Waterproof FR Pillow Protector: BS 7175 Source 5, Wipe Clean, UK Made
This waterproof pillow protector is flame retardant, certified to BS 7175 Source 5. It is made in the UK from a polypropylene fabric with an Aqua Shield Plus finish and wipes clean. Packs run from 2 to 100.
A care home or hospital has to prove the pillow is protected as well as the bed. A normal protector will not satisfy a fire risk assessment. This one is certified to BS 7175 Source 5 (Crib 5), a recognised flame retardant standard. Our guide to BS 7175 flame retardant bedding explains what care homes, hotels and hospitals need to know.
It is waterproof and made in the UK from a polypropylene synthetic fabric with a Daltex Aqua Shield Plus finish. The surface wipes clean, which suits settings where infection control comes first. It has a green tint.
Packs are 2, 5, 10, 50 and 100. Dimensions are not listed on the product page, so confirm the size you need before ordering.
