High-density foam features a compression rate of 44 lbs, providing the perfect balance of cushioning and stiffness. The foam is soft yet maintains its firmness and support, allowing individuals to sit on it without excessive compression. Compression, not density, determines the firmness. 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. Compression refers to the number of pounds required to compress a piece of foam by 25% while still allowing it to bounce back to its original thickness.

For example, a 4-inch thick piece of foam that requires 33 lbs to be compressed 1 inch and then 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 should be opened with a ball-point pen or pencil, rather than a box cutter, to avoid damaging the product.

High-density foam is prized for its firmness and relaxation-inducing properties. It features high-quality compression and materials that allow it to withstand heavy use and last for 7 to 10 years. Foamrush's certified foam offers a density of 1.8 and a compression rating of 44 ILD, providing the perfect balance of support, comfort, and durability. This firm foam is designed for heavy-traffic and high-use applications, with an expected lifespan of approximately 7-12 years.

All of Foamrush's foam products are Certipur-certified, ensuring quality and safety. The company uses only the highest-quality foam and provides cut-to-order options to meet the specific needs of its customers. Foam can be utilized in a variety of projects beyond just sofas and chairs, such as repairing worn-down furniture, creating custom cushions for outdoor furniture, and even serving as packing material for fragile items.

Customizing the foam is a straightforward process, as it can be easily sliced with tools like an electric hot wire foam cutter. Edges can be trimmed, and layers can be stacked to achieve the desired thickness. The foam can also be glued together to create wider pieces or layered to form thicker cushions. Foamrush's foam can be tailored to any size or shape required, making it a versatile material for a wide range of DIY and home improvement projects.

When receiving the foam, it is important to open the package immediately and avoid using sharp tools, as this may damage the product. Once the foam is removed from the shipping box, it should be unrolled to allow it to relax and regain its full shape and size.
