Fires and burns are the fifth leading cause of unintentional injury-related death among children ages 14 and under.*
As parents, you want to protect your child from any possible injury. Sleepwear made with Securest™ fabrics can help by considerably reducing the risk of injury due to fire. This is because its flame-retardant properties deter the garment from catching on fire as quickly as polyester or untreated cotton.
Until now, the choice of sleepwear available for your child that met US Consumer Product Safety Commission standards was limited to:
- Tight-fitting cotton , which doesn’t have flame-retardant properties, but relies on the tight-fitting design to reduce flame spread if garment catches fire.
- Polyester fabrics , which can be loose-fitting but pose an additional hazard – if ignited, they can form a dangerous sticky residue or leave a hole which flames can penetrate.
Now you have a new choice. Now your child can be safe and comfortable in loose-fitting cotton and cotton-mix garments made with Securest™ fabrics.
