When it comes to setting the mood in a space—whether it’s a luxury hotel lobby, a restaurant lounge, or a performance stage—nothing commands attention quite like black velvet. It’s rich, timeless, and dramatic. But for professional interiors and public venues, beauty isn’t enough—you also need fire safety certification that meets Canadian building standards.
That’s where Equus Fabrics’ Fire Retardant (FR) Black Velvet comes in: the perfect fusion of elegance, performance, and compliance.
Our Black Velvet FR fabric offers a deep, plush texture that instantly elevates any environment. In hotels, it’s ideal for draperies, headboards, and wall panels—adding warmth, sound absorption, and luxury.
For restaurants, it enhances ambiance by reducing echo and creating a sense of intimacy, while remaining durable enough to withstand commercial use.
For theatres and event venues, this is the industry standard—a light-absorbing, rich-pile velvet that delivers perfect stage blackouts and meets CAN/ULC-S109 fire-safety regulations.
Inherently Fire Retardant (IFR): Unlike coated fabrics that lose protection after washing, ours is permanently FR, woven with fire-safe fibres.
Soft Hand & Deep Pile: Luxurious to the touch without stiffness.
Wide Widths: Up to 60″, perfect for large installations with fewer seams.
Custom Printing Available: Add your own logo, pattern, or tonal effect directly on velvet with Equus’ dye-sublimation technology.
Washable & Durable: Engineered for long-term commercial use without fading or shrinkage.
Made for Canadian Fire Codes: Certified to CAN/ULC standards for hotels, restaurants, and public spaces.
