Product Overview: The High-Visibility Safety Hub
The Cobolt 1200x1200mm Red Fire Resistant Noticeboard is the safety officer's ultimate tool for centralization. In large facilities, scattered safety notices can be ignored. This Large Square Format creates a focal point for compliance. The Signal Red finish acts as a visual "Stop" sign, ensuring that Fire Marshal lists and emergency protocols are noticed, read, and obeyed, all whilst maintaining Class B compliance for corridor walls.
Certified Fire Safety
- Class B Certification: Tested to BS EN 13501-1 (Class B), this board is approved for installation in escape routes and circulation spaces. It allows you to place critical safety information exactly where it is needed—on the exit route itself—without violating fire codes.
- Composite Reliability: Safety equipment must not be a hazard itself. This unit features a fire-retardant core and face, engineered to resist ignition and limit flame spread, ensuring the escape route remains passable during an incident.
- Statutory Compliance: To avoid negligence claims, safety notices must be displayed prominently. This large, compliant board provides the legal assurance needed to display mandatory information in high-traffic zones.
Modular Tiling Potential
- Hazard Zoning: The 1200mm square shape allows for modular expansion. Mount boards in a row or grid to create a dedicated "Safety Wall" or "Permit to Work Station" that is clearly defined by its red colour.
- Seamless Visibility: The red felt wraps completely around the edges. When banked together, the lack of frames means there is no visual break, creating a solid block of warning colour that is impossible to miss.
- Maximized Capacity: The 1.44m² surface easily accommodates A1 or A0 sized site plans and statutory posters with room to spare for daily safety bulletins.
The Cobolt Standard
- Free UK Mainland Delivery: We prioritise safety equipment logistics. We cover the shipping costs to ensure there are no barriers to getting your site compliant quickly, with transparent pricing.
- British Manufacturing: Produced domestically to strict British Standards, our red boards offer consistent, vivid colour fastness and reliable fire safety certification on every unit.
- Secure Anchoring: In industrial environments, equipment must be secure. Our through-fixing kit anchors the board firmly to the wall, preventing it from becoming a loose hazard.
- High-Impact Material: We use professional-grade Signal Red felt that maintains its vibrancy, ensuring that your warning notices do not fade into the background over time.
Where is this Red Fire Resistant Board specified?
The 1200mm x 1200mm Red Fire Resistant Board is the standard for critical information areas requiring high impact. It is heavily utilised in:
- Industrial Warehouses: Creating a central "Safety Hub" for PPE requirements, shift patterns, and hazard warnings.
- Fire Exit Corridors: Displaying clear "Fire Action" instructions next to call points and exits on a compliant surface.
- Emergency Control Rooms: A large, reliable surface for pinning temporary incident maps and command logs.
- Student Unions: Used for urgent campaign notices, elections, or "Red Alert" announcements.
Key Features
- Large Square Format – 1200mm x 1200mm (4ft x 4ft) holds multiple large posters.
- Fire Rated Class B – Complies with BS EN 13501-1 for use in escape routes.
- Frameless Design – Wrapped felt edges allow for continuous "Red Zone" banking.
- Signal Red Felt – High-contrast background that demands attention.
- Pin & Staple Friendly – Dense core holds staples securely for permanent signage.
- Secure Through-Fixing – Mounts flush to the wall for a neat, tamper-resistant finish.
- Acoustic Damping – Reduces noise reverberation in concrete stairwells.
- British Standard Tested – Certified to BS EN 13501-1.
Cobolt Service & Ethos: Direct from the Experts
- 50 Years of Heritage: We have supported UK Safety Officers for decades, providing the documentation and reliable equipment needed for risk assessments and audits.
- Built to Last: We design for durability. Our boards are built to withstand the tough conditions of industrial sites and busy public corridors without failing.
- In-House UK Support: Safety is critical. Our UK-based team is on hand to answer compliance queries and ensure you order the correct rating for your building.
- Project Expertise: From a single warehouse to a multi-site factory rollout, we have the expertise to manage your safety signage infrastructure requirements.
Engineered for Compliance. Designed for Durability.
- Fire Safety: The entire unit (core and fabric) is tested as a composite to BS EN 13501-1 Class B. This ensures it meets the stringent requirements for wall linings in escape routes, preventing the board from fueling a fire.
- Vandal Resistance: The bonded felt is tough and difficult to pick at. Because the board is screwed directly to the wall (through the front), it is highly resistant to being pulled off or tampered with.
- Acoustic Benefits: These large boards act as sound absorbers in echoing stairwells, helping to clarify public address announcements or alarm sounds by reducing reverberation.
- Long-Life Surface: The high-quality felt is "self-healing," meaning pinholes tend to close up when pins are removed, ensuring safety notices always look neat and authoritative.
- We offer a 1-year manufacturer's guarantee covering the board construction and fire rating integrity.
The 1200mm x 1200mm Red Fire Resistant Noticeboard is the robust choice for safety signage. These specifications detail the compliance ratings and dimensions for your building logbook.
Please note: Always check your building's specific Fire Risk Assessment requirements before purchase. Class B is the standard requirement for most circulation areas.

Expert Advice for Safety Officers
Q: Is this board large enough for multiple safety posters?
A: Yes, the 1.44m² surface is vast. It can easily display the A2 Health & Safety Law poster, A3 insurance certificates, and multiple A4 fire maps simultaneously without clutter.
Q: Why is the Red colour important?
A: Red signifies "Action" and "Prohibition." In safety terms, red boards draw immediate attention to fire equipment locations and mandatory instructions, ensuring they are not ignored.
Q: Can I tile multiple boards together?
A: Yes, the square format is perfect for tiling. You can mount boards in a block (e.g., 2x2) to create a massive red "Safety Zone" wall for a dedicated command centre.
Q: Can I install this in a fire exit corridor?
A: Yes, it is fully compliant. It is tested to BS EN 13501-1 Class B, which allows it to be used as a wall lining in escape routes and circulation spaces where fire load must be minimized.
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. This makes it much harder to remove than boards hung on brackets.
Q: Can I use staples for permanent notices?
A: Yes, the core accepts staples firmly. Safety officers often prefer staples for permanent notices (like Fire Action signs) as they are tamper-resistant compared to pins.
Q: Is the whole board fire rated?
A: Yes, it is a composite test. Both the dense core board and the red fabric covering are fire retardant and tested together to ensure the complete unit achieves the Class B rating.
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.
