∎ FR = Flame Retardant. Chemicals applied as spray. Short-lived treatment that must be renewed. (Typ of cotton velour)
Considerations for Fabric
“Putting it Together” Concert Hall Research Group 2014
∎ DFR= Durably Flame Retardant. Chemical treatments acid-infused into the fabric. Longer-lived, but not permanent. (Typ of wool serge)
∎ IFR= Inherently Flame Retardant. Fabric is certified “off the bolt,” but subject to environmental compromise in situ. (Typ of polyester velour)

Maintaining IFR Polyester Drapes
∎ Polyesters (petroleum product) designed to suppress and “run” from flame
∎ Build-up of dust and particulates encourages flame
∎ Drapes built NAP UP trap more dust
∎ Laundering drapes best maintains FR properties
∎ Shaking, beating and vacuuming helpful - but not foolproof
