8、eets, sheeting, pillowslips, towels, napkins, counterpanes and continental quilt secondary covers suitable for use in the public sector, BS 5815 is published in three parts as follows: Part 1: Specification for sheeting, sheets and pillowslips Part 2: Specification for towels and napkins Part 3: Spe

9、cification for counterpanes and continental quilt secondary covers including flammability performance The format used is that the standard first defines the fabrics and then the articles made from each fabric. For clarity and ease of communication, each fabric has a reference comprising two letters,

10、 followed by a number to indicate the width option. This standard covers only the basic description of the products and their construction and performance requirements. Purchasing authorities therefore may need to specify additional information. This Part covers sheeting, sheets and pillowslips but

11、can also be used to specify the fabrics from which they are manufactured. Many properties cannot be specified objectively and are therefore not included in this standard, e.g. colour, handling qualities and details of additional design features. Public sector purchasing authorities may be able to su

12、pply standard patterns that cover these properties and serve to resolve any ambiguities of description. This Part of BS 5815 does not include a requirement for electrostatic properties. Some of the articles therefore may not be suitable for use in some locations in healthcare premises. Attention is

13、drawn to Department of Health requirements precluding the use of static-prone textiles in operating theatres. Equally the standard does not cover requirements for physiological comfort and again there may be some medical situations where not all of the products are equally suitable. Compliance with

14、a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages i to ii, pages 1 to 5 and a back cover.

The dimensions of these articles are also specified. Particular requirements for sheets and pillow

16、slips for rail transport are included in Clause 6 of this standard. Information to be supplied by the purchaser is given in Annex A.

45、andard because of a decision to use 100 % flame-retardant cotton. To provide acceptable handling qualities and laundry processing performance after such treatment, it is necessary to reduce the construction and physical performance specifications. This leads to a reduced though still acceptable use-

46、life with good flame retardancy and acceptable handling qualities. 6.1 General In addition to the other requirements of this Part of BS 5815, sheets and pillowslips for use in rail transport shall conform to 6.2 and 6.3. 6.2 Construction and performance The finished, flame-retardant treated fabric s
