cushion wrap batting

If your cushions look flat, boxy, or lumpy at the edges, cushion wrap batting is the simple fix. Wrapped around a foam insert before the cover goes on, this soft layer adds loft, rounds out hard corners, and helps your fabric fit smoothly for a plump, professional finish.

Why Wrap Your Cushion Foam

Bare foam can feel firm and grab the inside of your cover, making it hard to zip and prone to wrinkles. A layer of upholstery batting solves several problems at once:

• Fuller shape: fills out the cover so seams and welting sit crisp.
• Softer feel: adds a gentle, cushy top layer.
• Foam protection: reduces wear and friction against the fabric.
• Easier fitting: helps the insert slide into the cover.

What to Look For

Material and Loft

Polyester batting, often called dacron wrap, is a popular choice because it resists mildew and holds its loft. Bonded polyester batting has a treated surface that limits shedding and pilling.

Width and Thickness

Choose a roll wide enough to wrap the top, front, and bottom of your foam in one piece, and pick a thickness that matches how plush you want the cushion.
