Newtex’s custom-made proscenium fire containment curtain is used for fire safety in theaters, school auditoriums, and other public performance areas. Most city and state-mandated building codes require the use of proscenium fire containment curtains, which are lowered in the event of a fire on stage to protect the audience from smoke and flames as the area is evacuated. Fabricated from ZetexPlus® Vermiculite Coated Fiberglass Fabric, the ZetexPlus® Proscenium Fire Containment Curtain has been tested to ensure they exceed nationally recognized fire codes. They are listed and approved by the California State Fire Marshal's Office and the New York City Department of Buildings.
