Fires inside buildings can be started by being ignited by smokers' materials, naked flames such as candles, or other sources of intense heat. A vertically suspended piece of material, flames can easily spread across a curtain.

The flammability of fabrics varies, some fabrics ignite easily while others do not. Fabrics that do not have inherent resistance to ignition can be chemically treated to resist ignition.

Fabrics treated in this way are often identified as FR, which stands for FR-treated Flame Retardant. FR treatment aims to increase the resistance to ignition and also to reduce the rate at which the flame spreads to a surface in case of ignition.
