This draft Botswana Standard specifies the flammability performance requirements for upholstery fabrics.
NOTE 1 For the purpose of determining whether an upholstery fabric is able to provide protection against ignition, the fabric is tested in conjunction with a substrate of known flammability, such as standard non-flame-retardant polyether foam.
NOTE 2 The use of certain fabric combinations, trims, accessories and sewing threads that are not compatible can have an adverse effect on the flammability performance of upholstery fabrics or the finished item of furniture.
