Product Overview: The Safety Officer's Standard
The Cobolt 1200x900mm Red Fire Resistant Noticeboard is the definitive tool for critical communication. In an emergency, information must be visible instantly. This board uses Signal Red—the universal colour for danger and prohibition—to ensure that Fire Marshal Lists, Site Safety Rules, and Emergency Protocols are seen and read, all while 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 safety information exactly where it is needed—on the exit route itself—without violating fire codes.
- Total Composite Rating: Unlike boards with surface-only treatments, this unit features a fire-retardant core and face. It is engineered to resist ignition and limit flame spread, ensuring the escape route remains passable during an incident.
- Statutory Compliance: Displaying the "Health & Safety Law" poster is a legal requirement. Doing so on a non-compliant board in a corridor is a risk. This product solves both problems simultaneously.
Modular Frameless Design
- High-Impact Zoning: The red felt wraps around the edges, allowing you to mount boards side-by-side to create a solid red wall. This is often used to designate "Permit to Work" stations or "Fire Command" areas in factories.
- Maximized Capacity: The 1200x900mm size is perfect for holding the large A2 or A1 statutory posters that smaller boards cannot accommodate, with no frame lip to obscure the text.
- Universal Mounting: The board can be installed in Portrait or Landscape orientation, allowing it to fit on structural pillars or wide corridor walls as required.
The Cobolt Standard
- Free UK Mainland Delivery: We cover the shipping costs on every order, ensuring you have a simple, transparent price for your departmental budget with no hidden fees at checkout.
- Safety-First Deployment: We prioritise the availability of compliance equipment, ensuring rapid dispatch to help you meet urgent safety audit requirements or fire inspection deadlines.
- British Manufacturing: Produced domestically to strict British Standards, ensuring high-quality construction and consistent fire safety certification on every unit delivered.
- Secure Installation: Supplied with a dedicated through-fixing kit that anchors the board firmly to the wall, preventing it from becoming an obstacle or weapon in high-risk areas.
Where is this Red Fire Resistant Board specified?
The 1200mm x 900mm Red Fire Resistant Board is the standard for critical information areas. It is heavily utilised in:
- Industrial Sites: Acting as the central "Safety Station" for PPE requirements and hazard warnings.
- Escape Corridors: Displaying clear "Fire Action" instructions next to call points and exits.
- Student Unions: Used for urgent campaign notices or elections where high visibility is required.
- Emergency Control Rooms: A reliable surface for pinning temporary maps and incident logs.
Key Features
- Generous 4x3 Size – 1200mm x 900mm accommodates large statutory posters easily.
- 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 – Screws through the face for a flush, secure fit.
- Portrait or Landscape – Flexible orientation to suit facility layout.
- Acoustic Damping – Reduces noise reverberation in concrete stairwells.
Cobolt Service & Ethos: Direct from the Experts
- 50 Years of Heritage: We have been a trusted knowledge base for the industry for half a century, supporting UK safety sectors, universities, and councils with reliable display equipment.
- Built to Last: We prioritise high standards and quality construction. Our products are built to withstand the test of time in demanding public environments, offering long-term reliability.

- Project Expertise: We have the expertise to assist with your specific projects. We understand your unique requirements and compliance needs, ensuring you get the right solution every time.
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 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 900mm 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 the H&S Law poster?
A: Yes, comfortably. The 1200x900mm dimensions provide ample space for the A2 or A1 Health & Safety Law poster, plus fire maps and first aider lists, all on one board.
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 4ft x 3ft. The precise metric dimensions are 1200mm (width) x 900mm (height), or vice-versa depending on orientation.
