High-density foam has a compression rate of 44 lbs, offering the perfect balance of cushioning and stiffness. This type of foam is soft yet maintains its firmness and support, allowing individuals to sit on it without excessive compression. The compression, or the number of pounds required to compress the foam by 25% and have it return to its original thickness, determines the firmness, not the density. To avoid a cushion that is as hard as a rock or a mattress that sinks when sat upon, one must check the compression or ILD (indentation load deflection) number.

For example, a 4-inch thick piece of foam that requires 33 lbs to compress it by 1 inch and return to its full 4-inch thickness has a 33 lb compression rating or ILD. It is important to note that all foam sheets are sold per sheet, not per yard, and they should be opened with a ball-point pen or pencil, making a small incision and then breaking it from there, rather than using a box cutter.

The high-density foam is designed for durability, with an expected lifespan of 7 to 10 years. It is known for its high-quality compression and material, allowing it to withstand heavy weight without compromising its integrity. However, it is important to be aware of the Upholstery Foam Return Policy, which states that a 50% restocking fee will be charged if the item has been used and is not in the same condition as when it was received.

Foamrush's high-density foam is certified for the highest quality, with a density of 1.8, a compression of 44 ILD, and a 100% recovery rate. This foam is great for revitalizing worn-out furniture, such as chairs, sofas, and cushions, providing the perfect balance of support, comfort, and durability. The firm foam is designed for heavy traffic and high-use applications, with a lifespan of 7 to 12 years.

Foamrush's foam is CertiPUR-US certified, ensuring that it is safe and better for the user compared to non-regulated foam. The company also provides cut-to-order foam products to ensure the best quality for its customers, and all their foam is proudly made locally.

Foam can be used for a variety of projects beyond just sofas and chairs, such as repairing worn-down chairs, creating custom cushions for patio furniture, ottomans, headboards, RVs, boat seats, car seats, golf cart seats, workout benches, cots, window seats, restoring vintage furniture, and even as packing material for delicate items.

Customizing the foam is easy, as it can be sliced through with tools like a serrated knife, electric knife, or electric hot wire foam cutter. The edges can be trimmed, and the layers can be stacked to adjust the thickness as needed. Additionally, the foam can be glued together to create wider pieces or layered to make thicker cushions.

When receiving the foam, it is important to follow the care instructions. The package should be opened immediately, and a box cutter or anything sharp should be avoided to prevent cutting through the foam. The foam should be removed from the box and unrolled to allow it to fully expand, which may take up to 3 to 4 days.
