Understanding the basics of FR fabrics

In a world filled with potential hazards, ensuring safety should always be a top priority. When it comes to interior spaces, one vital aspect often overlooked is fire safety. FR-One Fire Retardant Fabrics is the number one choice for procurers, interior designers and architects around the world demanding a guarantee that the fabric they are buying meets their required Flame-Retardant standard.

Because of the incredible performance and quality aspects of fire-retardant fabrics, they might seem like something out of a sci-fi movie. Fortunately, they’re widely available and in use in various spaces such as healthcare facilities, hotels, offices, and even family homes. This often sparks questions around FR fabrics and why we have them in interior décor. So, let’s throw open the windows to the world of textiles and help shed some light on these performance fabrics.

The finishing touches that enrich our performance fabrics

The fire-retardant properties of our fabrics are inherent, meaning that they are already embedded deep into the structure of the yarn before the textiles ever meet the end stages of manufacturing.

These final steps, however, are still an important part of our fabrics’ production process. It’s in this completion stage that we add even more high-quality value to the rock-solid performance of our fabrics.

Today we look at what steps taken during this final manufacturing phase mean for FR-One fabrics.
