Flame Retardancy for Coated Textiles
Durable flame retardancy without compromising safety or compliance
Halogen-free, water-based flame retardancy solutions for coated textile applications under increasing regulatory pressure.
Fire safety requirements are not decreasing, but the chemistries used to achieve them are under increasing scrutiny. Textile manufacturers are expected to move away from halogenated and antimony-based systems, while still delivering consistent fire performance, durability and compliance across different applications.
The challenge
How do you maintain durable flame retardancy while regulations tighten and high-risk chemistries come under pressure?
The answer
A halogen-free, water-based flame retardancy platform designed to balance performance, compliance and safer production.
A System-Based Approach to Flame Retardancy
The Flame Retardency Concept helps textile coaters move away from high-risk FR chemistries without sacrificing fire performance, durability or process reliability.
By combining safer chemistries with application expertise, it delivers solutions that work in real production. Not just in theory.
This results in:
- More consistent fire performance across applications
- Reduced dependency on restricted chemistries
- Improved process reliability
- Lower development effort and fewer production trials
- Better alignment with current and future compliance requirements
Why Flame Retardancy Is More Complex Than It Seems
Flame retardancy is not a one-to-one substitution. Different coating systems, binders, fabric constructions and end-use requirements all influence the final fire performance.
What works in one setup may fail in another. Achieving reliable results requires more than selecting the right chemistry. It requires the right combination of chemistry, process and expertise.

Flame Retardancy Across Real Applications
The Flame Retardency Concept is designed for coated textile applications where fire safety, compliance and durability must go hand in hand:
- Public transport (bus, train, metro)
- Project and contract upholstery
- Tents and temporary structures
- Industrial and protective covers
- Roofing and construction textiles
- Hospitality and public interior textiles
Not just flame retardancy. A future-ready platform.
Regulations are evolving, while expectations around safety and sustainability continue to increase.
The Flame Retardency Concept brings these demands together in one coherent, future-proof platform, combining performance, compliance and safer chemistry choices.
Not one product. A system.
Flame retardancy today requires more than selecting the right chemistry.
It requires a system that balances fire performance, compliance and production reality across different applications and processes.
