Stockinette undercovers

Our stockinette undercovers fit permanently around your new foam and are strongly recommended in order to give your outer covers a smooth, uncreased appearance. They also make the fitting and removal of covers considerably easier. Stockinette is not necessary on mattresses or overlays.

The stockinette creates a barrier between the foam and the outer cover and so protects the foam from wearing, if the cover moves.

Polyester fibre wrapping

We can fit a polyester fibre wrapping to your new foam, to give a softer more rounded look to your cushions. It takes away the otherwise very angular look of new foam.

We offer a standard 6oz wrap which is what you will find on most existing suite cushions, or a heavy 14oz wrap which is required if you are replacing feather or fibre fillings with foam. This extra heavy wadding is needed to fill the shape that feather or fibre designed covers will have. We then fit stockinette undercovers over the polyester wrapping, again making it easier to remove the outer covers if required.

‘Bullnosing’

If the front edge of your new cushion needs to be curved as shown, we can ‘Bullnose’ it for you.

‘Keyhole’ backrests

Very popular on caravan cushions, this profile as shown is available to give a little interest to an otherwise plain backrest. Particularly attractive if the outer cover is going to be buttoned-on.

‘Kneeroll Front’ edge

If you would like your seat cushions to have a raised ‘lip’ as shown (right), then we can bond a 1 inch ‘foam dome’ onto the top edge of your cushion. This profile, especially when buttoned, gives a similar effect to that which is seen in many modern caravans and motor caravans.
