seat cushion stuffing
The right seat cushion stuffing decides whether a chair feels supportive for hours or flattens within weeks. Whether you're refreshing dining chairs, building a window seat or reviving patio furniture, the filling inside matters as much as the fabric outside.
Choosing the Right Filling
Each type of filling suits a different seat. Match the material to how the cushion will be used.
Foam for Firm Support
High density foam holds its shape under daily use, making it a smart pick for dining chairs, benches and banquettes. For patio seating, look for outdoor cushion foam designed to drain water and dry quickly.
Fiberfill for Soft Comfort
Polyester fiberfill creates a plush, pillowy feel. It works well for loose chair pads and tufted cushions, and you can add more for a fuller look.
Batting for a Smooth Finish
Upholstery batting wraps around foam to soften hard edges, fill out the cover and reduce wear on your fabric.
What to Look For
- Thickness that fits your seat depth
- Firmness suited to how often the seat is used
- Indoor or outdoor suitability
- Easy cutting and shaping for custom sizes
