Abstract

A flame retardant bedding article comprises a hydroentangled flame retardant nonwoven component, and more specifically, a bedding article such as a mattress, pillow cover or mattress pad, comprising a structurally stable, flame retardant nonwoven component. The component comprises at least two layers that have a synergistic relationship so as to maintain the structural integrity of the bedding article upon burning.
