bonded dacron batting
Bonded Dacron batting is the quiet secret behind cushions that look full, crisp and professionally finished. Made from polyester fibers that are bonded together, it holds its shape, resists shifting and sheds far less than loose fiberfill. That makes it a go-to layer for anyone reupholstering furniture, making seat cushions or padding a headboard.
Why Upholsterers Reach for Dacron Wrap
Wrapping foam in polyester batting softens hard edges, fills out the corners of a cover and helps fabric glide over the cushion without bunching. It also adds a gentle crown and a plush, rounded look that bare foam can't match.
Popular Uses
- Wrapping foam for seat, bench and patio cushions
- Padding chair seats, ottomans and headboards
- Smoothing the surface of upholstered arms and backs
- Adding loft to pillows, pet beds and craft projects
What to Look For
Consider the thickness and loft you need: thinner batting suits tight, tailored covers, while loftier options give a softer, fuller finish. Check the roll width against your foam so you can wrap it in a single piece, and choose a bonded finish if you want clean handling with minimal stray fibers.
