How does the velvet fabric for sofa upholstery for children be certified for safety?

When selecting velvet fabric for sofa upholstery intended for use by children, it's crucial to prioritize safety. To ensure that the fabric meets safety standards, you should look for safety certifications and consider the following aspects:
1. Fire Resistance: Upholstery fabrics, including velvet, should meet fire safety standards. In the United States, one common standard is CAL 117 (California Technical Bulletin 117), which outlines requirements for flame resistance. Look for fabrics that comply with CAL 117 or similar standards in your region.
2. Toxic Substances: Check if the fabric has been tested and certified to be free of harmful substances. One widely recognized certification in this regard is OEKO-TEX Standard 100. This certification tests for the presence of a wide range of harmful chemicals in textiles.
3. Durability: Children can be tough on furniture. Choose velvet fabric with a high abrasion resistance rating, often measured in Martindale or Wyzenbeek rubs. Higher rub counts indicate greater durability and longevity.
4. Easy Cleaning: Opt for velvet fabric that is easy to clean and resistant to stains. Fabrics treated with stain-repellent finishes can be a good choice, as they make spills easier to clean and maintain.
5. Tear Resistance: Consider the fabric's resistance to tearing or snagging, as children may accidentally cause damage during play.

6. Colorfastness: Ensure that the fabric has good colorfastness, meaning it doesn't fade easily when exposed to light. This is important to maintain the fabric's appearance over time.
7. Anti-Pilling: Fabrics that resist pilling (the formation of small, fuzzy balls on the surface) can be advantageous, as they will look better for longer.
8. Certification Documentation: Request documentation from the manufacturer or retailer confirming that the fabric has been tested and complies with relevant safety standards, such as fire resistance and harmful substance testing.
9. Safety Labels: Look for labels on the fabric or upholstery indicating compliance with safety standards. In some regions, these labels are required for certain types of furniture.
Remember that while the fabric itself plays a significant role in safety, the overall safety of a sofa for children also depends on factors like the sofa's design, construction, and stability. Ensuring that the entire piece of furniture is safe for children is paramount.
