PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
VS Fire Retardant (FR) Fabric Coating is a fire retardant coating especially designed to provide fire retardancy to cotton fabric/material. It is a water based clear solution that gets applied onto dry cotton fabric by dipping the fabric in the VS FR Fabric Coating and letting it drip dry. The fire retardant coating gets absorbed by the cotton textile fibres when dipped into the coating solution. When dried, the water content gets evaporated. The additives get deposited on the surface of the fabric thereby making it fire retardant.
When dip treated, the cotton fabric gains fire retardant properties. The necessary original properties of the fabric like its ‘looks’, ‘colour’ and ‘touch_ feel’ are not compromised in this process. The product can be used for other cellulosic absorbent fibres like jute fabric, coir fabric or other similar woven cellulosic water absorbent textile materials. VS FR Fabric Coating works on all types of cotton fibre textiles and weaving patterns.
In the event of fire, the VS FR Fabric Coating converts the fabric into black char, but does not allow it to catch flames. The coating is washable to assist cleaning of the fabric whenever required and can be recoated to make the fabric fire retardant again by the dip and drip dry method.
VS FR Fabric Coating is tested as per IS11871 (1996).
