Bring a Whole Notice Wall Together on a Blue Fire Retardant Board
A wall covered in loose notices starts to look messy fast, so a big blue board does its job by drawing every stray sheet into one neat block of paper that a whole room can take in at a single glance. Cool blue looks business-like rather than loud, the felt behind it meets the fire rules set for public buildings, and pins and staples both grip so a single memo or a printed page goes straight up. This noticeboard is sold only through Displaysense. Best suited to offices, reception desks and staff rooms where a wall of information needs to look organised and pulled together, and the board itself must still pass all of its fire rules.
Why a Blue Board Looks Ordered Even When It Is Full
- Cool blue that keeps a wall business-like: A steady blue sits well alongside office and reception decor, giving a working wall a composed, unfussy look overall that suits a work setting far better than a bright shade that pulls the eye away from the notices themselves.
- One tidy block instead of scattered paper: The generous felt draws a full set of rotas, memos and posters into a single neat block, so a reception or a staff wall shows everything in one place and a reader takes it all in at once without hunting across a cluttered, patchy wall.
- Pins and staples both grip the felt: Push in a pin or fix a staple and the open blue face grips either one, so a one-page notice and a thick stapled report each sit flat against the felt and lift away cleanly whenever a working wall is refreshed for a fresh week, a new project or a change of team.
- Fire-rated felt sitting behind the blue: The fabric under the colour is treated and rated against recognised fire standards, so a board loaded right from edge to edge with paper still keeps an office, a school or a health centre on the right side of the fire-safety rules that building has to follow.
- Mounts upright or on its side: Set the board upright to run portrait up a tall piece of wall, or lay it landscape across a wide one, using the kit supplied, so a narrow bit of office wall or a long reception run gets the shape that best fits the material you plan to put on show.
- Hidden corner fixings, no bare hardware: Each corner tucks its own fixing away under a cap, so no screw heads or rough edges show on a board mounted where staff and visitors walk past, and the narrow frame runs a clean, level line all the way around the blue felt.
Where a Blue Bulletin Board Belongs in Everyday Workplaces
| Offices and Workspaces | Working walls in offices gain a blue board that pulls team notices, rotas and updates into one place, the even colour keeping a whole open-plan floor looking squared away while the fire-rated felt meets the fire rules a workplace follows. |
| Reception and Front Desks | Front-of-house areas take a crisp blue board that greets visitors with a tidy run of notices and directions, the business-like shade setting a composed, welcoming tone and the generous face keeping every message in clear view the moment someone arrives. |
| Staff Rooms and Back Office | Behind-the-scenes walls use a blue board to hold policies, shift rotas and team information in one place, the open felt letting a manager swap a single sheet fast between one shift and the next, with no lock or key to deal with. |
| Schools and Admin Offices | School offices and admin corridors get a blue board for staff notices, timetables and records, the level blue tone keeping a working admin wall neat and readable and the certified felt meeting the fire rules a school building has to keep. |
| Healthcare Reception and Clinics | Clinic desks and admin areas take a blue board for guidance, rotas and patient information, the level shade holding a composed, unhurried look and the tested felt keeping a paper-filled wall well within a health site's fire rules. |
| Retail and Public Counters | Back rooms and service counters use a blue board for staff notices, price updates and rotas, the cool blue suiting a busy trade setting and the roomy surface keeping a full week of information neatly together in a single spot. |
Want the Same Blue Board in a Smaller Size?
Where a full-size board is more wall than the space really needs, the same fire retardant blue felt also comes in a compact format. See the smaller blue fire retardant noticeboard here, which ships with free UK mainland delivery.
NB4818BL is a Fire Retardant Blue Felt Aluminium Framed Noticeboard from Displaysense. Its cool blue felt gives a wide wall a steady, ordered look, which is why it turns up in offices, reception areas and staff rooms that want a board to tie a wall together rather than shout for attention. The felt meets fire standards BS 476 Class 0 and BS-EN 13501-1 (B-s1, d0) for buildings the public uses. Height 1800mm, width 1200mm. Weight 15kg. An open blue felt face holds pins and staples, framed in satin silver anodised aluminium with hidden corner fixings and no visible hardware. There is no door and no lock. It mounts on the wall in portrait or landscape from the kit supplied, for indoor rooms only. Chosen by offices, reception desks, schools and health centres that want a big, fire-safe board that keeps a wall looking organised. Sold only through Displaysense, with the same board in red, green and grey at this size and a smaller 900mm by 600mm option. Displaysense, UK display specialist since 1978. Free UK delivery.
Blue is the shade people reach for when a wall has to look organised without drawing attention to itself, and across a surface as wide as this one that steadiness does real, visible work. A level blue keeps a busy office or reception wall looking put-together rather than chaotic, which is why it shows up so often on team boards, front desks and staff break areas. Print reads cleanly against it too, so a clean look never comes at the cost of a single notice being any harder to take in.
Room is the second thing this board offers, because a wide felt face pulls a whole run of material into a single place instead of leaving it scattered in patches over bare wall. Pinning and stapling both work straight onto the open blue surface, with no glass sheet or door in the way, so a single memo and a thick stapled pack each hold flat against the felt. A manager can group a full week of rotas, updates and notices neatly side by side and refresh any one of them in a few seconds.
Fire performance is built into the felt itself, which is treated to slow ignition and hold back flame and so reaches the two marks BS 476 Class 0 and BS-EN 13501-1 in the B-s1, d0 class. A board must pass both of those marks before it can go up on a wall in an office block, a school or any other building the public walks into. What this means in practice is that a blue board can carry a heavy load of paper and still stay inside the fire rules that apply to that particular room.
Framing the felt is satin silver anodised aluminium, with every corner closed off by a cap that hides the fixing so no hardware shows on a wall that people pass close by. Hung in portrait or landscape from the wall kit provided, the board is made for indoor rooms only and reaches you through Displaysense alone. The same fire-rated board is offered in red, green and grey at this size as well as a compact format, each with free UK mainland delivery and a 28-day returns window.
What Is Packed in the Box
- 1 x blue fire retardant felt noticeboard set in a satin silver anodised aluminium frame
- 1 x wall mounting kit with hidden, capped corner fixings

If the room would suit a gentler shade than a business blue, the same board comes in green at this size. Blue keeps a working wall ordered while green sits easier in a wellbeing or waiting space, so the pick follows the room. Our team is happy to advise.

| Specification | Detail | What This Means for You |
|---|---|---|
| Type | Blue open fire retardant felt noticeboard in wide format | A wide, open felt board that pulls a whole working wall into one neat block, while still staying fire-safe for use in a public building. |
| Colour | Blue | A cool, business-like blue keeps an office or a reception wall looking composed and in order rather than loud, busy or in any way distracting. |
| Size | 1800mm x 1200mm | A generous display area that gathers a full week of notices into one place and neatly covers a broad stretch of otherwise bare, hard wall. |
| Surface | Blue felt, holds pins and staples | The open felt grips both pins and staples across a wide face, so rotas, memos and updates pin straight up and then swap over quickly. |
| Fire rating | BS 476 Class 0, BS-EN 13501-1 (B-s1, d0) | Two named fire ratings let the blue felt carry a full load of paper while the office, school or clinic wall behind the board stays compliant. |
| Frame | Satin silver anodised aluminium | A slim satin silver frame sets a crisp, level edge right around the blue felt, which suits an office, corridor or reception wall. |
| Corner fixings | Hidden, capped corners | Every single fixing tucks away neatly under a corner cap, so no hardware or sharp edge shows on a board mounted in a shared, public space. |
| Weight | 15kg | A wide board that two people can comfortably lift and level between them, then leave sitting flat and steady once it has been fixed up. |
| Orientation | Portrait or landscape | Mount the blue board standing upright or turned on its side to fit the wall and the display, with the supplied kit covering either way up. |
| Wall fixings | Wall mounting kit supplied | The wall mounting kit is packed in with the board, so the blue panel can be levelled and put straight up on the same day it lands. |
| Environment | Indoor use | Made for indoor use in office, school, clinic and shop settings, but never for damp, wet or rain-hit spots out of doors. |
| Exclusivity | Available only from Displaysense | Stocked through Displaysense and no other retailer, which keeps this steady blue board a genuinely distinct pick for a busy workplace. |

Bring a Whole Notice Wall Together on a Blue Fire Retardant Board
A wall covered in loose notices starts to look messy fast, so a big blue board does its job by drawing every stray sheet into one neat block of paper that a whole room can take in at a single glance. Cool blue looks business-like rather than loud, the felt behind it meets the fire rules set for public buildings, and pins and staples both grip so a single memo or a printed page goes straight up. This noticeboard is sold only through Displaysense. Best suited to offices, reception desks and staff rooms where a wall of information needs to look organised and pulled together, and the board itself must still pass all of its fire rules.
Why a Blue Board Looks Ordered Even When It Is Full
- Cool blue that keeps a wall business-like: A steady blue sits well alongside office and reception decor, giving a working wall a composed, unfussy look overall that suits a work setting far better than a bright shade that pulls the eye away from the notices themselves.
- One tidy block instead of scattered paper: The generous felt draws a full set of rotas, memos and posters into a single neat block, so a reception or a staff wall shows everything in one place and a reader takes it all in at once without hunting across a cluttered, patchy wall.
- Pins and staples both grip the felt: Push in a pin or fix a staple and the open blue face grips either one, so a one-page notice and a thick stapled report each sit flat against the felt and lift away cleanly whenever a working wall is refreshed for a fresh week, a new project or a change of team.
- Fire-rated felt sitting behind the blue: The fabric under the colour is treated and rated against recognised fire standards, so a board loaded right from edge to edge with paper still keeps an office, a school or a health centre on the right side of the fire-safety rules that building has to follow.
- Mounts upright or on its side: Set the board upright to run portrait up a tall piece of wall, or lay it landscape across a wide one, using the kit supplied, so a narrow bit of office wall or a long reception run gets the shape that best fits the material you plan to put on show.
- Hidden corner fixings, no bare hardware: Each corner tucks its own fixing away under a cap, so no screw heads or rough edges show on a board mounted where staff and visitors walk past, and the narrow frame runs a clean, level line all the way around the blue felt.

| Healthcare Reception and Clinics | Clinic desks and admin areas take a blue board for guidance, rotas and patient information, the level shade holding a composed, unhurried look and the tested felt keeping a paper-filled wall well within a health site's fire rules. |
| Retail and Public Counters | Back rooms and service counters use a blue board for staff notices, price updates and rotas, the cool blue suiting a busy trade setting and the roomy surface keeping a full week of information neatly together in a single spot. |

It mounts on the wall in portrait or landscape from the kit supplied, for indoor rooms only. Chosen by offices, reception desks, schools and health centres that want a big, fire-safe board that keeps a wall looking organised. Sold only through Displaysense, with the same board in red, green and grey at this size and a smaller 900mm by 600mm option. Displaysense, UK display specialist since 1978. Free UK delivery.
Blue is the shade people reach for when a wall has to look organised without drawing attention to itself, and across a surface as wide as this one that steadiness does real, visible work. A level blue keeps a busy office or reception wall looking put-together rather than chaotic, which is why it shows up so often on team boards, front desks and staff break areas. Print reads cleanly against it too, so a clean look never comes at the cost of a single notice being any harder to take in.
Room is the second thing this board offers, because a wide felt face pulls a whole run of material into a single place instead of leaving it scattered in patches over bare wall. Pinning and stapling both work straight onto the open blue surface, with no glass sheet or door in the way, so a single memo and a thick stapled pack each hold flat against the felt. A manager can group a full week of rotas, updates and notices neatly side by side and refresh any one of them in a few seconds.
Fire performance is built into the felt itself, which is treated to slow ignition and hold back flame and so reaches the two marks BS 476 Class 0 and BS-EN 13501-1 in the B-s1, d0 class. A board must pass both of those marks before it can go up on a wall in an office block, a school or any other building the public walks into. What this means in practice is that a blue board can carry a heavy load of paper and still stay inside the fire rules that apply to that particular room.
Framing the felt is satin silver anodised aluminium, with every corner closed off by a cap that hides the fixing so no hardware shows on a wall that people pass close by.

| Specification | Detail | What This Means for You |
|---|---|---|
| Type | Blue open fire retardant felt noticeboard in wide format | A wide, open felt board that pulls a whole working wall into one neat block, while still staying fire-safe for use in a public building. |
| Colour | Blue | A cool, business-like blue keeps an office or a reception wall looking composed and in order rather than loud, busy or in any way distracting. |
| Size | 1800mm x 1200mm | A generous display area that gathers a full week of notices into one place and neatly covers a broad stretch of otherwise bare, hard wall. |
| Surface | Blue felt, holds pins and staples | The open felt grips both pins and staples across a wide face, so rotas, memos and updates pin straight up and then swap over quickly. |
| Fire rating | BS 476 Class 0, BS-EN 13501-1 (B-s1, d0) | Two named fire ratings let the blue felt carry a full load of paper while the office, school or clinic wall behind the board stays compliant. |
| Frame | Satin silver anodised aluminium | A slim satin silver frame sets a crisp, level edge right around the blue felt, which suits an office, corridor or reception wall. |
| Corner fixings | Hidden, capped corners | Every single fixing tucks away neatly under a corner cap, so no hardware or sharp edge shows on a board mounted in a shared, public space. |
| Weight | 15kg | A wide board that two people can comfortably lift and level between them, then leave sitting flat and steady once it has been fixed up. |
| Orientation | Portrait or landscape | Mount the blue board standing upright or turned on its side to fit the wall and the display, with the supplied kit covering either way up. |
| Wall fixings | Wall mounting kit supplied | The wall mounting kit is packed in with the board, so the blue panel can be levelled and put straight up on the same day it lands. |
| Environment | Indoor use | Made for indoor use in office, school, clinic and shop settings, but never for damp, wet or rain-hit spots out of doors. |
| Exclusivity | Available only from Displaysense | Stocked through Displaysense and no other retailer, which keeps this steady blue board a genuinely distinct pick for a busy workplace. |

Questions About This Blue Fire Retardant Noticeboard
Running an Ordered, Well-Kept Notice Wall That People Trust
A big board only helps if the wall stays organised, and a steady blue suits the offices, front desks and admin areas where order counts. These Displaysense guides cover choosing the right board for the job, setting up a clear and welcoming reception display, tracking day-to-day information like attendance, and keeping the busy communication wall of a hall of residence in good, usable shape right through the year.
Overview
Bring a Whole Notice Wall Together on a Blue Fire Retardant Board
A wall covered in loose notices starts to look messy fast, so a big blue board does its job by drawing every stray sheet into one neat block of paper that a whole room can take in at a single glance. Cool blue looks business-like rather than loud, the felt behind it meets the fire rules set for public buildings, and pins and staples both grip so a single memo or a printed page goes straight up. This noticeboard is sold only through Displaysense. Best suited to offices, reception desks and staff rooms where a wall of information needs to look organised and pulled together, and the board itself must still pass all of its fire rules.
Why a Blue Board Looks Ordered Even When It Is Full
- Cool blue that keeps a wall business-like: A steady blue sits well alongside office and reception decor, giving a working wall a composed, unfussy look overall that suits a work setting far better than a bright shade that pulls the eye away from the notices themselves.
- One tidy block instead of scattered paper: The generous felt draws a full set of rotas, memos and posters into a single neat block, so a reception or a staff wall shows everything in one place and a reader takes it all in at once without hunting across a cluttered, patchy wall.
- Pins and staples both grip the felt: Push in a pin or fix a staple and the open blue face grips either one, so a one-page notice and a thick stapled report each sit flat against the felt and lift away cleanly whenever a working wall is refreshed for a fresh week, a new project or a change of team.
- Fire-rated felt sitting behind the blue: The fabric under the colour is treated and rated against recognised fire standards, so a board loaded right from edge to edge with paper still keeps an office, a school or a health centre on the right side of the fire-safety rules that building has to follow.
- Mounts upright or on its side: Set the board upright to run portrait up a tall piece of wall, or lay it landscape across a wide one, using the kit supplied, so a narrow bit of office wall or a long reception run gets the shape that best fits the material you plan to put on show.
- Hidden corner fixings, no bare hardware: Each corner tucks its own fixing away under a cap, so no screw heads or rough edges show on a board mounted where staff and visitors walk past, and the narrow frame runs a clean, level line all the way around the blue felt.
Where a Blue Bulletin Board Belongs in Everyday Workplaces
| Offices and Workspaces | Working walls in offices gain a blue board that pulls team notices, rotas and updates into one place, the even colour keeping a whole open-plan floor looking squared away while the fire-rated felt meets the fire rules a workplace follows. |
| Reception and Front Desks | Front-of-house areas take a crisp blue board that greets visitors with a tidy run of notices and directions, the business-like shade setting a composed, welcoming tone and the generous face keeping every message in clear view the moment someone arrives. |
| Staff Rooms and Back Office | Behind-the-scenes walls use a blue board to hold policies, shift rotas and team information in one place, the open felt letting a manager swap a single sheet fast between one shift and the next, with no lock or key to deal with. |
| Schools and Admin Offices | School offices and admin corridors get a blue board for staff notices, timetables and records, the level blue tone keeping a working admin wall neat and readable and the certified felt meeting the fire rules a school building has to keep. |
| Healthcare Reception and Clinics | Clinic desks and admin areas take a blue board for guidance, rotas and patient information, the level shade holding a composed, unhurried look and the tested felt keeping a paper-filled wall well within a health site's fire rules. |
| Retail and Public Counters | Back rooms and service counters use a blue board for staff notices, price updates and rotas, the cool blue suiting a busy trade setting and the roomy surface keeping a full week of information neatly together in a single spot. |

Description
Blue is the shade people reach for when a wall has to look organised without drawing attention to itself, and across a surface as wide as this one that steadiness does real, visible work. A level blue keeps a busy office or reception wall looking put-together rather than chaotic, which is why it shows up so often on team boards, front desks and staff break areas. Print reads cleanly against it too, so a clean look never comes at the cost of a single notice being any harder to take in.
Room is the second thing this board offers, because a wide felt face pulls a whole run of material into a single place instead of leaving it scattered in patches over bare wall. Pinning and stapling both work straight onto the open blue surface, with no glass sheet or door in the way, so a single memo and a thick stapled pack each hold flat against the felt. A manager can group a full week of rotas, updates and notices neatly side by side and refresh any one of them in a few seconds.
Fire performance is built into the felt itself, which is treated to slow ignition and hold back flame and so reaches the two marks BS 476 Class 0 and BS-EN 13501-1 in the B-s1, d0 class. A board must pass both of those marks before it can go up on a wall in an office block, a school or any other building the public walks into. What this means in practice is that a blue board can carry a heavy load of paper and still stay inside the fire rules that apply to that particular room.
Framing the felt is satin silver anodised aluminium, with every corner closed off by a cap that hides the fixing so no hardware shows on a wall that people pass close by. Hung in portrait or landscape from the wall kit provided, the board is made for indoor rooms only and reaches you through Displaysense alone. The same fire-rated board is offered in red, green and grey at this size as well as a compact format, each with free UK mainland delivery and a 28-day returns window.
What Is Packed in the Box
- 1 x blue fire retardant felt noticeboard set in a satin silver anodised aluminium frame
- 1 x wall mounting kit with hidden, capped corner fixings
Prefer a Warmer, Softer Colour?
If the room would suit a gentler shade than a business blue, the same board comes in green at this size. Blue keeps a working wall ordered while green sits easier in a wellbeing or waiting space, so the pick follows the room. Our team is happy to advise.
