upholstery foam hr
When a cushion flattens after a season, the foam inside is usually to blame. Upholstery foam HR, short for high resilience foam, is designed to spring back quickly and hold its shape through daily sitting. That makes it a favorite reupholstery foam for refreshing tired furniture and building custom cushions.
Why Choose High Resilience Foam
HR foam has an irregular, open cell structure that gives it a lively, supportive feel rather than the slow sink of memory foam. The result is dependable seat cushion foam with firm support, good airflow, and quick recovery after someone stands up.
Popular Uses
- Replacement foam for sofa cushions and loveseats
- Dining chair pads and banquette seating
- Window seats, benches, and padded headboards
- RV, boat, and camper cushions paired with a suitable fabric
What to Look For
Compare the density and firmness listed for each foam. Higher density generally points to a longer-lasting cushion, while firmness determines how soft or supportive the seat feels.
Measure your frame carefully, choose a thickness that suits the piece, and consider wrapping the foam in batting for a smoother, rounded look under your upholstery fabric.
