Smart Construction

Aircraft-Grade Polyurethane Foam

Precision cut foam is used to create the underlying supportive layers of The LegLounger. This is the “deep tissue” of the LegLounger. Our foam specifications are tightly spec’d – aircraft grade. The densities and ILD’s (internal load deflection) specifications are designed for cradling resiliency. Soft enough to take on your body’s form and help evenly displace its weight -- yet firm enough to provide the necessary firmness, proper anatomical alignment, and posture.

A Fleecy Cloud You Can Lounge On

Gently “hovering” over the aircraft grade supportive foam, we put a rich layer of Spun Polyester Fiber. The fiber is a breathable material that is aerated with millions of spaces of intertwining air pockets. It is soft fiber spun into a durable froth.

Air circulates through these airy spaces insulating your body and helping in maintaining a moderate, comfortable temperature against your skin.

Composite Lamination: Fiber/Foam/Framework

We laminate together the three structural elements: fiber, foam, and framework. They are fused into a “composite”, a layered, integrated combination. The fusing done with a fine application of latex adhesive. It must be applied by hand – “by feel” so that it doesn’t mat and flatten the fleecy fiber. The latex adhesive is misted on in such a way that it integrates, and bonds the spun fiber to the foam and then to the inner framework.

It is the LegLounger’s fiber-foam-frame composite combination that acts as an airy, cloud-like cushion, almost like capturing a cloud for your body to rest on. Your body “floats” on this fibrous layer; your weight distributed evenly by the foam layer; and all the parts of the lounger able to adjust and proportion themselves to your body by means of the inner framework -- working in combination together to give you a stress-free lounging experience like no other!

Inner Cover

Encompassing the entire LegLounger body and headrest, to contain the composite fiber-foam framework, is an inner cover. One of the hallmarks of top-of-the-line seating and furniture is an inner, protective cover. Our inner cover actually serves a dual purpose: to protect the composite layers inside, and importantly, to add a layer of tautness, which adds further support to the LegLounger.

Our inner covers are cut “on a bias” so that the direction in which the fabric “gives” will move with the LegLounger’s internal parts. It's panels are stitched for strength and long wear.
