The Reflex foam provides luxurious comfort when used in seating and is available in a soft medium and a firm density. Reflex foam is designed to regain its shape even after years use and this is why it is perfect for all types of seating.

The soft density is superb for replacing fibre or feather cushion backs in sofas as well as a very soft feel seat if that is what you require. The foam regains its shape so there will be no need for the constant “plumping up” that is associated with fibre or feather cushions.

The medium and firm densities are particularly popular for sofa seat cushions as they provide excellent support and comfort, they immediately return to their original shape after use on and both provide excellent comfort and support.
