Description
RX24/130 Yellow Foam Sheet
RX24/130 Yellow Foam Sheet is an economical, versatile upholstery foam widely used for sofa and chair carcase work, fixed backs, arm wraps, borders, seat platforms, headboards and general furniture padding.
Supplied in large 94″ × 80″ (240cm × 203cm) sheets, RX24/130 is a practical choice for professional upholsterers, furniture manufacturers, repair workshops and trade customers who need a dependable foam for general upholstery work.
The foam may occasionally vary slightly in colour between batches. This does not affect its specification or performance.
Practical Upholstery Foam for Furniture Manufacturing & Repair
RX24/130 is primarily designed for upholstery padding and furniture construction rather than as a premium everyday seat-cushion foam.
It is particularly useful in areas where foam is required to provide padding, shape and a smooth upholstered finish over furniture frames and components.
Typical applications include:
- Sofa and chair carcase padding
- Inside and outside backs
- Fixed back cushions
- Arm wraps
- Sofa and chair borders
- Seat platforms
- Headboards
- Upholstered wall panels
- Furniture shaping and padding
- General upholstery repairs

RX24/130 Foam for Sofa & Chair Carcase Work
One of the most common uses for RX24/130 is sofa and chair carcase upholstery.
The foam can be cut and shaped around frames and furniture components to create a padded surface before fabric or vinyl is applied.
It is particularly useful for:
- Inside backs
- Outside backs
- Arm sections
- Borders
- Seat platforms
- Fixed upholstered panels
Its combination of versatility and economical pricing makes RX24/130 a useful general-purpose foam for both new furniture manufacture and traditional reupholstery work.
Foam for Arm Wraps, Borders & Furniture Padding
RX24/130 is well suited to areas of upholstered furniture where foam is required to add shape and padding without the need for a higher-density seating grade.
It can be trimmed, profiled and bonded to furniture components, making it useful for arm wraps, front and side borders, back panels and other upholstered sections.
For professional upholsterers, keeping full sheets in the workshop allows individual pieces to be cut as required for different jobs.
RX24/130 Foam for Headboards & Upholstered Panels
RX24/130 is also suitable for padded headboards and decorative upholstered panels.
Different thicknesses can be selected depending on the depth of padding required, allowing the foam to be used for both relatively shallow upholstered panels and deeper padded headboard designs.
It provides a consistent surface beneath upholstery fabric and can be cut to suit straight, curved and shaped designs.
Is RX24/130 Suitable for Seat Cushions?
RX24/130 is principally an upholstery padding and furniture carcase foam rather than our first recommendation for a main everyday sofa or chair seat cushion.
It can be used for seat platforms and certain specialist applications, but where the foam itself forms the main seating cushion, a higher-density upholstery grade will generally provide better long-term support and durability.
If you require foam specifically for a finished cushion, bench seat, window seat or similar project, our Foam Cut to Size service allows foam to be ordered to your individual measurements.
