It has been identified that the stitching used in the product is not fire resistant and may fail under developed fire conditions after approximately six minutes. Failure of the stitching could compromise the product’s ability to resist the passage of fire, allowing fire and hot gases to spread to adjacent areas and increasing the risk of injury to occupants in the event of a fire. The product has not been marketed as providing a specific fire resistance rating.
