Healthier Fire Retardancy Without Harmful Chemicals
Unlike conventional fire retardant coatings that contain hazardous chemicals, Renegade Plastics has developed a revolutionary zero-PVC flame retardant coated fabric.

Notably, Renegade’s PVC-free fabrics can be easily recycled by most plastics recyclers and maintain their integrity when cleaned with strong cleansers like bleach and acetone, thanks to the durable fabric coating. Third-party labs have verified the recyclability of the material.
