What You Need to Know About Flame-Resistant Hospital Curtains

If you manage a healthcare setting, you probably already know how important having the right supplies can be for the success of your business. That means more than just having the medical supplies to treat patients, as important as that can be. It also means having the equipment you need to meet fire and safety regulations, so your facility is safe for both workers and patients.

Flame Retardant Curtains

One of the key ways you can accomplish this is through the use of fire resistant and fireproof materials that comply with the NFPA 701 standard. This standard certifies that the textiles are:

  • Ignition resistant even after extended exposure
  • An after flame that lasts less than 2 seconds
  • A char length of less than 6.5 inches

These keys help to demonstrate that textiles like your curtains are fire resistant enough to help support other hospital fire suppression systems as needed. The result is a safer environment for everyone.
