FOAM FAQ
What will be the suitable foam for Outdoor cushions?
The most suitable foam for outdoor seat cushions is Dry Fast Foam. Dry Fast Foam is ideal for damp environments, boats, and pool sides due to its faster drying properties compared to regular HD Foam. Regular HD foam can be used for outdoor purposes as well provided some shade protects it against getting too damp. HD Foam can sustain intermittent moisture but not a long continuous exposure to dampness.
For back cushions and throw pillows, fiber fill is the best choice as it provides great comfort for your back
How is high-density foam different from regular foam?
High-density foam stands apart from regular foam in several key aspects. Firstly, its composition is denser, which translates to greater resilience and longevity. Unlike regular foam, which offers a softer cushioning, high-density foam provides robust support, ensuring that cushions retain their shape over time. In practical applications, while regular foam is versatile and used in a variety of cushioning contexts, high-density foam is the go-to for situations demanding enhanced support and durability, such as in high-traffic seating areas
