Products — Poufs & Bean Bag Chairs
FAQ
•What filler material lasts longest in bean bag chairs for commercial use?
Virgin EPS beads (3-5 mm, density 11-15 g/l) outperform recycled foam by 2-3 years. For HoReCa we recommend dual-chamber design: inner liner with EPS, outer washable cover with YKK zipper. Russian factories ship beads in vacuum-sealed PE bags inside the cover — refill bag (5-10L) is standard accessory for projects.
•What outer fabric should I choose for outdoor poufs?
For outdoor and pool areas use 600D polyester with PU coating (waterproof 1000 mm H2O) or marine-grade acrylic (Sunbrella-class) with UV resistance 1500+ hours. Indoor: velour, microfibre, faux leather. Russian factories test fabrics to GOST 30157 colorfastness — request the test report before bulk order.
•Are poufs available with removable washable covers?
Yes — virtually all models have full-perimeter YKK zipper covers, machine-washable at 30°C. Inner liner with EPS stays untouched. For hospitality projects we offer a second matching cover (MOQ 50) to rotate during laundry cycles. Specify zipper colour and brand (YKK vs SBS) in your PO.
•What is the typical fill volume and seat capacity?
Standard sizes: small pouf 200L (1 child), medium 320L (1 adult), large bean bag 450L (1 adult + child), XXL lounge 600L (2 adults). Seat capacity 80-150 kg. EPS density 11 g/l for soft sit, 15 g/l for firm support. Specify body weight target in your inquiry — affects bead grade choice.
•How are poufs packed and shipped to reduce container volume?
Poufs ship in vacuum-compressed bags inside flat cartons — saves 70-80% of container volume vs pre-filled. Customer fills locally with EPS beads (supplied separately or sourced regionally). One 40HQ container fits 400-600 compressed poufs vs 80-120 pre-filled. Cover-only shipment is also possible for buyers who source EPS locally.
•Are fire-retardant fillers and fabrics available?
Yes. FR-treated EPS beads (Crib 5 / BS 5852) and FR fabrics (EN 1021-1/2) are available with surcharge ~15-20%. Mandatory for UK hospitality, EU public spaces, and increasingly required in MENA hotels. Request the test report bundle (FR cert + Martindale + colorfastness) attached to commercial invoice.
•What MOQ and lead time should I expect?
MOQ from 50 pcs per model for standard colours; 100 pcs for custom fabric/colour. Lead time: 20-30 days production + export packing. EPS beads from Russian producers (Penoplex, TechnoNICOL) — bead supply lead time 5-7 days. Mixed-container orders (up to 10 SKUs) accepted from 200 pcs total.
