Does a fabric sofa need to be paired with a sofa cushion?

A fabric sofa seat cushion is a cushion that is placed directly on the seat of the sofa and is mainly used to protect the sofa. Sofas are susceptible to dust and dirt; the human factor can also make them very unclean and troublesome to clean. Therefore, a sofa seat cushion can solve this problem. It can be easily attached to the sofa, and the excess can be tucked into the sofa’s crevices, holding the seat cushion more securely and making it less likely to slide.

Fabric sofa cushions can be categorized in different ways.

The different materials can be divided into cotton, plush, linen, chemical fibre, plant fibre and other types.

1, cotton cushions: cotton quilting, often used cushions on the sofa, is not easy to make the cushion deformation. In addition, quilting can also present a variety of patterns and has an embroidery effect, loved by people.

2, plush has a variety of types, including coral velvet (long hair), gold viscose velvet (bright colours) and short plush (soft and delicate). This material can also be spliced and sewn with textiles. High-grade leather and velvet sofa cushions may seem simple, but the padding is extremely comfortable.

4, rabbit velvet sofa cushion: This sofa cushion has an elegant shape and delicate touch, is very suitable for high-grade fabric sofas, and has the perfect effect.

5, cartoon sofa cushions always give people a cosy feeling. Its simple design and comfortable fabric can bring warmth to the home environment.

6, wool seat cushion: wool seat cushion always gives people a delicate and elegant feeling. This seat cushion looks comfortable and high quality; I believe that in the cold winter, it can also feel warmer.

7. The thickened corn fleece sofa cushion is a sofa cushion with a rustic style; the appearance is delicate and practical. After the thickening design, it can provide a more comfortable experience, and at the same time, it can also offer some protection for the fabric sofa.

How do you choose the right fabric sofa cushion?

1. Material: the material of the fabric sofa cushion determines the comfort and durability. Generally speaking, choosing cotton, linen fabrics, or materials with good breathability is better. At the same time, pay attention to the material’s ease of cleaning and stain resistance.

2. Color: The colour of the fabric sofa cushions should be coordinated with the sofa’s home decorating style. If you choose dark fabric sofa cushions, you can match them with bright cushions and pillows to increase the vitality and colour of the room.

3. Size: The size of the fabric sofa cushions is also essential. Before buying, measure the size of your sofa and sofa seat cushion, and choose the right fabric sofa cushion to ensure good use.

4. Thickness: the thickness of the fabric sofa cushions can also affect the comfort level; the thicker cushions will be more comfortable, but too thick will also squeeze the sofa space.

The above points focus on purchasing fabric sofa cushions; I hope to help you.

1, measure the length of the four sides of the sofa; usually, about 70 centimetres of the sofa needs to use about 90 centimetres of fabric sofa cushions so that there will be a sagging effect.

2 、When the sofa is a single seat, it is usually covered with fabric sofa cushions measuring 90×90 or 70×70 centimetres.

3. Either fabric sofa cushion can be used as a seat cushion. The backrest towel and armrest towel are universal, and the general backrest fabric towel for the sofa can be used in sizes 90×90 or 70×70. The exact size of the cloth towel depends on the height of the backrest. The armrest can use a 70×70 cloth towel.

4, choose a larger size; do not choose too small. Even if it is slightly more, you can tuck the excess into the seams of the sofa, which is more convenient to fix the sofa and play the role of non-slip.

How well do fabric sofas and latex cushions work together?

Latex is more expensive, and latex is typically 70 mils dense throughout. Whether it’s natural or synthetic latex, they have similar elemental compositions. Furthermore, the so-called 100% natural latex itself does not exist, as latex production requires adding very additives and hair enhancers. The so-called natural latex only means that the raw material used for coating is natural latex, which inevitably contains additives.

Fabric sofa: there are many common types, and each has its advantages and disadvantages.

1. Cotton fabric: breathable and comfortable but not waterproof.

2. Linen fabric: natural fibres make the sofa more environmentally friendly and comfortable; the disadvantage is that it is easy to wrinkle and has strong water absorption.

3. Polyester fabric: durable and not easy to wear and tear, but sometimes hard to the touch.

4. Silk fabric: comfortable touch and looks gorgeous and elegant; the disadvantage is that the price is higher and easy to wear.

5. Velvet fabric: Soft and cosy, it can be used for winter decoration but can easily absorb stains.

These are the factors to consider when choosing fabric sofa fabric, according to their needs, to select the most suitable material.

Fabric sofas are made of various materials, including cotton, linen, silk, wool, synthetic fibres, etc. Each material has advantages and disadvantages and different manufacturing processes, which can be selected according to individual needs. The advantages of fabric sofas are colourful, diverse patterns, and a comfortable feel. They can be removed and washed to replace, but also be able to choose different coats to show different personalities. Therefore, fabric sofas are welcomed by the majority of consumers. 

Rayleigh Furniture will introduce the knowledge of fabric sofa fabric and the advantages and disadvantages of various materials and manufacturing processes in the following content.

Sofa fabric variety is expected, including cotton and linen, silk, plush, suede, and other materials. They each have different advantages and disadvantages.

Cotton and silk fabrics feel soft, highly comfortable, can effectively absorb sweat, and are breathable, but they are easy to fade, wrinkle, and not easy to clean.

Plush fabrics feel comfortable and have good warmth but are easy to adsorb dust hair; cleaning is rugged and easy to produce static electricity.

Velvet fabrics feel soft, have good wear resistance, and are waterproof but easy to stain; you must pay attention to cleaning.

Fabric sofa fabric can be divided into different types: cotton, polyester fabric, nylon fabric, polyester-cotton blended fabric, high-density NC fabric and 3M waterproof mousse fabric.

Cotton is extracted from the fibres of the cotton seed. After picking, processing, ginning, carding, splicing, combing, rough spinning and worsted spinning, it is finally made into cotton yarn, which is then woven into cotton fabric.

Outstanding moisture-wicking ability – the fibres of cotton fabrics are a porous substance with irregular molecular arrangement and contain many hydrophilic chemical structures.

Warmth: Cotton fibre is a material with poor heat conductivity, and its internal cavity is filled with still air, so it has good warmth.

Comfortable to wear: Cotton fibre does not quickly produce static electricity, has good breathability, can effectively prevent allergic reactions, and is easy to wash and wear.

Easy to wrinkle —- cotton fibre elasticity needs to be improved. Shrinkage rate is significant —- Cotton fibres have strong water absorption, and when absorbing water, cotton fibres expand, which triggers the shortening and deformation of cotton yarn.

Polyester is a synthetic fibre made from polymer compounds, also known as polyester.

Strengths: High strength, excellent abrasion resistance, good elasticity, and high heat resistance.

The disadvantage is the need for a hydrophilic structure between the molecules, resulting in very poor moisture absorption and breathability.

Nylon is the generic name for a type of polyamide fibre produced in China, known academically as polyamide fibre. It is also known as “nylon” or “nylon”.

Advantages: Strong, good abrasion resistance, top of all fibres. Its abrasion resistance is ten times higher than cotton fibres, ten times higher than dry viscose fibres, and 140 times higher than wet fibres. 

Therefore, it has excellent durability. Nylon fabrics have excellent elasticity and elastic recovery but are prone to deformation when subjected to slight external forces, so they tend to wrinkle during wear.

Disadvantages: Poor air circulation and easy accumulation of static electricity.

Polyester-cotton blend is a fabric made by mixing polyester and cotton in a particular proportion after spinning and weaving.

Characteristics: This textile has the popular design of polyester and the advantages of cotton fabric. It maintains good elasticity and abrasion resistance in both dry and wet environments, is not prone to changes in size and has a small shrinkage rate. It also has the characteristics of a three-dimensional feeling, not easy to wrinkle, easy to clean and fast drying. Still, it can not be ironed at high temperatures, and boiling water is used to clean it.

High-density NC fabric is made of a mixture of nylon and cotton yarn, woven with high density and usually uses parallel organization.

The advantage of this product is that it combines the advantages of nylon and cotton yarn, which are not only easy to protect but also have a soft, natural and comfortable hand feel and are very easy to clean.

Shortcomings: because the nylon fibres and other fibres are used for interweaving or mixing, the fabric’s heat resistance and light resistance could be better; during the use, one must pay attention to comply with the correct cleaning and ironing conditions so as not to cause damage.

3M waterproof mousse fabric: this fabric adopts the latest technology – “new synthetic fibre”, using ultra-fine fibers as raw materials woven, high-density fabric. Feel soft, smooth and delicate. This fabric has more micro-fine hairs than ordinary fabrics; the surface area and micro-pores are multiplied to absorb dust and remove oil and dirt.

Advantage: It has excellent waterproof performance and maintains the fabric’s breathability and moisture permeability. It has a soft, elegant lustre, a soft, smooth, delicate feel, warm to the touch, and a fluffy, elastic cloth body.

Velvet Fabric:

Advantages: velvet fabric is delicate and soft to the touch, not easy to deform and fade, the colour rendering effect is outstanding, and it is very suitable for making fabric sofas.

Shortcomings: breathability needs to be improved.
