Material advantage

The commercial world can be unforgiving on textiles often featured in hard-wearing, high-traffic areas. Durability, good looks and easy upkeep are all important material attributes but keeping staff and clients safe always comes at the top of the list.

From an architect's, designer's or specifier's point of view, FR-One materials offer a number of advantages.

The FR-One symbol ensures a fabric performs to the most stringent fire safety standards found across the globe. The materials have the latest flame-retardant technologies built in properties inherent to the fabric itself, not simply to the raw yarn. This ensures complete peace of mind in terms of public safety issues.

In addition, FR-One's far-reaching trade connections and extensive industry experience both contribute to the fabrics' cost-effectiveness.

However, fine fabrics in a commercial setting need a third stand-out quality besides safety and economy sheer design presence. The FR-One fabrics range from fine draperies to upholstery, all offered in diverse modern and classic textures, hues and patterns.

As well as being attractive and safe, FR-One's materials stand the test of time. All fabrics offer abrasion resistance, durability, colour fastness and washability.
