Product Overview: The Ultimate Safety Station

The Cobolt 1800x1200mm Red Fire Resistant Noticeboard is the definitive tool for safety compliance in large facilities. In expansive warehouses or factories, small notices are easily ignored. This 1.8-metre wide unit creates a dominant focal point. The Signal Red finish acts as a visual "Stop" sign, ensuring that Fire Marshal lists, emergency protocols, and prohibition notices are seen from a distance, while the Class B rating keeps your building compliant.

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 utilize large corridor walls for critical safety info without increasing the building's fire load.
  • Composite Reliability: This unit features a fire-retardant core and face, engineered to resist ignition and limit flame spread. This composite build ensures the escape route remains passable even if the board is exposed to heat.
  • Statutory Compliance: To avoid negligence claims, safety notices must be prominent. This large-format board allows you to display the full suite of mandatory posters (A1/A0 size) on a single, compliant surface.

Modular Visibility

  • Red Zone Banking: The red felt wraps around the edges, allowing you to mount boards in a continuous row. This is ideal for creating a dedicated "Safety Wall" or "Permit to Work Station" that spans several metres.
  • Maximized Capacity: With over 2m² of usable space, this board easily accommodates large site maps, insurance certificates, and multiple A4 notices without clutter. The lack of a frame means notices can be pinned right to the edge.
  • Universal Mounting: The board can be installed in Portrait or Landscape orientation, allowing it to fit on structural columns or across wide wall sections as required.

The Cobolt Standard

  • Free UK Mainland Delivery: We prioritise the delivery of safety equipment. We absorb the heavy item shipping costs to ensure there are no barriers to getting your site compliant quickly.
  • Audit Readiness: We understand the urgency of safety audits. Our stock and logistics are managed to ensure rapid dispatch, helping you meet inspection deadlines.
  • 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 or weapon.

Where is this 1800x1200mm Board specified?

The 1800mm 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

  • Extra-Large Format – 1800mm x 1200mm (6ft 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 1800mm 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.

Expert Advice for Safety Officers

Q: Is this board large enough for the H&S Law poster?

A: Yes, comfortably. The 1800x1200mm dimensions provide massive space for the A2 or A1 Health & Safety Law poster, plus large site maps and fire marshal lists.

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 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: How does the unframed design work?

A: The red felt wraps around the edges. This allows you to mount boards side-by-side to create a continuous red warning zone wall without aluminium frames breaking the visual impact.

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 is the size in feet?

A: It is approximately 6ft x 4ft. The precise metric dimensions are 1800mm (width) x 1200mm (height).

Product FAQs

Expert Advice for Safety Officers

Q: Is this board large enough for the H&S Law poster?

A: Yes, comfortably. The 1800x1200mm dimensions provide massive space for the A2 or A1 Health & Safety Law poster, plus large site maps and fire marshal lists.

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 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: How does the unframed design work?

A: The red felt wraps around the edges. This allows you to mount boards side-by-side to create a continuous red warning zone wall without aluminium frames breaking the visual impact.

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 is the size in feet?

A: It is approximately 6ft x 4ft. The precise metric dimensions are 1800mm (width) x 1200mm (height).
