Upholstery Webbing Straps for Bed & Sofa Chair Seat Elastic PE Plastic Rubber Polypropylene Furniture Webbing Weaving
Product Descriptions
Meaning: "Webbing" refers to strong, woven strips of material. In furniture making, these straps are
stretched across a frame to form a flexible, supportive base that the cushioning (foam, padding) then
sits on top of. They are a critical part of the furniture's foundation.
Application: This specifies the intended use.
Sofa/Chair Seat: This is the most common use, providing the primary support for someone sitting
down.
Bed Base: Used in some bed frames (especially divans or platform beds) to support the mattress,
allowing for flex and airflow.
Key Property: This is the defining characteristic. Unlike non-elastic jute or polypropylene webbing,
elastic webbing is designed to stretch and rebound.
Benefit: It provides a flexible, "give-and-take" support that absorbs impact and offers a more
comfortable, bouncy sitting experience. It is crucial for chairs and sofas where comfort and flexibility
are desired.
This describes the material composition:
Polypropylene (PP): A very common, strong, and durable synthetic plastic polymer. It provides the
core strength and structure of the webbing.
Polyethylene (PE) / Rubber: These are the elastic components. They are often either:
Coated onto the polypropylene strands to make them elastic.
Woven together with polypropylene threads to create a hybrid strap that has the strength of PP
and the stretch of rubber/PE.
The phrase "PE Plastic Rubber" likely refers to a synthetic elastic compound designed to mimic
rubber's properties with better consistency and weather resistance.
