Experience the Benefits of Dry-Fast Foam

Do you love to relax on your patio or deck furniture but hate the mad scramble to bring them in the second it looks like it might rain? Have you experienced trouble finding the material for your boat cushions so they don’t get rotten and waterlogged? For these situations and many more, there exists a porous, quick-drying, antimicrobial foam that is often referred to as “dryfast foam.”

Foam for patio cushions needs to be able to handle the elements. Conventional foam absorbs water like a sponge and can be next to impossible to dry when wet. Once wet, conventional cushions quickly mold and rot, turning into something nobody wants to sit on. Fast-drying foam cushions outdoor and marine seats with a wide-celled, reticulated structure, designed to permit the flow of moisture and air to drain and dry quickly. While traditional foam cells barely measure a fraction of a millimeter, quick-drying foam has cells that are three, four or even five millimeters wide. That may not seem like much, but it is more than adequate to let the cushion drain water and dry by air.

Many of these fast-drying materials feature antimicrobial compounds in their structure so if anything is preventing air from drying the cushion, like a wet bathing suit or towel, there’s no worry over the cushion rotting. When covered in a breathable outdoor fabric, a foam cut to size cushion can be left out during a storm and won’t get waterlogged in a damp marine environment. If you need outdoor cushioning that is comfortable but durable, fast-drying foam is the foam for the job.
