Traditional flame retardants have increasingly come under scrutiny for being toxic to humans. Yet to protect the wearer from the unexpected, flame retardants are a necessary ingredient in synthetic hair.

Nofia halogen free polymeric flame retardants have the most favorable toxicological profiles, and unlike competitive liquid and powder-based flame retardants that both tend to migrate out of the plastic over time, Nofia flame retardants stay locked into their host product and will not migrate out.

​

Nofia FRs’ unique, non-toxic and high-performance properties are helping manufacturers to revolutionize the synthetic hair industry.
