Standard for the Flammability (Open Flame) of Mattress Sets
16 CFR Part 1633
Physical law label inspection and flame barrier audit of The WinkBed hybrid mattress verifying fiberglass-free construction.
The WinkBed mattress does not contain fiberglass or synthetic glass fiber yarn. Physical law label inspection confirms WinkBeds uses an inherently flame-resistant cellulosic viscose-rayon barrier infused with hydrated silica. Under CPSC 16 CFR Part 1633 calorimeter burn testing, the hydrated silica vitrifies into a non-toxic glass-ceramic matrix that extinguishes flame propagation without releasing crystalline mineral fibers.
Fire barrier consists of hydrated silica infused directly into viscose-rayon cellulose.
Zero glass fibers, continuous-filament glass, or chemical fire retardants used.
Certified OEKO-TEX Standard 100 for absence of toxic off-gassing and heavy metals.

Inspect the physical law label tag, decode the state Uniform Registry Number (URN), and review certified material percentages under CPSC 16 CFR Part 1633.
Under FTC 16 CFR Part 303 and IABFLO uniform law label standards, bedding manufacturers must disclose exact net filling weights using standardized generic fiber terms. Marketing buzzwords are prohibited under federal penalty.

Checklist
Step-by-step physical inspection procedure for flame barrier integrity and law label compliance.
Confirm URN registry NC-009876 (WI) on the permanent stitched law label.
Watch for: Avoid confusing third-party mattress protector tags with the primary mattress law label.
Confirm the filling includes polyfoam, cotton, and viscose silica knit.
Watch for: Do not puncture or slice inner quilted cotton layer.
Press and flex the border edge to inspect for internal needle friction or fiber shedding.
Watch for: Never wash quilted hybrid covers in household washing machines.
