Mamemakers Warn About Inflammable Fabrics Safety
Consumer protection for flammable fabrics exists since 1953 with the Flammable Fabrics Act and an amended provision to raise standards. The new rule gives the Secretary of Commerce power to update rules for risky fabrics, but full protection will take time. “Nonflammable” does not mean fireproof as fabrics may still burn or char. Fiber type alone cannot predict flammability. blends and finishes alter risk. Consumers should read labels, understand flame resistance, and practice fire prevention.
