foam fabricator
Whether you run an upholstery shop or tackle custom cushions at home, thinking like a foam fabricator is the secret to seating that looks sharp and stays comfortable. The foam under your fabric shapes how a cushion feels, how it holds up to daily use and how neatly your cover fits over it.
What a Foam Fabricator Looks For
Professionals size up a few core qualities before they make a single cut.
Density and Firmness
High density foam resists sagging and suits heavily used seats, while softer polyurethane foam works well for back cushions and pillows. Firmness determines how much support you feel when you sit down, so match it to how the piece will be used.
Thickness and Size
Measure your frame carefully and allow for the fabric cover. Foam sheets in standard thicknesses are versatile for many projects, and foam cut to size saves time on bench pads, window seats and boat cushions.
