At F.C. Hancox we are proud of our foam cut-to-size service for all our foams, but did you know that as well as the usual rectangular mattress shape, memory foam can be cut to any size or shape? This versatile, luxury foam enhances comfort in a wide range of mattress and seating applications. Read on to discover what memory foam cut to size can do to provide ultimate comfort.
What is Memory Foam?
Memory foam is a soft, yet dense, foam that when pressure is applied it will mould to the shape of whatever is applying the pressure. For mattresses and seating, this is the body’s shape. Once the pressure is released, the foam will bounce back to its original shape. This makes memory foam an ideal foam for mattresses. Memory foam is the type used for hospital foam mattresses and in other care industry situations, especially where orthopedic support is needed. Similarly, memory foam makes ideal seating pads, and as well as everyday domestic uses, there are specialist uses, such as for wheelchairs and for mobile scooters. This is because the nature of the foam relieves pressure and provides lumbar support.
The make of memory foam supplied by F.C. Hancox is called Vasco 50, a medium density foam suitable for many applications. When supplying memory foam cut to size, we can not only provide the foam as a single piece, but we can also laminate it to other foams. Foam lamination is where two layers of foam are adhered to each other. A piece of memory foam can be laminated to a less expensive seating foam, making it a comfortable, yet less expensive, option than all memory foam. In this case, a layer of memory foam between 25mm or 50mm is ideal. Even without lamination, memory foam provides an excellent foam mattress topper. Here are more ideas.

Benefits of Using a Professional Memory Foam Cut to Size Service
Even a basic rectangular piece of foam needs accurate cutting, so skill and experience counts when custom cutting memory foam. Cutting with sharp knives, or even scissors, can result not only in jagged edges but slanted edges too. This may mean that the foam does not fit properly, leaving unsightly gathering in cover fabrics. Memory foam is a luxury foam, you will be paying more for the foam than a standard variety, so you want to get the best look and great fit. The answer is to have your memory foam cut to size using a professional cutting service such as the one provided by F.C. Hancox.
At the F.C. Hancox warehouse, our experienced technicians use the precision of a band knife cutter to process all our foam-cut-to-size orders. These versatile cutting machines provide high accuracy and use a variety of bands which provide the blade which cuts the foam. The type of band knife used depends upon the cut required. It is by using different band knives for different shapes that we can offer a service that cuts memory foam to any shape. Where a shape is irregular, a template will be used to ensure the precise size and shape is cut. A memory foam-cut-to-size service is one of skill, precision, and experience in using the band knife cutter.
Custom Memory Foam Cut to Size for Bespoke Comfort Solutions
You will have already decided that you want a custom memory foam piece and will know its shape. Mattresses are probably the easiest as they are most often rectangular in shape, but it could be that you are making or replacing a mattress that doesn’t fit a standard bed. These include campervan and caravan foam mattresses or a truck foam mattress. When using F.C. Hancox’s memory foam cut to size service, these can be cut to the length, width and depth required and curved corners modelled if this is the shape of the space.

Memory foam cut to size for non-regular shapes begins by first cutting the foam nearest to the shape, then modelling it to the exact shape and curvature needed. Non-regular shapes, include cylindrical foam bolster cushions and triangular foam wedge for beds. These, or irregular-shaped seating pads, would be made to dimensions supplied. When ordering memory foam cut to size, some people provide drawings, and we have had people send or bring old foam pieces they are replacing to the warehouse for our technicians to use as templates.
