Cushions for outdoors.

What do cushions bring to our outdoors space? The first and most obvious thing is the comfort, but the most dazzling and unexpected is its great decorative effect.

​The range of cushions at our disposal is almost endless.

​An incredible variety of models, designs and sizes of cushions of all kinds both for sofas and outdoor armchairs and sunloungers, or simple square cushions to decorate the garden sets and give them a cheerful and very personal touch.

Discover in this post all that you can get with some cushions and simple tricks to succeed in your choice.

​In the Todojardín centres, we have gathered an extensive range of specific cushions for outdoor use and to cover all your needs with a full guarantee.

1. Fabrics for outdoor cushions.

Colour and style are very important when choosing, but no less important is the material it is made of. The fabric and the infill are fundamental when it comes to providing the necessary durability for outdoor use.

​It is very important you to avoid natural fabrics such as cotton or linen, as their limited resistance to sunlight and moisture will cause them to deteriorate quickly. Choose specific fabrics for outdoor use.

All the materials used must meet a single premise: they are designed to offer great durability and sun resistance.

• ​Olefin. Offers supreme durability thanks to its fibres absorb less moisture, allowing it to dry much faster than other fabrics. It is resistant to abrasions, stains, UV rays, burns and chemicals.
• Polyester has excellent properties against weather agents, easy to clean and with an appearance reminiscent of woven structures of linen fabrics.
• Porotex is made of vinyl yarns coated with PVC, which form a strong and resistant fabric, its appearance is also similar to natural fabrics. This material is very resistant to atmospheric changes and is very easy to clean
• Dralon. Bright colours, ease of conservation, high resistance to UV radiation and pleasant feel to the touch. Besides, the tissues of dralon are very resistant and durable since there is neither mould formation nor contamination by bacteria.

​2. Tailor-made cushions for your outdoor furniture.

​On many occasions, customers come to visit us looking for cushions to renew their furniture.

​If they bought the furniture from us before and now they want to renew their cushions, they have it very easy. We have the original spare cushions with the security that will adapt perfectly to the structure of the furniture.

But other customers often face the problem that where they bought their furniture, they no longer supply them with spare parts.

​In TODOJARDIN we also have the solution. Do you have the dimensions of your furniture? You can test if in the huge range of replacement cushions that we have we find those that adapt to your furniture. In most cases, it is possible to find a truly acceptable substitute.

3. Decoration based on cushions.

​Maybe that we feel our furniture are smooth or inconspicuous.

If frames and cushions are still in good condition and you don’t want to change them, you have the option to give them a new look by changing the decorative cushions.
​
You will have different colours that you can mix between them to achieve a spectacular result with very little investment.

4. Proper maintenance of cushions.

When buying your outdoor cushions, pay special atention to the covers are removable, washable and do not wrinkle too much.

When the summer season is over, don’t forget to wash the covers and store them in a dry, dark place until next season. Dust and microorganisms can cause serious damage while they are stored. So, in addition to keeping them clean, you’ll extend their lifespan even further.
