BEGOODTEX Permanent Flame Retardant Blackout Fabric is a high-performance material that offers exceptional blackout and flame-retardant properties. Its unique construction features two layers of intrinsic flame-retardant polyester yarn with a layer of black shading silk in the middle, providing a multi-functional solution.

This fabric is not only soft and comfortable but also affordable and available in a wide variety of styles. Thanks to its permanent flame-retardant characteristics, it creates a comfortable and quiet environment while meeting stringent fire safety standards.

Key Features and Advantages

• 95% Blackout Rate: The fabric’s three-layer structure—two outer layers of flame-retardant polyester and a central layer of black silk—delivers an impressive 95% blackout effect, effectively blocking most light.
• Permanent Flame Retardancy: The fabric’s fire-resistant properties are achieved by combining BEGOODTEX permanent flame-retardant yarn with black shading silk. This process transforms a standard blackout fabric into a fire-resistant one that is soft to the touch and effective at stopping the spread of fire. It has passed flame-retardant standards in multiple countries, including the UK, USA, and France.
• Multi-functional: In addition to blackout and flame retardancy, the fabric is also UV-resistant and soundproof, enhancing its practical value.
