Flame retardant made for delicate, lightweight fabrics

Flamex DF is a professional water-based flame retardant formulated for delicate and lightweight textiles — silk, chiffon and fine drapes. It reduces flammability while keeping the fabric’s natural appearance, softness and drape, where general retardants can stiffen or mark.
