dacron upholstery
If your cushions look flat, boxy or tired, dacron upholstery batting is often the missing layer. This soft polyester wrap goes between foam and fabric, rounding off hard edges, filling out the cover and giving seats that plump, professional look.
Why Wrap Foam With Dacron?
Bare foam can rub against upholstery fabric, wearing it from the inside and leaving corners that look sharp instead of crowned. A layer of polyester batting fixes that while adding a gentle loft.
- Fuller shape: fills the cover so fabric looks smooth, not baggy.
- Softer feel: adds a cushy top layer to firm foam.
- Less friction: helps covers slide on during assembly.
- Fabric protection: reduces abrasion from foam.
Choosing the Right Dacron Batting
Thickness and Loft
Thinner wraps suit tight, tailored seats and backs, while higher-loft batting works well for soft, rounded cushions and pillow backs.
Bonded or Unbonded
Bonded dacron has a treated surface that resists shedding and is easier to handle, making it a popular choice for cushion wrap and indoor or outdoor projects.
