Can someone tell me where to find fabrics that are approved for use as curtains on an aircraft?

Thanks.
 
Its not a specific fabric, it does have to meet FAR 23 burn tests requirements basically set it on fire (or try to) and it should self extinguish. Look at airtex.com they are a #1 maker of interiors for aircraft and you can even buy legal fabric there by the yard to make your own. Someone once told me that the fabric they use is basically marine fabric, non-fading to the sun, oil resistant, and fire retardant. There is no "aviation fabric" but rather fabrics that meet aviation requirements.
