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.
