About QuickDry Cushion Foam Material

Design Warehouse includes QuickDry foam in its range of outdoor cushions. Providing both comfort and durability, QuickDry foam is generally composed of a polyurethane material, which is open-celled. This structure is key to many of its beneficial properties. The foam may also incorporate anti-microbial treatments to further prevent mould and mildew growth.

Ideal for Outdoor Cushions:

  • Fast Drying: The open-cell structure of the foam allows water to drain out quickly, significantly reducing the drying time compared to traditional foams. This makes it ideal for outdoor environments where cushions may be exposed to rain or moisture.
  • Mould and Mildew Resistant: Because it dries quickly, it does not retain moisture, which often leads to the growth of mould and mildew. This property helps in maintaining the hygiene and lifespan of the cushions.
  • UV Resistant: QuickDry foam is often treated to be UV resistant, allowing it to retain its structure and colour even when exposed to the harsh rays of the sun for extended periods. This makes it especially suitable for outdoor spaces where the furniture is continually exposed to sunlight.
  • Comfort and Durability: Despite its open structure, QuickDry foam does not compromise on comfort. It is soft yet resilient, providing excellent support and comfort. Furthermore, it is known for its longevity, maintaining its structure and feel even after prolonged use.
  • Environmentally Friendly: The manufacturing process of QuickDry foam is usually designed to be eco-friendly, utilizing techniques that minimize waste and reduce energy consumption. Additionally, its durability means less frequent replacements, contributing to a reduction in waste.
  • Flame Retardant: Many QuickDry foams are also treated to be flame retardant, adding an extra layer of safety for your outdoor spaces.
  • Easy to Clean: Its structure allows for easy cleaning as it does not harbour dirt and debris in the same way as closed-cell foams. A simple rinse with water is often sufficient to clean it.

Incorporating QuickDry foam in your outdoor cushions not only ensures a comfortable and aesthetically pleasing space but also a durable and low-maintenance solution, ideal for enjoying New Zealand's beautiful outdoors without the worry of rapid wear and tear.
