Define the intended product
Tell the supplier whether the fabric will be fabricated into a curtain, screen, cover or another component. The construction should be reviewed for handling, seam design, cleaning, movement and exposure.
Record the specification
Include substrate, weave, base weight, finished weight, thickness, coating sides, width, roll length and color. If the requirement comes from a code or customer specification, provide the exact reference.
Confirm evidence
A coating name does not establish a fire or smoke rating. Match the test report and its sample scope to the construction and finished assembly required by the project.
Frequently asked questions
Does acrylic coating guarantee smoke-curtain compliance?
No. Compliance depends on the exact construction, test method, report scope and requirements for the finished curtain system.
