dacron upholstery batting
Dacron upholstery batting is the secret behind cushions that look plump and feel inviting. This polyester wrap sits between your foam and fabric, softening hard edges, filling out corners, and helping your cover slide on smoothly so it fits without wrinkles or sagging.
Where to Use Dacron Batting
- Wrapping foam seat and back cushions
- Padding dining chair seats and headboards
- Rounding out arms and edges on sofas and ottomans
- Adding loft to bench pads and window seats
What to Look For in Polyester Batting
Batting comes in different thicknesses, or lofts. A thinner foam wrap gives a crisp, tailored look, while thicker upholstery padding creates a softer, crowned cushion. Bonded polyester batting holds together and resists shifting, which makes it easier to cut and attach to foam.
Measure Before You Buy
Check the roll width against your cushion dimensions so you can cover the top, front, and bottom in one continuous piece. A light mist of spray adhesive keeps the cushion wrap in place while you slip on the cover.
