Domestic Upholstery.

Nanoflam produces a range of backcoatings for application by any method suitable for the fabric including foam, paste, roller, screen or spray method to meet the requirements of the UK’s Furniture and Furnishings (Fire) (Safety) Regulations 1988. The majority of products are based on the traditional Antimony trioxide/bromine donor chemistry but increasingly customers are asking for halogen free versions of coatings and in response Nanoflam have developed a range of halogen free backcoatings which can be used to treat upholstery fabrics based on cellulosic, synthetic and blends of fibres to meet FR demands.

Contract Upholstery.

Nanoflam produces coating products/systems for application to contract upholstery fabrics. Most commonly to meet the requirements of BS7176, medium hazard (cigarette, match and crib 5) testing but also for other levels of performance depending on the end use of the furniture. Nanoflam FR coating for contract upholstery can be used in conjunction with a laminated film or an acrylic paste coating to give enhanced hydrostatic head performance as well.

White halogen-free coatings

Halogen Free products.

Nanoflam has developed a range of halogen free upholstery FR backcoatings. There are 2 types of halogen free formulations based on phosphorus chemistry, one of which is based on encapsulated red phosphorus and consequently the compound has a red colour, the second is white. The white product works well on fabrics with a high cellulosic content although it also works on some blends and the red product is more suitable for synthetic fabrics and blends. Both products meet the strict demands of manufacturers restricted substances lists (MRSLs) currently required by some end users.
