Why do we use Urecel Quick Dry Foam in our outdoor furniture?
Talk of foam usually conjures images of softness, comfort and absorption. It sops up any kind of liquid – even moisture, in a jiffy. But when it comes to outdoor furniture foam needs in your alfresco area or yacht, you may want to think again. Of course, not with sodden pants anyway.
Quick dry foam has revolutionized outdoor furniture to make it suitable for any kind of environment and have the ability to withstand most weather conditions. It does not hold water and not only that, quick dry foam is designed to be outside year round.
Reasons Why it is Worth Investing in Urecel Quick Dry Foam
The highly resilient and durable quick dry foam is expertly designed for outdoor use – from residential applications to marine environments.
In essence, quick dry foam and premium general foam are similar. Both are made with high-grade technologies, and mould and mildew resistant materials. However, what sets it apart is that the quick dry foam is designed with superior water drainage features thanks to its large, open channels. Not only that, they remain to be considerably cleaner than conventional foam as dirt, dust, and irritants don’t get trapped easily.
Therefore, it does not degrade its quality as compared to cheaper foam alternatives.
