Elastic Webbing is used in the furniture industry for support in the seat and back areas of sofas. Elastic webbing is made from rubber threads and polypropylene yarn. The advantages of webbing over springs are in terms of costs and ease of installation.
The stretch or elongation aspects of our webbing range from 10% to 100% and the widths available are up to 120mm. For back areas of sofas, higher elongation webbing are used (from 90% to 100%) while for seat areas, the lower stretch webbing (from 10% to 80%) are used.
The trend is towards wider width webbing (from 60mm to 80mm) instead of the 50mm.This is mainly due to seating comfort and wider widths mean lesser material used. Specialist products such as pre-cut straps, pre-assembled clipped or hooked straps, and marked webbing can also be supplied to order.
