Are there any fire retardants used in this chair?

The seat liner states that it meets all flammability requirements for California Bureau of Home Furnishings Technical Bulletins 117. And "Care should be exercised near open flame or with burning cigarettes".

I doubt it. The fabric seat cover is easily removed and washed (about 100 times for me so far). I don't think fire retardants would stand up to that.

I did not see any info where it contained flame retardants. It is 100% polyester... Used to refill doggie beds where the original material had mashed flat. Still supportive and being enjoyed by my dogs after a year+. I have an additional box that I will use to give new life to flattened decorative pillows.

There really isn't a seat pad. It's just a hard particle board with a little bit of cotton under the seat cover. Don't know about being flame retardant... it doesn't say anywhere on the chair that it is... The pink cover part is really easy to clean! I'm not sure what the material is called, but it feels like the same stuff life jackets are made with. I hope that helps. lol

Hi Scott, The 1000 kit is only available as fire retardant. Therl R-value is 4/inch.

Fire retardants are so commonly used in furnishings that I'd suggest asking the manufacturer to be sure. If chemicals are present, with more and more people concerned about chemical exposure, they may not note it on the packaging lest it reduce sales. I subsequently found this answer in this thread: "I emailed Luna, who responded with this quote 'Our protectors are not treated with anything at all.'"

I am not sure if there is a fire retardant or not, but if you call the company, they will answer any questions you may have. I called them many times before I bought my mattress. I have had it over a year now and I am very happy with it. http://www.lucidmattress.com

Check out http://www.davincibaby.com/willow-natural-coconut-palm-crib-mattress and hover your mouse over the 'Meets Federal Flammability Standard CFR-1633'. They explain that the mattress does not contain any flame retardant materials, but use a thin layer of cotton-like material (possibly with Dupont chemicals) that do not contact the user and they use Kevlar thread to make the mattress, which is flame resistant. I did notice a slight odor when I removed it from the plastic wrapper, but aired it for several months before baby arrived and the slight smell was long gone. Good luck with your purchase- we have just flipped this one to the toddler side and I am still very happy with the purchase.

It has a fire retardant treatment, but as we know once fire gets on it everything burns. It's a heavy tent and I have enjoyed it for our homecoming tailgating for 100 hungry old team mates. When you set it up people will be amazed by the size

Hello We do not add any flame-retardants to our Roma or Naturale mattresses. In the Roma, we use Rayon as a natural fire-barrier. In the Naturale, we use the wool as a natural fire-barrier. Thank you kindly, have a terrific day! SleepEZ

No, it does not contain a flame retardant. A mattress company that uses talalay latex does not recommend using a natural foam mattress topper because it's so flammable: "...you might as well put gasoline on the top of your mattress..." (My research shows that P. Thornton is correct in saying that polyurethane is extremely flammable, as is memory foam, but I believe the statement that natural Latex is not flammable is incorrect.) When used in the interior of a mattress and surrounded by wool or natural cotton, natural latex is much less likely to burn. However, if you smoke in bed or have lit candles on the nightstand, it would NOT be a good idea to use a talalay topper. On the other hand, if you don't smoke in bed and keep lit candles a safe distance from the bed, by all means use natural latex as a topper.

No. This tent does not have flame retardants. I think it's one of the only ones I've seen that does not. My son has this and it's great.

I do not believe that it is flame retardant. It does not state it. Hope this helps.

I did not apply any flame retardant to this. I believe it is in the material. I love this thing! It has saved our daughter from some pretty scary falls! We were considering just moving our coffee table until I found this! Hope this helps. :)

I'm thinking it's the law. Anything that is intended for children to sleep in has to have fire retardants....From the tag: "This article meets all flammability requirements of the California Bureau of Home Furnishing bulletin 116 and 117." An additional tag says, "Only the resilient filling material meets (these requirements)" and both caution against using near fires and cigarettes.

I cannot technically answer that, but I will tell you my five-year-old grandson took a barbeque lighter and tried to set it on fire in two spots. Thankfully, it only smoldered and made two holes (not all the way through) in the fabric, so I would guess it fortunately has some flame retardant.

Hi, I'm very sorry it took me so long to get back to you, but I am not sure if the tent is fire retardant. I'm sure you could contact the company and could answer that if you haven't already.
