With over sixty-five years of experience working in the upholstery industry, F.C. Hancox is the go-to company for anyone sourcing custom foam cut to size. We work with furniture manufacturers, artisan makers, up-cyclers and domestic customers supplying high-quality foams for a wide range of projects, and every piece can be custom cut with our foam-cut-to-size service.
When average isn’t good enough
Whether you are making a product from scratch, or replacing foam in an existing item, you will need new foam. Unless you need an average cushion pad, you might find it difficult to buy foam off the shelf. An average piece of foam may not have the properties and comfort outcome you wish for your project. So don’t settle for less, get quality custom foam cut to size from F.C. Hancox.
Our service ensures that you get the best foam for your project and a perfect fit every time. Using state-of-the-art cutting machines and a range of blades, F.C. Hancox’s technicians take every care to ensure the piece of foam they are cutting is exactly how the customer wants it. Our staff are always happy to discuss a customer’s needs. If you are unsure about which foam to choose, or have questions about the cut, simply get in touch.
Custom foam for making new and replacing old
Foam is a versatile product and most of us would regard it as essential for seating, kneeling, and for lying down. We have many examples of where foam can be custom cut, either for a new item or to replace an old piece of foam.
From new: Knee pads, camping mattresses, campervan mattresses, dog beds, headboards, yoga blocks
Replacing old: Replacement sofa cushions, sofa cushion inserts, church kneelers, pew or bench cushions, foam floor cushions, piano bench seats
There are many occasions of where custom foam cut to size can make a big improvement to an item. See lots more examples here: Foam Applications
Lamination – the best of both worlds for comfort
Another way to make a big improvement when ordering custom foam cut to size is by using more than one type of foam, which are then stuck together. This is called laminating, and it’s a method used to improve items such as seating cushions and mattresses. An example of this is rather than have a very firm, yet inexpensive chip foam pad for a lounge chair, you can customise the pad by reducing the depth of the chip foam. You then make up the dimensions by topping it with a comfortable memory foam. This custom option provides luxury comfort at a much-reduced price than the pad being wholly made from memory foam.
