FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

Flame retardant bedding refers to bedding items that are treated with flame-retardant chemicals to reduce their flammability and slow down the spread of fire in case of a fire hazard. Flame retardant bedding is important for hotels, hospitals, care homes, and other public spaces to comply with fire safety regulations and protect people from potential harm. Direct Fabrics offers a wide range of flame retardant bedding options, including duvets, pillows, mattress protectors, and bedspreads, all of which are compliant with the British and European fire safety standards.

Flame retardancy is achieved in bedding products by treating them with a flame-retardant chemical during the manufacturing process. The most commonly used flame retardant chemicals are brominated or phosphorous-based compounds, which can be applied to the fabric as a coating, impregnation, or as part of the fiber matrix. Direct Fabrics uses certified and tested flame retardant chemicals in their bedding products to ensure that they meet the necessary fire safety standards and regulations.
