FlameGard® - Beautiful Backdrop with Fire Retardant
We received this beautiful sequinned fabric that is perfect for the holidays. It is being used as a backdrop at a school, and it needed to meet special fire codes. This beautiful fabric is so versatile and a staple for holiday backdrops. Since this backdrop is set up at a school, there are special fire codes that have to be met before installing it where it is going to be displayed.
