Give Notices a Steady Backdrop on a Blue Felt Noticeboard
A cool blue felt keeps a wall composed, and on this large frameless board it lends a professional look that holds notices in clear contrast while keeping a busy space calm rather than loud. Fire-tested as one finished unit, it meets BS 476 Class 0 and, in the European scheme, BS EN 13501-1 Class B-s1 d0, the felt taking pins and Velcro-backed resources while its wrapped edges carry no frame, so the board lies flush and runs on into others for a wider display. Mounted portrait or landscape, it suits the offices, reception areas and clinical corridors a large building has to keep both tidy and compliant. Best suited to offices, healthcare sites and public buildings where a large, composed display must meet fire-safety standards and read as professional at once.
Why Professional Spaces Choose a Fire-Tested Board
- Fixes with pins or Velcro: The blue felt grips a drawing pin and a Velcro-backed sheet with equal ease, so posters, rotas and signage all go up cleanly and lift off in seconds. A working display can change as often as the week demands while the surface keeps its even, composed finish.
- Edge-wrapped with no raised frame: Wrapping the felt over the edges leaves no surround, so the board lies flat for a tidy look and gives less to snag a sleeve in a corridor. Set two or three side by side and they meet edge to edge as one wider run where a single panel falls short.
- A composed blue for a busy wall: Cool, corporate blue keeps a large display calm rather than loud, giving notices a steady, professional backdrop instead of a stark one. Black text and posters hold clear contrast against it, so the board reads as considered on an office or clinical wall.
- Independently fire-classified: Tested whole rather than in parts, the board earns a BS 476 Class 0 rating and, under EN 13501-1, a Class B-s1 d0 one, so the certificate covers the finished item. That is the proof a fire or estates team wants before a display is cleared for a protected route.
- Light and quick to hang: Light despite its width and packed with wall fixings, the board goes onto a solid wall without drama, an extra hand useful only to hold the broad face level. Once up it needs no further attention, a large, compliant display gained for barely any effort.
- Suited to indoor corridors: Indoors is where it belongs, on the corridor, foyer and shared-room walls of an office, reception or hospital, kept from the damp and weather that would spoil felt. There it carries a full spread of notices while holding its calm, professional look.
Where a Cool Blue Board Suits a Busy Office Wall
| Offices and Corporate Floors | A restful blue carries policies, updates and safety notices across open-plan and meeting-room walls without shouting, the borderless face keeping things sharp among glass and steel while certification meets the fire rules a shared route must satisfy. |
| Reception and Front-of-House | At reception and along waiting walls, a composed blue felt carries welcome details and public notices, the frameless edge lending a considered air to the first impression a large board gives a visitor as they arrive. |
| Healthcare and Clinical Spaces | Along department corridors and clinic walls, patient guidance and staff notices sit on a fire-rated blue surface, the cool tone lifting a pressured space while certification keeps a large communication board compliant. |
| Schools and Colleges | A certified blue display board carries timetables, safeguarding notices and pupil information through teaching corridors and staffrooms, its cool tone calming a busy wall and its flush build slipping neatly onto the space between classroom doors. |
| Council and Public Buildings | Local information and safety notices go up on a composite-tested blue board in civic corridors and community halls, the understated colour and flush finish suiting a public setting that wants a display looking ordered and staying compliant together. |
| Stairwells and Escape Routes | A BS 476 Class 0 rating keeps evacuation guidance in place on a protected stairwell, the certified blue holding good on an escape route a building has to keep compliant through constant, daily use. |

NB7309B is a large Unframed Fire-Resistant Blue Felt Noticeboard from Displaysense. A frameless board with an edge-wrapped fire-rated blue felt surface, independently certified as a complete unit to BS 476 Class 0 and BS EN 13501-1:2002 Class B-s1 d0, with no frame so it sits flush and boards butt together for wider coverage. Dimensions 900mm x 1200mm. Weight 13.6kg. Fire-rated blue felt for pins and Velcro-backed resources, unframed edge-wrapped construction, portrait or landscape mounting, wall fixings included, indoor use. Used by offices, reception areas, healthcare sites, schools and council buildings for policies, timetables, safety information and staff notices in corridors, stairwells and escape routes. Also available in a smaller size and in red, green and grey, with an aluminium-framed fire-rated version for a defined edge. Displaysense, UK display specialist based in Hertfordshire since 1978. Free UK delivery.
Edge-wrapped and frameless, the board carries its blue felt to the very border and sits flat to the wall, a clean face with nothing raised to snag a sleeve as people pass. Where a single panel runs short, others sit hard against it with no join between, so a bare stretch of wall becomes one continuous display rather than a line of separate boards. That flush, unbroken finish carries a modern, considered look, letting the notices hold the wall with no border pulling the eye away. On a corporate or clinical wall, that restraint is part of the appeal, since the board should frame the message without competing with it.
Across the whole board, an independent lab confirms a Class 0 result to BS 476 and, under EN 13501-1, a Class B-s1 d0 one, assessing the finished unit rather than component by component, so the rating sits with the item on the wall and not one layer of it. It is that whole-unit result which clears the board for a corridor, stairwell or escape route, the fire-sensitive places an untested surface has no business in. The classes are printed on the certificates for a fire officer to check, and an estates or procurement team files the same record against the order.
Corporate settings favour a cool blue for good reason, since it keeps a large display composed rather than loud so a busy office, reception or clinic reads as considered rather than cluttered. Black print holds sharp contrast against the blue, so notices stay legible while the panel itself settles the wall, and the restful tone sits easily beside glass, steel and other modern fittings. It is the colour to reach for where a display should look professional first and catch the eye second.
Pins and Velcro both grip the blue felt, so a laminated notice and a light flyer alike fix firmly and lift away clean, which keeps a fast-changing wall simple to manage. For all its breadth the board weighs little and comes with wall fixings, settling onto a solid indoor wall in minutes, its width the only reason a second pair of hands helps keep it true. Kept indoors and out of the damp, that composed, compliant surface simply gets on with the job for a whole space to share.

Below is the NB7309B set out in full, from the large blue felt and its edge-wrapped, frameless build to the fire rating carried under BS 476 and BS EN 13501-1. A short note beside each row explains what the detail means for a big, composed display in an office, clinic or public building.
| Specification | Detail | What This Means for You |
|---|---|---|
| Type | Unframed fire-resistant noticeboard | A large frameless blue felt board, fire-rated as one unit, for a composed, compliant display along the corridors, stairwells and lobbies of a building. |
| Colour / Finish | Fire-rated blue felt | A cool, corporate blue over a fire-rated backing that keeps a wall calm, holds black text sharply and reads as professional rather than urgent. |
| Board Size | 900mm x 1200mm | Space for a whole set of notices, timetables and signage at once, so one large board replaces several smaller ones on a busy office or clinic wall over its life. |
| Weight | 13.6kg | Its low weight for such a width lets one person lift and fix it, a helper only wanted to hold the far side steady during levelling. |
| Surface | Fire-rated blue felt, pins and Velcro | Blue felt grips push pins and Velcro-backed resources, so signage and posters stay firm across the whole face and swap out without a mark left behind. |
| Design | Unframed, edge-wrapped fabric | Felt folded over the edges leaves no frame, so the panel lies flush, catches little and joins its neighbours into one seamless, wider run. |
| Orientation | Portrait or landscape | Hangs upright or on its side, so a tall wall or a wide one both suit the board, which turns to match the space and the notices it holds. |
| Fixings | Wall fixings included | Everything needed to hang it ships in the box, so the board arrives at a solid wall ready to fix, nothing else to buy or chase up first. |
| Fire Certification | Class 0 under BS 476, B-s1 d0 under EN 13501-1 | An independent lab confirms both fire ratings, the proof a specifier wants before putting the board on a protected route with confidence. |
| Fire Testing | Complete unit | Passed as the whole finished board rather than one layer at a time, so the rating covers the item that goes on the wall, not a single part of it. |
| Environment | Indoor use | Intended for indoor corridors, foyers and wards, and kept clear of the damp and weather that would work into felt and ruin it in time. |
| Ideal Locations | Corridors, stairwells, escape routes | Made for the busy, fire-sensitive walls of offices, reception, hospitals and councils that want a composed board plainly on show. |

Frequently Asked Questions About This Large Fire-Rated Noticeboard
Q: Which large fire-rated noticeboard is best for a professional office or reception wall?
A: The best large fire-rated noticeboard for a professional office or reception is the NB7309B, an unframed blue felt board of 900mm x 1200mm that meets BS 476 Class 0 and, in the European system, EN 13501-1 Class B-s1 d0. The cool tone keeps a wall composed, the felt takes pins and Velcro, and the board hangs either way round in a compliant, high-traffic setting.
Q: What fire rating does this blue board carry?
A: The board holds a BS 476 Class 0 rating and, in the European system, a BS EN 13501-1:2002 Class B-s1 d0 one, both applied to the finished item and not to one component. Because the whole board is proven rather than a single layer, it can be specified for a corridor, stairwell or escape route with confidence.
Q: Why choose a blue board for an office or clinic?
A: Blue reads as calm and professional. Its cool, corporate tone keeps a large display composed rather than urgent, so an office, reception or clinic wall looks considered instead of cluttered. The certified felt still meets the fire rules a shared route sets, so a professional look and compliance arrive together on the one board.
Q: Can I fix notices with Velcro or only with pins?
A: Both work on this felt board. Push pins press into the blue felt and Velcro-backed resources grip it just as well, so a heavier laminated sheet and a light paper flyer alike stay put and peel off cleanly. It gives you room to arrange and update an information board in whatever way a busy wall calls for.
Q: What does the frameless, edge-wrapped design offer?
A: The blue felt runs to the border with nothing framing it, so the display board sits flush to the wall and leaves little proud to catch a sleeve in a walkway. Panels can sit tight together as one broad run, and the borderless face keeps a clean, modern look that suits a corporate or clinical space.
Q: Can the wall board be mounted portrait or landscape?
A: Both ways up are fine. Hang it upright for a narrow wall or turn it wide for a low, broad one, to suit the space and what goes on it. The fixings come supplied, and although the board is light for its size, its width means a second person makes levelling the face easier as it is set.
Q: How does this blue board compare with the grey NB7309GY?
A: The two are the same unframed, fire-certified 900mm x 1200mm board and both take pins and Velcro, so tone decides. Blue reads cool and corporate, a fit for offices, reception and clinical walls. The grey NB7309GY is more neutral and recessive, disappearing into almost any decor where a quieter surface is wanted.
Q: How large and heavy is this bulletin board?
A: The board measures 900mm x 1200mm and weighs 13.6kg, a size made for the bigger walls of an office, corridor or foyer. That weight stays modest for the span, so one person can hang it, though the wide face is quicker to level with someone steadying the far side as the fixings go in.
Q: Is this noticeboard for indoor use only?
A: Yes, indoors only. Offices, corridors and clinics suit it, though it should be kept clear of anywhere damp or outdoor, where moisture would get into the felt and spoil it. Kept inside, the fire-rated blue surface stands up well to the daily handling of a busy building.
Q: How do you fix a board this wide to the wall?
A: The fixings needed are supplied, and the board beds flat onto a solid wall in minutes. One person can hold it level while a second drives the screws, in portrait or landscape. With no frame in the way, several boards line up edge to edge into a wider run with no seam showing between them.
Q: Can this board go in an escape route or stairwell?
A: Yes. It is rated to BS 476 Class 0, and separately to EN 13501-1 Class B-s1 d0, across the finished unit, so the board suits stairwells, escape routes and other fire-sensitive shared areas. Its composed blue keeps evacuation guidance plainly on show, and the certification satisfies the standards those routes demand.
Q: Does this noticeboard come in other sizes or colours?
A: Yes. The unframed fire-rated range starts at a compact board and rises past this size, and beside blue the certified felt is offered in red, green and grey. Should a crisp aluminium edge suit better than the borderless face, a matching framed fire version is stocked as well.

Give Notices a Steady Backdrop on a Blue Felt Noticeboard
A cool blue felt keeps a wall composed, and on this large frameless board it lends a professional look that holds notices in clear contrast while keeping a busy space calm rather than loud. Fire-tested as one finished unit, it meets BS 476 Class 0 and, in the European scheme, BS EN 13501-1 Class B-s1 d0, the felt taking pins and Velcro-backed resources while its wrapped edges carry no frame, so the board lies flush and runs on into others for a wider display. Mounted portrait or landscape, it suits the offices, reception areas and clinical corridors a large building has to keep both tidy and compliant. Best suited to offices, healthcare sites and public buildings where a large, composed display must meet fire-safety standards and read as professional at once.
Why Professional Spaces Choose a Fire-Tested Board
- Fixes with pins or Velcro: The blue felt grips a drawing pin and a Velcro-backed sheet with equal ease, so posters, rotas and signage all go up cleanly and lift off in seconds. A working display can change as often as the week demands while the surface keeps its even, composed finish.
- Edge-wrapped with no raised frame: Wrapping the felt over the edges leaves no surround, so the board lies flat for a tidy look and gives less to snag a sleeve in a corridor. Set two or three side by side and they meet edge to edge as one wider run where a single panel falls short.
- A composed blue for a busy wall: Cool, corporate blue keeps a large display calm rather than loud, giving notices a steady, professional backdrop instead of a stark one. Black text and posters hold clear contrast against it, so the board reads as considered on an office or clinical wall.
- Independently fire-classified: Tested whole rather than in parts, the board earns a BS 476 Class 0 rating and, under EN 13501-1, a Class B-s1 d0 one, so the certificate covers the finished item. That is the proof a fire or estates team wants before a display is cleared for a protected route.
- Light and quick to hang: Light despite its width and packed with wall fixings, the board goes onto a solid wall without drama, an extra hand useful only to hold the broad face level. Once up it needs no further attention, a large, compliant display gained for barely any effort.
- Suited to indoor corridors: Indoors is where it belongs, on the corridor, foyer and shared-room walls of an office, reception or hospital, kept from the damp and weather that would spoil felt. There it carries a full spread of notices while holding its calm, professional look.
Where a Cool Blue Board Suits a Busy Office Wall
| Offices and Corporate Floors | A restful blue carries policies, updates and safety notices across open-plan and meeting-room walls without shouting, the borderless face keeping things sharp among glass and steel while certification meets the fire rules a shared route must satisfy. |
| Reception and Front-of-House | At reception and along waiting walls, a composed blue felt carries welcome details and public notices, the frameless edge lending a considered air to the first impression a large board gives a visitor as they arrive. |
| Healthcare and Clinical Spaces | Along department corridors and clinic walls, patient guidance and staff notices sit on a fire-rated blue surface, the cool tone lifting a pressured space while certification keeps a large communication board compliant. |
| Schools and Colleges | A certified blue display board carries timetables, safeguarding notices and pupil information through teaching corridors and staffrooms, its cool tone calming a busy wall and its flush build slipping neatly onto the space between classroom doors. |
| Council and Public Buildings | Local information and safety notices go up on a composite-tested blue board in civic corridors and community halls, the understated colour and flush finish suiting a public setting that wants a display looking ordered and staying compliant together. |
| Stairwells and Escape Routes | A BS 476 Class 0 rating keeps evacuation guidance in place on a protected stairwell, the certified blue holding good on an escape route a building has to keep compliant through constant, daily use. |

NB7309B is a large Unframed Fire-Resistant Blue Felt Noticeboard from Displaysense. A frameless board with an edge-wrapped fire-rated blue felt surface, independently certified as a complete unit to BS 476 Class 0 and BS EN 13501-1:2002 Class B-s1 d0, with no frame so it sits flush and boards butt together for wider coverage. Dimensions 900mm x 1200mm. Weight 13.6kg. Fire-rated blue felt for pins and Velcro-backed resources, unframed edge-wrapped construction, portrait or landscape mounting, wall fixings included, indoor use. Used by offices, reception areas, healthcare sites, schools and council buildings for policies, timetables, safety information and staff notices in corridors, stairwells and escape routes. Also available in a smaller size and in red, green and grey, with an aluminium-framed fire-rated version for a defined edge. Displaysense, UK display specialist based in Hertfordshire since 1978. Free UK delivery.
Edge-wrapped and frameless, the board carries its blue felt to the very border and sits flat to the wall, a clean face with nothing raised to snag a sleeve as people pass. Where a single panel runs short, others sit hard against it with no join between, so a bare stretch of wall becomes one continuous display rather than a line of separate boards. That flush, unbroken finish carries a modern, considered look, letting the notices hold the wall with no border pulling the eye away. On a corporate or clinical wall, that restraint is part of the appeal, since the board should frame the message without competing with it.
Across the whole board, an independent lab confirms a Class 0 result to BS 476 and, under EN 13501-1, a Class B-s1 d0 one, assessing the finished unit rather than component by component, so the rating sits with the item on the wall and not one layer of it. It is that whole-unit result which clears the board for a corridor, stairwell or escape route, the fire-sensitive places an untested surface has no business in. The classes are printed on the certificates for a fire officer to check, and an estates or procurement team files the same record against the order.
Corporate settings favour a cool blue for good reason, since it keeps a large display composed rather than loud so a busy office, reception or clinic reads as considered rather than cluttered. Black print holds sharp contrast against the blue, so notices stay legible while the panel itself settles the wall, and the restful tone sits easily beside glass, steel and other modern fittings. It is the colour to reach for where a display should look professional first and catch the eye second.
Pins and Velcro both grip the blue felt, so a laminated notice and a light flyer alike fix firmly and lift away clean, which keeps a fast-changing wall simple to manage. For all its breadth the board weighs little and comes with wall fixings, settling onto a solid indoor wall in minutes, its width the only reason a second pair of hands helps keep it true. Kept indoors and out of the damp, that composed, compliant surface simply gets on with the job for a whole space to share.

Below is the NB7309B set out in full, from the large blue felt and its edge-wrapped, frameless build to the fire rating carried under BS 476 and BS EN 13501-1. A short note beside each row explains what the detail means for a big, composed display in an office, clinic or public building.
| Specification | Detail | What This Means for You |
|---|---|---|
| Type | Unframed fire-resistant noticeboard | A large frameless blue felt board, fire-rated as one unit, for a composed, compliant display along the corridors, stairwells and lobbies of a building. |
| Colour / Finish | Fire-rated blue felt | A cool, corporate blue over a fire-rated backing that keeps a wall calm, holds black text sharply and reads as professional rather than urgent. |
| Board Size | 900mm x 1200mm | Space for a whole set of notices, timetables and signage at once, so one large board replaces several smaller ones on a busy office or clinic wall over its life. |
| Weight | 13.6kg | Its low weight for such a width lets one person lift and fix it, a helper only wanted to hold the far side steady during levelling. |
| Surface | Fire-rated blue felt, pins and Velcro | Blue felt grips push pins and Velcro-backed resources, so signage and posters stay firm across the whole face and swap out without a mark left behind. |
| Design | Unframed, edge-wrapped fabric | Felt folded over the edges leaves no frame, so the panel lies flush, catches little and joins its neighbours into one seamless, wider run. |
| Orientation | Portrait or landscape | Hangs upright or on its side, so a tall wall or a wide one both suit the board, which turns to match the space and the notices it holds. |
| Fixings | Wall fixings included | Everything needed to hang it ships in the box, so the board arrives at a solid wall ready to fix, nothing else to buy or chase up first. |
| Fire Certification | Class 0 under BS 476, B-s1 d0 under EN 13501-1 | An independent lab confirms both fire ratings, the proof a specifier wants before putting the board on a protected route with confidence. |
| Fire Testing | Complete unit | Passed as the whole finished board rather than one layer at a time, so the rating covers the item that goes on the wall, not a single part of it. |
| Environment | Indoor use | Intended for indoor corridors, foyers and wards, and kept clear of the damp and weather that would work into felt and ruin it in time. |
| Ideal Locations | Corridors, stairwells, escape routes | Made for the busy, fire-sensitive walls of offices, reception, hospitals and councils that want a composed board plainly on show. |

Frequently Asked Questions About This Large Fire-Rated Noticeboard
Q: Which large fire-rated noticeboard is best for a professional office or reception wall?
A: The best large fire-rated noticeboard for a professional office or reception is the NB7309B, an unframed blue felt board of 900mm x 1200mm that meets BS 476 Class 0 and, in the European system, EN 13501-1 Class B-s1 d0. The cool tone keeps a wall composed, the felt takes pins and Velcro, and the board hangs either way round in a compliant, high-traffic setting.
Q: What fire rating does this blue board carry?
A: The board holds a BS 476 Class 0 rating and, in the European system, a BS EN 13501-1:2002 Class B-s1 d0 one, both applied to the finished item and not to one component. Because the whole board is proven rather than a single layer, it can be specified for a corridor, stairwell or escape route with confidence.
Q: Why choose a blue board for an office or clinic?
A: Blue reads as calm and professional. Its cool, corporate tone keeps a large display composed rather than urgent, so an office, reception or clinic wall looks considered instead of cluttered. The certified felt still meets the fire rules a shared route sets, so a professional look and compliance arrive together on the one board.
Q: Can I fix notices with Velcro or only with pins?
A: Both work on this felt board. Push pins press into the blue felt and Velcro-backed resources grip it just as well, so a heavier laminated sheet and a light paper flyer alike stay put and peel off cleanly. It gives you room to arrange and update an information board in whatever way a busy wall calls for.
Q: What does the frameless, edge-wrapped design offer?
A: The blue felt runs to the border with nothing framing it, so the display board sits flush to the wall and leaves little proud to catch a sleeve in a walkway. Panels can sit tight together as one broad run, and the borderless face keeps a clean, modern look that suits a corporate or clinical space.
Q: Can the wall board be mounted portrait or landscape?
A: Both ways up are fine. Hang it upright for a narrow wall or turn it wide for a low, broad one, to suit the space and what goes on it. The fixings come supplied, and although the board is light for its size, its width means a second person makes levelling the face easier as it is set.
Q: How does this blue board compare with the grey NB7309GY?
A: The two are the same unframed, fire-certified 900mm x 1200mm board and both take pins and Velcro, so tone decides. Blue reads cool and corporate, a fit for offices, reception and clinical walls. The grey NB7309GY is more neutral and recessive, disappearing into almost any decor where a quieter surface is wanted.
Q: How large and heavy is this bulletin board?
A: The board measures 900mm x 1200mm and weighs 13.6kg, a size made for the bigger walls of an office, corridor or foyer. That weight stays modest for the span, so one person can hang it, though the wide face is quicker to level with someone steadying the far side as the fixings go in.
Q: Is this noticeboard for indoor use only?
A: Yes, indoors only. Offices, corridors and clinics suit it, though it should be kept clear of anywhere damp or outdoor, where moisture would get into the felt and spoil it. Kept inside, the fire-rated blue surface stands up well to the daily handling of a busy building.
Q: How do you fix a board this wide to the wall?
A: The fixings needed are supplied, and the board beds flat onto a solid wall in minutes. One person can hold it level while a second drives the screws, in portrait or landscape. With no frame in the way, several boards line up edge to edge into a wider run with no seam showing between them.
Q: Can this board go in an escape route or stairwell?
A: Yes. It is rated to BS 476 Class 0, and separately to EN 13501-1 Class B-s1 d0, across the finished unit, so the board suits stairwells, escape routes and other fire-sensitive shared areas. Its composed blue keeps evacuation guidance plainly on show, and the certification satisfies the standards those routes demand.
Q: Does this noticeboard come in other sizes or colours?
A: Yes. The unframed fire-rated range starts at a compact board and rises past this size, and beside blue the certified felt is offered in red, green and grey. Should a crisp aluminium edge suit better than the borderless face, a matching framed fire version is stocked as well.
Choosing a Composed Fire-Resistant Board for an Office Wall
A board's colour, its fire testing and where it hangs all shape the right pick for an office, reception or clinical space, so a calm, certified surface is worth matching to the wall it will sit on. These Displaysense guides run through fire-resistant boards for schools, choosing a display board for offices, and picking the right board for a space.
