Upholstery Foam for Chairs and Wheelchairs

High-density foam offers a compression rate of 44 lbs, providing the perfect balance of cushioning and stiffness. It is soft yet maintains its firmness and support, ensuring a comfortable sitting experience without excessive compression. The compression, not density, determines the overall firmness. To avoid a cushion that is as hard as a rock or a mattress that sinks when sat upon, it is crucial to consider the compression or Indention Load Deflection (ILD) number. Compression refers to the number of pounds required to compress a piece of foam by 25% while still maintaining its original thickness.

For instance, a 4-inch thick foam piece that requires 33 lbs to compress it by 1 inch and return to its full 4-inch thickness has a 33 lb compression rating or ILD. It's important to note that all foam sheets are sold per sheet, not per yard. When opening the package, it's recommended to use a ball-point pen or a pencil instead of a box cutter to avoid damaging the foam.

Medium-density foam is a popular choice for firmness and relaxability in cushions. It is designed with high-quality compression and materials to ensure longevity, even when subjected to heavy weight. It's worth noting that a restocking fee may apply on returned items.

Foamrush's foam is certified for the highest quality, with a density of 1.8, a compression of 44 ILD, and a 100% recovery rate for durability. This high-density firm foam is ideal for heavy-traffic and high-use applications, and it is designed to last for 7-12 years.

Foamrush's foam is Certipur-US certified, ensuring quality assurance and safety compared to non-certified or non-regulated foam. This makes it suitable for a variety of projects in the home, from revitalizing worn-out chairs and sofas to creating custom cushions for patio furniture, ottomans, headboards, RVs, and more.

The foam is easy to customize using tools such as slicing devices. Customers can trim the edges, stack layers for extra thickness, or glue the foam together to create wider pieces or thicker cushions. Foamrush's foam can be cut and customized to fit any desired size or shape.

When receiving the foam, it's essential to open the package immediately and use caution to avoid cutting or tearing the foam with sharp objects. Once unpacked, the foam should be unrolled to allow it to relax and reach its full potential.

In summary, Foamrush's high-quality, Certipur-US certified foam offers a range of benefits, including superior compression, comfort, and durability, making it a versatile choice for a variety of home and DIY projects.
