior design.

Q: Is delivery expensive for this size?

A: No, delivery is free. Despite the specialist logistics required for 8ft boards, we cover the delivery cost to UK Mainland addresses.

Q: Do I need special fixings to install it?

A: No, a heavy-duty fixing kit is included. This kit includes appropriate screws and plugs for solid walls to ensure the large board is anchored securely.

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, while pins can be used for agile project work.

Q: Is the whole board fire rated?

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