Fire & Flame Retardant Fabrics

For flame retardant fabric that is designed to make a statement, you can rely on Panaz.

The hospitality, workplace, and healthcare industries in particular have extremely tight regulations when it comes to fire retardance — and with good reason. Every single piece of material has to comply with Crib 5 and be of the highest possible quality. Of course, style and versatility are also important, so it’s essential that a supplier can juggle all of these requirements at the same time. Thanks to decades of innovation and a commitment to quality, Panaz can do all of this and more.

Every one of our fire and flame retardant fabric is tested independently to ensure it complies with national and international standards, while also being fit for purpose. Not only that, but we work tirelessly to develop new and exciting designs that look stunning and are on-trend. The perfect combination of safety, style, and service is what we promise.

Going the Extra Mile

Adding a flame retardant layer to fabric can sometimes cause the material to look, feel, and behave differently — which can make it less versatile and reduce its aesthetic appeal. For a company like Panaz, which prides itself on creating beautiful fabrics that are also as robust as possible, this simply wasn’t good enough.

As a result, we developed a range of inherently flame retardant fabric that offers the same excellent levels of protection, without altering the feel or look of the material. In fact, almost everything we produce is inherently fire retardant, so you can be confident you’re always receiving the best.

The Trendsetter in Flame Retardant Fabrics

Ever the innovator, Panaz is proud of our status as the first textile company in the UK to weave with Trevira CS yarns. It’s something we’ve done since the very beginning and continue to do to this very day. Where we lead, others follow.

What makes Trevira CS fibres and yarns so special is the fact that they’re permanently flame retardant. This is different to conventional fabrics, which receive a surface treatment during the production process.

Working with flame retardant materials from the outset enables us to produce beautiful fabrics that offer extremely high levels of safety without compromising on comfort — so you can enjoy the best of both worlds.

Panaz are proud to be the very first textile business in the UK to weave with Trevira CS yarns at the initial outset, and still do to this day.

A Real Passion Project

Panaz doesn’t just supply flame retardant fabric because we have to, but also because we believe it’s the right thing to do. We’re passionate about the subject and are dedicated to raising awareness, while also developing new technologies to help.

In addition, we’ve sponsored fire retardancy seminars that included an eminent panel of former firefighters and people involved in the Grenfell Tower review. We believe in safety.
