32 DNS Sponge

When you sit on a garden chair or sofa, the support provided by the cushion is not determined by its thickness alone. The density of the foam used inside the cushion also affects how it performs during use. 32 DNS foam, found in various Terazzi outdoor furniture models, refers to a filling material with a density of approximately 32 kg/m³.

It is important not to confuse the DNS value with firmness. A 32 DNS rating does not directly indicate how firm or soft the foam is. Two cushions with the same density may feel different depending on their thickness and the seating structure of the furniture in which they are used. Therefore, when comparing products, it is more useful to consider the DNS value together with cushion dimensions, seat depth, and backrest design.

Advantages of 32 DNS Foam

For garden furniture used intensively during the summer months, the ability of cushions to maintain their shape and provide consistent support is closely related to foam density.

32 DNS foam is suitable for many different designs in the Terazzi collection. It is used in cushions of various sizes, ranging from dining chairs and deep-seated sofas to compact garden sets and selected sun loungers.

Use and Care of 32 DNS Cushions

One of the most important factors to consider with outdoor cushions is moisture. If a cushion gets wet from rain, it should not be left in an enclosed, poorly ventilated environment for an extended period. Instead, it should be placed somewhere with sufficient airflow to dry properly. When the cushions will not be used for an extended period, storing them clean and dry is also beneficial for their maintenance.

In Terazzi products, foam and cushion fabric are considered two separate characteristics. Many models featuring 32 DNS foam also use water-repellent and stain-resistant outer fabrics. This water-repellent property comes from the structure of the fabric itself, not from the DNS rating of the foam.

Which Terazzi Products Use 32 DNS Foam?

Rather than being limited to a single design style, 32 DNS cushions can be found across a wide range of furniture in the Terazzi collection.

For example, the Zeus Wood Garden Sofa Set, distinguished by its Iroko wood construction, and the Rodos Rattan Garden Sofa Set, featuring Wintech Rattan weaving, both use 32 DNS cushions despite having very different frame structures. These two examples alone demonstrate that foam density is a feature independent of the furniture’s exterior design.

For larger spaces where corner seating is preferred, the Venedik Garden Corner Set is one of the models that uses the same foam density. The use of 32 DNS foam also extends to dining sets. The Marina Garden Dining Set, designed with an aluminum frame and Luxio-Cord details, features 32 DNS cushions on its chairs.

Similar examples can be found among compact sets designed for smaller balconies and terraces. The Efes Mini Garden Sofa Set, despite its more compact dimensions, is among the models that use the same foam density. Among relaxation furniture, the Artemis Plus Sun Lounger is an example of how 32 DNS cushioning is also used in sun loungers.

When choosing a product, rather than focusing solely on whether it features 32 DNS foam, it is more useful to consider the cushion dimensions, seat height, frame material, and intended area of use together. Different seating configurations can be explored within the Garden Seating Group collection.
