Combustible materials that are not built into a structure, typically referred to as "contents," represent one of the most concerning elements of a total fire and life safety program.  This is because the evolution in the materials used to create  interior furnishings and other contents has increased both the potential for a fire to ignite and the fuel that these items contribute to the rapid expansion of a structure fire once it has begun.  This leads to the increased need for what fire safety professionals most commonly refer to as proactive fire safety.  Much like having an exit plan, proactive fire safety also includes protecting your interior furnishing from the spread of flame, giving occupants the ability to exit the structure and first responders the opportunity to manage or extinguish a fire, to save lives and to protect a properties valuable contents.  Strict standards have been put in place by agencies such as the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and State Fire Marshals offices to help safeguard occupants.  No-Burn® Fabric Fire Gard plays a significant role in accomplishing the objectives of these parties.
