The Green Approach- NFPA

Shade Works offer a full line of flame resistant fabrics that meet the requirements of NFPA 701. These requirements outline rigid standards for fire testing and flame propagation of household textiles and films including curtains, window shades, drapery, table linens and textile wall hangings.
