is it fire retardant?

I think wool is naturally flame resistant. I don't think the blanket has a special chemical in it.

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.

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.

It's more firm than soft. No idea about the flame retardant but I doubt it since it is machine washable.

Not Sure about the fire retardant as well, and the topper did have a pleasant minty smell. So if your looking for one with no smell, this isn't the one for you. Also the minty smell didn't last long and we still the the comfort it added to our select aire. We would purchase again!

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

The only mention of flame retardant on the box says "Notice: this article meets the flammability requirements of California Bureau of Home Furnishings Technical Bulletin 117. Care should be exercised near open flame or with burning cigarettes."

No it's not fireproof. It's just sheet metal with some foam padding. There's no fire-proofing material of any sort.

Hi Kim. When I bought it, the info stated that it was. So I'm trusting that it is. It appears to be durable. But without having been in a fire, I can't say that I'm 100% sure. I hope that helped some.

I'm not sure if it's sprayed with fire retardant. Some reviewers complained about the minty smell stating it was too strong, but neither my wife nor I felt the smell was too strong, and the minty smell was gone in a few days. In fact I wish it would have lasted longer. We've almost had this mattress topper for 11 months now and we still love it and it's still very comfortable.

This product is not flame retardant (also apparent by the product tags). This is one of the prime reasons i purchased this product: I did not want to expose my child to flame retardant chemicals. I hope this helps. -TJ

I no longer have the packaging so I checked the tags on the curtain. They don't mention anything about flame retardants.

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

As of 2007, all mattress companies in the U.S. are required to use enough fire retardants to withstand a 2-foot wide blowtorch flame for 70 seconds. So, yes...it has fire retardants. Not sure which kind, as companies are not required to disclose this info.

Hello, We do apologize, the only information we have from the manufacturer is that this contains CA117 Fire Retardant Foam. If you need anything else, please let us know. Thank you.

Good question. I don't know. It is made of heavy material, so I would think that it would be at least fire retardant.
