Bolster & Scatter Cushions

Bolster & Scatter Cushions

Bolster and scatter cushions are used to add comfort, shape and softness to sofas, chairs, beds and upholstery projects. This category includes soft filled cushion interiors in fibre, feather, luxury fibre and crumbed foam options, along with fibre filled bolster cushions for decorative and support use.

Scatter cushions are ideal for sofas, armchairs, beds, loose backs and soft furnishing work. Bolster cushions are commonly used for lumbar support, arm support, bed dressing, traditional upholstery and decorative finishing.

Whether you are replacing tired cushion inners, filling new cushion covers or supplying soft furnishings for upholstery work, choosing the right filling helps control the feel, fullness and finished appearance of the cushion.

Scatter Cushion Fillers for Sofas, Chairs and Beds

Scatter cushions are one of the simplest ways to add comfort and shape to furniture. They are used on sofas, chairs, armchairs, beds, window seats and upholstery displays.

This category includes scatter cushion fillers suitable for:

Sofa scatter cushions
Chair scatter cushions
Armchair cushions
Bed cushions
Loose back cushions
Decorative cushions
Soft furnishing projects
Upholstery work
Furniture restoration
Display cushions

Scatter cushion fillers are available in different fillings depending on the feel required. Fibre gives a soft, plump and feather-free finish. Feather gives a heavier, more traditional feel. Crumbed foam gives a loose-filled foam feel with more resilience than fibre or feather.

Fibre Filled Scatter Cushions

Fibre filled scatter cushions are soft, plump and feather-free. They are a popular choice for customers who want a lightweight cushion with a full appearance and a softer feel.

Fibre scatter cushions are suitable for sofas, chairs, beds and decorative soft furnishing work. They are also useful where feather is not wanted.

Fibre cushions should be dressed and plumped regularly to help keep the filling evenly distributed and the cushion looking full.

Luxury Fibre Filled Scatter Cushions

Luxury fibre filled scatter cushions offer a softer, fuller and more premium feel than standard fibre options. They are suitable where a plumper and more comfortable scatter cushion finish is required.

Luxury fibre is a good choice for decorative cushions, sofa cushions, bed cushions and soft furnishing projects where appearance and comfort both matter.

Like all soft fibre fillings, luxury fibre cushions should be plumped and dressed regularly to help maintain their shape and fullness.

Feather Filled Scatter Cushions

Feather filled scatter cushions are a traditional choice where a softer, heavier and more natural filling is preferred. Feather gives the cushion natural weight, movement and a relaxed dressed appearance.

Feather scatter cushions are suitable for sofas, armchairs, beds, loose back cushions and traditional upholstery projects.

Feather cushions need regular plumping, turning and dressing to help maintain fullness and keep the filling evenly distributed.

Crumbed Foam Filled Scatter Cushions

Crumbed foam filled scatter cushions offer a different feel from fibre or feather. The loose crumbed foam filling gives softness with a more resilient, foam-based feel.

This type of scatter cushion can be useful where a customer wants a cushion filler that feels less traditional than feather and more supportive than loose fibre.

Crumbed foam scatter cushions are suitable for sofas, chairs, decorative cushions, upholstery work and general cushion filling applications.

Fibre Filled Bolster Cushions

Bolster cushions are long, cylindrical cushions used for support, comfort and decoration. Fibre filled bolster cushions are soft, lightweight and feather-free, making them a practical choice for sofas, beds, chairs and upholstery projects.

Bolster cushions are commonly used for:

Lumbar support
Arm support
Bed dressing
Sofa styling
Chair support
Traditional upholstery
Decorative soft furnishings
Loose cushion arrangements

Fibre filled bolster cushions should be dressed and plumped regularly to help maintain fullness and shape.

Choosing the Right Cushion Filling

Different scatter and bolster cushion fillings behave in different ways.

Choose Fibre If You Want a Soft Feather-Free Cushion

Fibre is lightweight, plump and feather-free. It is a good choice for scatter cushions, bolsters and decorative cushions where softness and fullness are important.

Choose Luxury Fibre If You Want a Fuller Premium Finish

Luxury fibre is suitable where a softer, fuller and more comfortable scatter cushion is required. It gives a more premium feel than standard fibre.

Choose Feather If You Want a Traditional Cushion Feel

Feather gives natural weight, movement and a traditional relaxed appearance. It is ideal for customers who like a classic soft furnishing feel and do not mind regular plumping.

Choose Crumbed Foam If You Want a Loose Foam-Based Filling

Crumbed foam gives a soft but more resilient feel than fibre or feather. It is useful for customers who want a loose-filled cushion with a foam-based character.

Bolster Cushions vs Scatter Cushions

Scatter cushions are usually square or rectangular and are used for comfort, decoration and soft back support. They are commonly used on sofas, chairs and beds.

Bolster cushions are long and cylindrical. They are often used for lumbar support, arm support, bed dressing and decorative upholstery work.

Both cushion types can improve comfort and appearance, but they are used in different ways. Scatter cushions add soft surface comfort and decoration, while bolsters add shape, structure and support.

Cushion Care Information

Fibre, feather, luxury fibre and crumbed foam cushion fillings all need care to help maintain their appearance.

Soft filled cushions should be plumped, turned and dressed regularly. This helps keep the filling distributed inside the cover and helps the cushion look fuller for longer.

Fibre and feather cushions will naturally settle with use. This is normal. Regular dressing helps improve comfort and appearance, but soft cushion fillers will not hold a fixed shape in the same way as foam.

Suitable for Domestic and Trade Upholstery Use

Bolster and scatter cushions are suitable for domestic soft furnishings, upholstery work, furniture restoration, interior projects and trade supply.

They are commonly used by upholsterers, furniture repairers, soft furnishing makers, interior businesses and customers replacing tired cushion inners.

For best results, choose the filling based on the cushion shape, how the cushion will be used and the finished feel required.
