The safety of ready-to-wear garments is always at the forefront of our minds. The combustion test performed in accordance with TS EN 1103 standard measures the burning rate and flame spread properties of apparel fabrics in detail. This test is a critical step for the production of safe clothing products by determining how resistant the fabrics are to fire hazards.
TS EN 1103 Standard and Combustion Property of Ready-to-Wear Fabrics
TS EN 1103 is a European standard for determining the fire resistance of garment fabrics. This test measures how fabrics behave when exposed to fire, the rate of combustion and the rate at which the flame spreads over the fabric. Fabrics are evaluated by this test to check whether they meet all the requirements for safety.
Purpose of the Burning Property Test
The combustion property test is performed to determine the rate at which fabrics burn and how the flame spreads across the fabric surface. The purpose of this test is to analyze how apparel fabrics behave during a fire. The data obtained from the test is used to check that the fabrics comply with safety standards.
Test Procedure and Process
The procedure followed to determine the combustibility of garment fabrics is quite detailed. In this process, fabrics are placed in a special test device and exposed to various sources of fire. The speed at which the flame spreads over the fabric and the burning time are measured. The rapid ignition and spread of the fabric can pose serious risks in the event of a potential fire. Therefore, thorough testing is crucial to ensure safe products.

Fabric Types to be Tested
TS EN 1103 test can be applied to different types of fabrics. The combustion properties of different materials such as cotton, synthetic, blended fabrics and similar materials are tested. Since each type of fabric shows different properties, the combustion behavior of each is examined in detail.
Compliance with Legal Requirements and Standards
The safety of garment products is important to fulfill legal requirements. Compliance with the TS EN 1103 standard certifies that products are safe against fire. By successfully passing this test, manufacturers can demonstrate that their products are fire resistant and offer safe products that can be offered for sale on the European market.
CE Approval and Product Certification
Fabrics that successfully pass the TS EN 1103 test can receive CE approval and are certified as safe. The CE marking shows that the product is compliant with the European Union and gains the trust of users. This also allows products to be legally available for sale.
Application of Test Results
Test results can be used by manufacturers to prove compliance with legal requirements and demonstrate that they offer safe products. In addition, the tests are very important for certifying the safety of products against fire. By referencing the test results, manufacturers can certify the quality and safety of their products.
