Why Foam Polyester Wrap Makes Better Cushions
If your cushions look flat, boxy or wrinkled, foam polyester wrap is often the missing layer. This soft polyester batting goes between the foam and the fabric cover, rounding sharp edges, filling out the cover and giving seats a plump, professional finish. Upholsterers often call it dacron wrap, and it is a staple for both pros and DIY reupholstery projects.
What This Cushion Wrap Does
- Softens the feel: adds a plush top layer over firmer foam.
- Fills the cover: helps fabric fit snugly with fewer wrinkles.
- Protects the foam: reduces friction between foam and upholstery fabric.
- Eases installation: helps covers slide on more smoothly.
Choosing the Right Upholstery Batting
Thickness and Loft
Thinner wraps suit tailored chair seats and backs, while higher-loft batting suits plush sofa cushions and headboards.
Bonded vs. Unbonded
Bonded polyester batting holds its shape and resists shifting, making it easy to cut and glue in place.
Width and Coverage
Measure your cushion around its full depth and length so one piece can wrap it with minimal seams.
