Flame-retardant Trevira CS upholstery fabrics meet these important standards because they are made of fibers and yarns with built-in safety measures. Research into fire safety reveals that unsuitable textiles can be a serious factor in the spreading of fires. National and international standards regulate preventive fire safety. Flame-retardant Trevira CS upholstery fabrics meet these important standards because they are made of fibers and yarns with built-in safety measures.Trevira CS fabrics complies with worldwide fire safety regulations.Today, Trevira CS upholstery fabrics are used across the globe because they comply with fire safety regulations. They are also the first choice for those looking for outstanding upholstery fabric design. Fibers given an additional flame-protective finish (right) can lose this protection through regular wear, ageing or frequent washing. Flame-retardant Trevira fibers (left) are inherently flame retardant. Consequently, upholstery fabrics made from these fibers and filament yarns are permanently flame retardant. This is important from an ecological viewpoint, too. In addition to their environmentally friendly manufacturing process, upholstery fabric made from Trevira CS requires no further environmentally damaging fire-protection treatments, such as those required by traditionally combustible materials.Flame-retardant Trevira fibers and filaments are also certified to Oekotex 100 Standard. This means that in a fire they emit significantly lower levels of toxic fumes than other materials. This is particularly important as, in a fire, the danger of suffocation from smoke inhalation is greater than the risk of injury from flames.
