Marine Upholstery
Marine Upholstery Sunshine Coast
As a boat lover, you know the importance of solid
upholstery. Proper boat seating can make or break your day trip on the waters. You want seating that is comfy enough for yourself and your guests to enjoy, rest and recuperate, but you also want marine upholstery that is sturdy and secure. It has to be resilient and tough to withstand the weathering waters.
What Is Marine Upholstery
Specialist marine upholstery is designed to suit the conditions of a boat, such as exposure to water, wind and sun etc. It uses marine upholstery foam which is the staple for your boat's furnishings and is expected to be resilient in harsh and extreme weather conditions. It also needs to have good density and resistance to compression. This is so it has enough strength and support to hold things whether that be people or objects. The ratio of this needs to be correct of course to not substitute comfort for strength. There should be a clear balance between the two. Marine foam is usually used for mattresses, seating and replacement
cushion
inners due to its longevity.
The most popular choice of material for marine upholstery is expanded vinyl. This is also known as PVC and is the most common choice due to its resistance to mildew and mould.
What To Look For In Your Marine Upholstery
There are certain requirements your marine upholstery should meet to ensure it is at the top standard for your boat. These are below:
- Water resistant – your upholstery must be able to withstand water such as splashes from the waves, wet clothes you may have on and rain.
- Resilient to the sun – being out on the water all day can expose you to the sun more than most. Just like we need to protect ourselves, your boat should protect itself. You want material that can withstand extreme sun exposure to ensure it lasts longer.
- Easy to clean – the likeliness is you’ll have a lot of upholstery on board your boat and by being out at sea, it’s going to need regular cleaning. Between the humidity, the sea salt and anything else from the water, you can expect your upholstery to require regular maintenance. This sea air/humidity also increases the likeliness of moulding so having a material that is easy to clean is essential.
- Breathable fabric – if it isn’t breathable then the heat from the sun will get trapped in the material causing your upholstery to be so warm they’re not comfortable.
