Even if you have invested in the best outdoor waterproof fabric for cushions, some moisture will find its way in through seams and zippered closures. Consequently, the foam core (a.k.a. cushion insert) of your upholstery must not only hold its shape and comfort level, but it must also be able to dry quickly and prevent damage from moisture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This all comes down to the quality of your foam. The quality of foam varies significantly, influenced by the material composition, production techniques, and specific treatments applied. Superior foam will ensure that your outdoor sofa and bench cushions remain comfortable and functional, providing lasting support and resilience against the elements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us take a closer look at the best types of durable, dry fast foam for outdoor cushions and pillows.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"opencell-foam\">Open-Cell Foam<\/h2>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cgrproducts.com\/blog\/open-cell-vs-closed-cell-foam\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Open-cell foam<\/a> has pores that allow water and air to easily flow through it. This unique feature makes it an excellent choice for outdoor upholstery and seat cushions due to its quick-drying properties. It also enhances comfort and breathability, ensuring a cool outdoor seating experience even on hot days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The foam is typically constructed with an antimicrobial agent that provides an additional layer of protection by inhibiting the fungal growth. This is particularly important during the drying process to maintain the foam\u2019s integrity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While it is more expensive than many alternatives, this type of <a href=\"https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/complete-guide-outdoor-pillows-patio-cushions\/\">quick-dry foam for outdoor cushions<\/a> is well worth the investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"702\" height=\"468\" src=\"https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-open-cell-foam.webp\" alt=\"Close-up of the edge of a yellow open-cell foam insert\" class=\"wp-image-17509\" srcset=\"https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-open-cell-foam.webp 702w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-open-cell-foam-333x222.webp 333w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-open-cell-foam-240x160.webp 240w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-open-cell-foam-113x75.webp 113w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-open-cell-foam-440x293.webp 440w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-open-cell-foam-452x301.webp 452w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-open-cell-foam-500x333.webp 500w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-open-cell-foam-670x447.webp 670w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-open-cell-foam-600x400.webp 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 702px) 100vw, 702px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"urecel-quickdry%25c2%25ae-foam\">Urecel \u2013 QuickDry\u00ae Foam<\/h3>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.urecelquickdry.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Urecel\u2019s QuickDry\u00ae<\/a> is the premium brand of open-cell foam.

It also incorporates Uregard anti-microbial technology to keep it free from biological problems. QuickDry\u00ae is used by luxury pool furniture brands like <a href=\"https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/brands\/mamagreen.html\">Mamagreen<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/brands\/cane-line.html\">Cane-line<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group shadedbg\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>PROS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Dries quickly<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Comfortable<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Resists mold &amp; mildew<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>CONS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Expensive<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"closed-cell-foam\">Closed Cell Foam<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Another option for your outdoor pillows and cushions is closed-cell foam(a.k.a. floatation foam).

It can be made from plastics including neoprene, polypropylene, polyethylene and polystyrene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each version has its own unique characteristics and applications. Spongy neoprene, for example, is flexible and provides thermal and moisture insulation for wet suits. Polypropylene is suitable for a wide range of uses, including automotive components, packaging and textiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group shadedbg\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>PROS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Repels water<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Floats<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Variations have benefits for specific applications<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>CONS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Expensive<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few of the most popular options for closed-cell foam patio furniture cushion inserts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"702\" height=\"468\" src=\"https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-foam-cushions-pillows-702x468.webp\" alt=\"Yellow metal tube patio chair with open-weave body, thin seat cushion and large back pillow\" class=\"wp-image-17510\" srcset=\"https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-foam-cushions-pillows-702x468.webp 702w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-foam-cushions-pillows-333x222.webp 333w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-foam-cushions-pillows-240x160.webp 240w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-foam-cushions-pillows-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-foam-cushions-pillows-113x75.webp 113w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-foam-cushions-pillows-440x293.webp 440w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-foam-cushions-pillows-452x301.webp 452w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-foam-cushions-pillows-500x333.webp 500w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-foam-cushions-pillows-670x447.webp 670w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-foam-cushions-pillows-830x553.webp 830w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-foam-cushions-pillows-930x620.webp 930w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-foam-cushions-pillows-600x400.webp 600w, https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/materials-outdoor-furniture-foam-cushions-pillows.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 702px) 100vw, 702px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"polyethylene-terephthalate-pet-foam\">Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) Foam<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Renowned for its durability and impact resistance, polyethylene is commonly used in packaging, containers and tubing. However, it can also be used for outdoor patio pillows and cushions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PET foam inserts are durable, recyclable and provide optimum support for outdoor upholstery. They are firm and do not flatten out or lose their shape like some materials. PET dries quickly, preventing moisture buildup that can lead to mildew and mold.<\/p>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"dacron%25c2%25ae\">Dacron\u00ae<\/h4>\n\n\n<p>Dacron\u00ae wrap for cushions is a leading brand of hypo-allergenic PET foam and is often wrapped around other foams to provide an additional layer of protection. When wrapped around other kinds of foam, Dacron\u00ae adds a plush, luxurious feel to cushions. It enhances the initial softness to create a smooth, rounded look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dacron\u00ae wrap for cushions also helps to protect the inner foam from wear and tear. It acts as a buffer, reducing friction between the foam core and the outer fabric cover, which can prevent premature breakdown of the materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group shadedbg\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>PROS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Durable<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Supportive<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Eco-friendly<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Quick-drying<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Resistant to mold &amp; mildew<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>CONS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>High quality brands can be costly<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"polyurethane-foam\">Polyurethane Foam<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>This common affordable seating foam has a medium firmness and will soak up water if it gets wet.

It dries relatively quickly and is easy to wash. It works best in low to moderate-use outdoor environments, since it compresses over time and frequent use will cause it to lose shape quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Polyester fiberfill is another low-cost option that is machine washable and resistant to mildew. It is usually stuffed into an inner pre-sewn cover that is then covered in outdoor fabric. One drawback is that the loose fibers tend to bunch up during laundering and may need reshaping after heavy use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group shadedbg\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>PROS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Inexpensive<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dries relatively quickly<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Easy-to-wash<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>CONS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Loses its shape<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Usually requires additional protective wrapping<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"best-type-of-materials-for-patio-pillows-and-cushions\">Best Type of Materials for Patio Pillows and Cushions<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Investing in high-quality materials for <a href=\"https:\/\/decoroutdoor.com\/patio-furniture\/outdoor-replacement-cushions.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">outdoor furniture cushions<\/a> is essential for ensuring the comfort, durability and longevity of your pillows and seats.
