dacron roll by the yard
Buying a dacron roll by the yard is the easiest way to give cushions, chair seats and headboards a smooth, full, professional finish. This polyester batting wraps around foam to soften hard edges, fill out fabric and help covers slide on without bunching. Cutting exactly what you need also keeps waste and cost down on every project.
Why Upholsterers Use Dacron Batting
Dacron wrap sits between foam and fabric, adding a plush layer that rounds out corners and gives furniture a crowned, inviting look. It also reduces friction, so the outer fabric wears more evenly over time.

How to Choose the Right Roll
Look at loft and weight first: thinner polyester upholstery wrap works well for tight, tailored pieces, while thicker batting adds softness and fullness to loose cushions. Consider whether the batting is bonded, which helps it hold together during handling. Measure your foam, add enough to wrap the top, front and back, and order a little extra for trimming.
