A good quality sofa or chair will be completely padded and insulated with high resilient materials such as polyether foam, felt, cotton wadding and Dacron fibre.

At PF, we use fire retardant fillings and cushions supplied by two of the UK’s leading manufacturers of high resilient foams and fibres.

We offer our customers a choice of seat and back cushions dependant on the type of comfort they require:

Probably the most traditional filling available. This cushion is used on top of a coil spring to give a soft luxurious sit. Feathers will flatten each time they are sat on and will require more maintenance than any other filling through regular plumping, to keep your furniture looking its best.

Dacron hollow fibre, Quolofill and Wellman etc. are all polyester fibres used to manufacture good quality cushion interiors. Air is trapped inside the fibre and gives a medium sit but with the added benefit of recovering most of its shape after it is sat on.

This type of cushion combines the soft luxurious properties of feather, with the recovery of shape of polyester fibre.

Both Polyester fibre and feather and fibre mix cushions require regular plumping to maintain their performance and shape. Continual sitting, without plumping the cushion, will cause the fibre to flatten and not recover its shape.

If you are looking for your furniture to look neat and tidy even after it is sat upon, you should choose this type of cushion. These new generation high resilient foams recover 100% of its shape and require very little maintenance. We offer different grades of foam from very soft to very firm and we give a five year guarantee on this type of cushion.
