"With more than 22 million mattresses sold nationwide, the new federal bed safety standards have created a tremendous opportunity for the nonwovens industry unlike any other we've seen in the past," said Rick Pearce, senior director of PGI.
"We are offering a high-performance FR product that assures quality and helps mattress manufacturers of all sizes meet the new regulations. Through our supply chain partnership with Hanes, we are able to deliver FR fabrics to the market in the quickest and most efficient manner, meeting this real-time need."
PGI is working on development of the next generation of the fabrics to add even greater performance characteristics, and to meet any future requirements for bedding, upholstery and other home furnishings applications.
