Globally a considerable number of residential fires can be traced to mattresses and bedding, causing deaths, severe injuries and property damage. Ignited by a cigarette butt or a small piece of paper by a young child- some of the commonest causes of domestic fires, they engulf not only the mattress and bedding but also other combustibles.
In the wake of renewed global interest in lobbying for fire safety measures, Richard Pieris Natural Foams Ltd has addressed the issue by designing a Flame Retardant Mattress which conforms to BS and EU Standards. The tests carried out by SATRA Technology Centre have confirmed that Richard Pieris Natural Foam mattresses meet the requirements stipulated in Schedule I, Part III of the Furniture and Furnishings (Fire) (Safety) Regulations 1988 (amended in 1989 & 1993).
Arpico flame retardant mattresses which are fashioned adhering to the optimum safety standards, hence assure a safe sleeping experience.
