This fabric collection is engineered to resist ignition and slow the spread of flame, a critical requirement for contract and public-space seating. Flame retardancy is achieved either through the use of inherently fire-resistant fibers or through the application of a certified FR chemical compound coating to the textile's reverse side. All materials are supported by valid, traceable certification documentation.

Safety Compliant Upholstery Solutions

Supplying textiles for the contract market in the US and Europe necessitates strict adherence to flammability safety standards. Our flame retardant (FR) sofa fabrics provide the required protection without compromising the aesthetic appeal or physical durability demanded by furniture manufacturers.

SUZHOU YIFAN TEXTILE CO., LTD. incorporates FR compliance into the manufacturing phase, utilizing specialized FR yarn development and compound finishing. We ensure that our output from our weaving and finishing lines meets the exacting certification requirements of each major market, providing a responsible and reliable source for safety-compliant fabrics.

Mandatory Safety Environments

  • Contract Furniture: Office lobbies, reception areas, and public waiting rooms where safety regulations are mandatory.

  • Hospitality: Hotel bedrooms, suites, and common areas in the US and EU markets requiring specific FR standards.

  • Institutional Seating: Healthcare, senior living, and educational facilities where materials must withstand rigorous cleaning and pass fire codes.

  • Marine/Transport: Specialized seating in cruise ships or other public transport requiring IMO (International Maritime Organization) compliance.

Certified Performance and Reliability

  • Traceable Compliance: Every production batch receives documentation verifying compliance with the specified FR standard (e.g., California, British, or French standards).

  • Dual FR Methods: Offers both inherently FR fabrics (where the FR property is built into the fiber) and treated fabrics, providing flexibility based on project cost and durability needs.

  • Aesthetic Flexibility: The FR treatment is designed to minimize alteration to the fabric's color, hand-feel, and drape, ensuring design integrity is maintained.

  • Long-Term Stability: For treated fabrics, the FR compound is chemically bonded to the textile to ensure the performance remains effective throughout the fabric's lifespan and cleaning cycles.

Common Buyer Inquiries

  • Q: Is a chemical treatment permanent?

  • A: For our treated FR fabrics, the process involves a durable, proprietary coating that is engineered to resist degradation under normal use and recommended cleaning cycles, providing long-term effectiveness.

  • Q: What is the difference between inherent and treated FR fabrics?

  • A: Inherent FR fabrics are made from fibers (like modacrylic or specific polyesters) that naturally resist burning. Treated FR fabrics use a standard base cloth with a specialized fire-resistant chemical coating applied to the back.

  • Q: Can you provide the certification test reports for the fabric?

  • A: Yes, all FR fabrics are supplied with a declaration of conformity and, upon request, copies of the accredited third-party laboratory test reports correlating to the required standard.

Guide to Material Specification

Specifying FR materials requires clarity on the regulatory target:

  • Market Compliance: Identify the specific fire code required (e.g., US market requires TB 117-2013; UK contract often requires Source 5).

  • Fiber Choice: Inherently FR fibers are preferable for heavy-duty washing or environments where abrasion might damage a back coating.

  • Aesthetic Impact: Back coatings can sometimes add stiffness to the hand-feel, which may influence the choice for softer, draped applications.
