Fire-retardant fabrics refer to the type of textiles that are designed to resist ignition and slow the spread of fire. Fabrics of this category are often considered for improved safety in many applications. They may either be inherently fire-retardant or treated with flame-retardant chemicals. Both options can provide protection against heat and flame damage.
