This proves that textile floor coverings can be produced safely and without the need for additional chemicals to be used in order to achieve the required National and European fire regulations, providing the correct materials are selected for the correct construction in manufacture. In those cases where the use of flame retardants is needed to guarantee additional safety requirements only those substances that are not prohibited are allowed to be used.
