Flame Retardant Furnishings From Care Home Furnishings

Care homes, nursing homes, respite care homes and an assortment of other care facilities are places where people go when they need a little extra help. No matter the reason that they are there, they now want to ensure that not only do they feel at home, but they also feel safe. Ensuring that your soft furnishing is flame retardant is another step in helping to achieve this.
While there should be limited risk of a fire breaking out in one of your resident’s rooms, there will always be a risk. The best way to alleviate this spreading is to ensure that materials that would typically fuel a fire are actually in place to stop this from happening. Meaning that they extinguish it at the source.

Flame Retardant Bedding

The first place to ensure that flame retardant materials are being used is the bedding. While we admit, not all flame retardant bedding is that attractive, it’s important to know how important it is. Should anything spark around the bedding, or even ignite, flame retardant bedding will simply smoulder out, rather than ignite.
Care home bed linen doesnt have to look clinical. Our collection includes a complete range of luxury duvet covers, fitted sheets, standard sheet all to not only health care standard, but also hotel standard.

Flame Retardant Curtains

Alongside bedding, curtains are another source of fuel that can keep a fire burning. Once ignited, they can carry fire both across and up a room, spreading the fire further than it may have gone. Flame retardant curtains can help to eliminate this risk by not igniting at source.
By using flame retardant curtain fabric we can create bespoke care home curtains that will help to keep your residents safe should a fire ignite.

Care Home Furniture

It’s not just the soft furnishings that need to be protected from fires, it also includes the solid furniture in the room. While the range of care home furniture that we offer isnt completely flame retardant, we aim to use materials that will not easily ignite. This offers enough time for residents to be evacuated
