FR-One - Safety

Standard : British BS 5867 part 2 type B and C Curtains (drapery)

A flame is applied to a vertically oriented textile fabric to determine the fire behaviour.

A test specimen is oriented vertically on a specimen holder. A small flame is applied to the face of the specimen.

For type B the ease of ignition is observed, also if the flame reaches one of the edges of the specimen and if any flaming debris falls down.

For type C also afterflame time and afterglow time have to be measured.

Note: For type B the fabric has to be tested after laundering, for type C before and after laundering.

The test material is judged by the observed characteristics.
