The Benefits of Sofas with Cold Cure Foam Seat Cushions

When it comes to buying a sofa, the type of seat cushions can make a big difference in terms of comfort and durability. In some of our sofas we use cold cure foam, a revolutionary innovation in the upholstery industry that offers a range of benefits over other types of foam cushions. In this blog post, we’ll take a closer look at what cold cure foam is and why it’s a great choice for sofas.

What is Cold Cure Foam?

Cold cure foam is a type of foam that is made without the application of heat, and in the case of our sofas, using a water-based recipe. The foam is produced by mixing the ingredients together and pouring the resulting liquid into a mould, which is specifically designed to fit the seat cover. The foam then expands and hardens into a solid shape, holding its shape for the entire life of the foam.

Benefits of Cold Cure Foam:

1. Long-Lasting

Cold cure foam is more durable than conventional block foam, with a density of 50-55kg per M3 compared to 20-36kg per M3. This increased density means this foam maintains its shape and support for significantly longer than most other sofa fillings.

2. Comfortable

The foam conforms to your body and provides even support, reducing pressure points and promoting good posture. The foam also has a skin that reduces the air leaving the cushion, providing a comfortable seat whilst significantly improving the consistency of the seating experience.

3. Resistant to Sagging

Because cold cure foam is made in a mould specifically designed to fit the seat cover, it is more stable and less likely to compress than cut foam interiors. This means that your sofa will look and feel consistently great for years, without the need for constant fluffing, plumping or adjusting.

4. Hypoallergenic

Cold cure foam is hypoallergenic, making it a great choice for people with allergies or sensitivities to other types of sofa filling.

5. Eco-Friendly

Cold cure foam produces only 6% waste compared to regular foam that produces more than 27% waste. This, combined with its longer longevity, makes it a more environmentally friendly choice than traditional upholstery foams.
