Fire-resistant,
low smoke CR SAFGUARD was developed specifically
for use in institutions vulnerable to vandalism,
arson and accidental ignition. Jails, prisons
and juvenile detention centers are excellent examples
of high-risk institutions which receive maximum
benefits from the use of CR SAFGUARD cushioning.
CR
SAFGUARD will not support combustion when
exposed to substantial, open flame ignition sources.
In full-scale, "real world" burn
testing, CR SAFGUARD displays extremely
low levels of smoke generation.

"When
we compared the fire-resistance and durability
of several different correctional mattresses,
there was no comparison... CR SAFGAURD was
the obvious choice..."

Unlike
fiber-type mattresses (F.R. densified polyester
or F.R. boric acid treated cotton), CR
SAFGUARD experiences minimum thickness loss
in the areas subjected to the majority of the
user's body weight. This is important for several
reasons:
- When
a mattress exhibits a loss in thickness (as
seen with fiber type mattresses), service
life is reduced and replacement purchases must
be made more frequently…making the original
"less expensive" mattress quickly escalate in
long term cost;
- Mattresses that are comfortable and retain
their original shape will experience less vandalism,
thus greatly increasing mattress service life
|
Increased
Numbers of Correctional Facilities are switching
to CR SAFGUARD. Why?
|
- "Real
World" Usage HAs demonstrated an
in-service life two to three times that
of fiber type mattresses
Contraband search is quick, thorough and
efficient, with concealment of illegal
items virtually impossible
- Fire
resistant Characteristics remain consistent
over the life of the matteress
- Provides
lowest long-term cost per inmate

In
addition, the benefits of purchasing CR
SAFGUARD for your institution far outweigh
the reasons for purchasing an alternate
mattress product:
- Excellent
flammability characteristics, even when
subjected to severe "real world" conditions
- Durability,
comfort and minimum thickness loss
- Long
lasting, cost effective performance…offers
the lowest long-term cost per inmate to
your institution
- Easily
searched for contraband
Many
detention facilities are currently using
a CR SAFGUARD mattress construction. Call
for complete performance specifications
which can immediately be used for procurement
purposes!
