Fire Retardant Curtains – Safety Meets Design
Flame Retardant Curtains
Design without compromise. Safety by design.
Our flame-retardant curtain collection is engineered for spaces where safety matters — without sacrificing softness, drape or visual calm. Developed for both private homes and commercial interiors, these curtains combine architectural performance with the refined textile language ZigZagZurich is known for.
We work exclusively with inherently flame-retardant yarns, not surface-treated fabrics, ensuring long-term safety, durability and peace of mind.
Why Trevira CS® and Inherently Flame-Retardant Yarns
Unlike chemically treated textiles, Trevira CS® and other inherently FR yarns are flame retardant by their very nature — the protection is built into the fibre itself.
What this means in practice:
Permanent flame retardancy – does not wash out, fade or degrade over time
-
No chemical coatings – safer for indoor air quality and everyday living
-
Soft hand feel & elegant drape – looks and feels like a premium interior fabric
-
Highly durable – ideal for heavy use and large installations
Because the flame-retardant property is woven into the yarn, the fabric remains safe for the entire life of the curtain.

While often used interchangeably, there's a key distinction. Fire retardant curtains (or flame retardant curtains) are made from fabric that is chemically treated or inherently woven to resist ignition and slow the spread of flames. Fireproof curtains are typically made from non-combustible materials like fiberglass and are used in industrial settings. Our collection focuses on design-led, fire resistant curtains for homes and businesses.
Certified fire rated curtains will have a label or documentation stating their compliance with specific safety standards (e.g., NFPA 701, BS 5867). All ZigZagZurich fire retardant drapes are rigorously tested and certified, with this information available on the product page.
Absolutely. Our curtains are engineered to meet strict international fire codes, making them ideal for hotels, restaurants, offices, schools, and other public spaces where safety is paramount. The inherent flame resistance ensures they remain compliant for their entire lifespan.
No. Because our curtains are made with inherently flame resistant fibers, the safety properties are part of the yarn itself and will not wash out or diminish over time. This offers a significant advantage over fabrics that are chemically treated after production.
All curtains meet NFPA (USA), EN and BS (Europe/UK), plus B1 and M1 classifications for public buildings.
