Our certificates
We have tested and certified ALL our XMF flame retardant fabrics. Each of our FR-fabric has at least ISO 11612 (Protection from heat and flame) or ISO 11611(Welders protection from heat and flame) certificate. Most of XMF FR-fabrics have also been certified for Multi-Risk protection and have EN 1149 (Antistatic properties) and/or ISO 13034 (Protection from liquid chemicals), EN 61482 (Protection from Electric Arc).
As we sell our flame retardant fabrics not only in Europe but all over the world, then we made also tests and certification according to NFPA 2112 (Flame resistant garments) and ASTM F1959/NFPA 70E (Arc Flash testing) for several of our FR-fabrics.
We believe that certification in independent testing labs is a must have for FR-fabrics. XM FireLine cares about Proven Protection of XMF fabrics and has ALL the certificates open and easy to download from our site.

XM Textiles™ has developed and used the following three stages quality control system for workwear fabrics:
The 1-st stage includes control of early steps of workwear fabric production, namely:
1.1 Greige fabric examination
1.2 Inspection the colour of the fabric after dyeing and its additional finishes (like WR, Oil-proof etc.)
At the 2-nd stage, XM Textiles™ examines the finished workwear fabric. According to common standards, our experts inspect not less than 10% of total production lots.
XM Textiles applies the “Ten Points” method of fabric quality control (QC), which is similar to the American system “Four Points”.Our QC-managers assigns a certain amount of points to each defect according to its kind and size. After that, we calculate the total amount of points per roll and conclude its quality.
At the 3-d stage samples of workwear fabric are tested in our lab according to ISO standards. We have modern equipment and use it to test the following parameters:
Shrinkage Colour fastness to washing, wet and dry rubbing Tearing strength Tensile strength Colour matchingColour fastness to light
Formaldehyde content
AZO content
Shrinkage of workwear fabric for industrial washes (ISO 15797) etc.
Beside this Quality Control System (QCS), in 2015 our workwear fabrics have been certified to Oekotex Standard 100 by Testex AG (Switzerland). Since then, Testex AG has been testing our fabrics and renewing Oekotex-100 certificate every year. You can look at our last Oekotex certificate on this page.
We are focused on delivering workwear fabric to our clients, which is safe to wear and free from harmful substances. We also think that the OEKO-TEX® certificate is a must-have for all eco-conscious workwear manufactures.
