One of the popular fillings for cushions and mattresses is foam. There are different types of foams available like luxury foam, super-soft foam, high-density foam, dry fast foam and more. You can choose a foam depending on your application.
The high-density foam is ideal for seats, chairs and mattresses that have regular or heavy usage. It has a lifespan of 16 years. The luxury foam can be used for regular to heavy usage and is best suited for applications requiring firmness to extreme firmness.
The dry fast foam is ideal for medium to heavy usage and is ideal for marine applications and outdoor patio cushions. The super-soft foam is best suited for mattress toppers and has a lifespan of 5 years.
The foam can be easily cut, shaped and combined with other materials to get the required cushioning. The foam can be cut into the desired shape and size. You can make square/rectangle inserts, circular inserts, trapezoid inserts and more. You can get foam inserts for mattresses, luxury foam inserts and super soft foam inserts.
What are foam inserts?
The foam inserts are used to provide comfort and postural support and redistribute the pressure from high-risk areas. The weight gets distributed over a larger area when a person is seated on it and helps to minimise the pressure points. It can help to prevent pressure injuries.
You can get custom cut foam inserts based on your specific needs in the foam of your choice. Foam inserts in seat cushions can be used to improve comfort, sitting tolerance and posture. The foam can provide comfortable all-day sitting. They provide cushioning for comfort and firmness to support your body.
Benefits of foam
- The standard foam or conventional foam is made from polyurethane and gives uniform support. This type of foam is available in soft to firm options. The foam is less dense and lightweight. It can be used to make soft furniture inserts. It offers support to a broad range of body types.
- The dry fast foam or reticulated foam has an open cell structure ranging from fine to coarse. Because of the open cell structure, the foam allows air to circulate through it and is
breathable. This allows the heat to flow away from the surface of the mattress. It can help to dissipate the body heat away from the sleeper. It offers better air circulation for a cool
sweat-free sleep.
This foam can be used in outdoor cushions and marine applications as it allows water to flow through it easily. It is available in a wide range of densities. - The high-resilience foam has a much higher level of responsiveness. It gives a more even feel across the mattress and bounces with a spring-like feel. It can offer support to a broad range of body types.
- High-density foams have a strong cell structure which makes them highly durable. The higher the density the more durable the foam. It is ideal for regular or heavy usage. High-density foam inserts can be used to provide additional support.
