bonded polyester wrap

If your cushions look flat, boxy, or a little lumpy under their covers, bonded polyester wrap is the simple fix upholsterers rely on. Wrapped around foam before the cover goes on, this soft layer of polyester batting rounds out sharp edges, fills the cover for a crisp, professional look, and adds a gentle, plush feel when you sit down.

Why Wrap Foam Cushions?

Foam on its own can feel firm and look stark at the corners. A layer of upholstery batting helps in several ways:

• Fuller shape: Fills loose spots so covers fit snugly.
• Softer feel: Adds a cushiony top layer over dense foam.
• Easier fitting: Helps foam slide into fabric covers with less friction.
• Less wear: Reduces rubbing between foam and upholstery fabric.

Choosing the Right Wrap

Bonded vs. Loose Batting

Bonded batting is treated so the fibers hold together, which means it resists shifting, pilling, and shedding better than loose fiber fill.

Thickness and Use

Lighter wraps suit dining chair seats and slim pads, while lofty options work well for sofa, patio, and window seat cushions. Measure your foam's full surface area so you can wrap tops, bottoms, and sides.
