If you're making blankets using our fabric, then you need to make it safely.
The primary concern is fire resistance. There are many standards that apply to blankets:
| Standard | Description |
|---|---|
| EN ISO 6941:2003 | Textile fabrics — Burning behaviour — Measurement of flame spread properties of vertically oriented specimens |
| EN ISO 12952-1:2010 | Textiles — Assessment of the ignitability of bedding items - Part 1: Ignition source: smouldering cigarette |
| EN ISO 12952-2:2010 | Textiles — Assessment of the ignitability of bedding items - Part 2: Ignition source: match-flame equivalent |
And please note this list is not exhaustive - every country has its own regulations and some may be stricter or more relaxed than shown here.
Also, the requirements largely depend on where your item will be used. Furnishings destined for home use have much more relaxed requirements than those intended for use in a school or hospital, for example.
You should make sure that this fabric meets your specific requirements for fire safety when making your end product, whether it is for sale or not.
You can use our FR standards as a guideline, but it is important that you understand the different standards and to which situations they are applicable.
If in doubt, contact FIRA for advice in the UK about fire safety for furniture.
