What chemical do you use for a fire retardant? Thanks.

Hi Tina I apologize for the delay below is your answer: We use a premium fabric made with fire retardant inherent fibers. The fabric is woven with fiber glass fibers that are inherently fire resistant. No chemical is used to process the fabric. Please advise with any other questions or concerns.

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 would check out the standards at UL here: http://ul.com/. Amerex is a well respected brand in the fire safety business is all I can tell you.

Hi. I'm writing from Naturepedic. No, our products do not contain flame retardants or flame retardant barriers. Although we do pass (and sometimes are above and beyond) all Federal and State flammability standards. And, yes, newmom, you did see us on the Healthy Child Healthy World website. They recommend us.

Wool is a natural fire retardant. So no need for any fire retardant chemicals

I don't recall seeing any mention of flame retardants being applied to the foam.

From the company's website: "Our fire barrier is rayon cellulose fiber blended with fine-grained sand and a small amount of polyester which, in combination, are inherently fire resistant. Tested and verified by an accredited lab to fully comply with flammability standards."

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

I have no clue.... my use of the product was limited to fabrics. My suggestion would be to contact a Fire Marshall in your area, or to do a small test yourself. A company that produces stage settings for theatrical productions might also be able to answer this. Good luck!

That sounds like ammonia water would be better (or the liquid cleaner intended for fireplace glass doors), this product mixes the working elements by combustion, and if you've already disassembled the fire box closing it up and smoldering it would be ill advised.

Rubbing alcohol is what you use. 70% or 90% isopropyl alcohol works fine, and you can also find this at any grocery outlet. Getting a butane burner works the best and doesn't take as long to heat the water.

Thank you for your quick reply. I guess the fire marshals won't like that answer!

i emailed them because i was also curious - quick response from their team "Thanks for being interested in our products. L.A. Baby is committed to providing a safe and comfortable sleeping environment for everyone's little ones! In order to provide a non toxic and more chemical free fire barrier, as a fire barrier is required by law, we use the mineral compound boric acid. This compound is bonded to cotton in the comfort layers below the outer cover of the mattress, which in addition to having been proven safe over many centuries of use, is also an essential nutrient. Babies obtain this essential nutrient, and in the case of a nursing infant, from mom's diet of citrus intake of various fruits and juices. Because of the way our mattresses are made and the outer covering is constructed, they do not allow the release of boric acid into the air in a manner that anybody sleeping on it could absorb it though their lungs or skin."

I am wondering the same thing about the flammability. Did you ever find out the answer?
