Choosing the right garden cushions

Which garden cushions are the best fit for you and your outdoor space?

Life cushions: smart design, ultimate comfort

A comfortable seat is the foundation of relaxed outdoor living. Whether you’re enjoying a book in the morning sun, having a long dinner with friends, or stepping outside for five quiet minutes with a cup of coffee – comfort makes all the difference.

At Life Outdoor Living, we put just as much care into what’s inside a cushion as we do into the fabric around it. Every seat and back cushion features smart design, premium materials, and years of expertise in outdoor comfort. You can choose from three types of outdoor covers – All-weather Textilene, Soltex, Comforma and Bouclé – but inside, they’re all equally well engineered.

Our cushions

Garden cushions that invite you to stay outside longer

What’s inside our cushions?

Our seat cushions are made with SG24 polyurethane foam – a type of foam known for its high resilience. SG24 refers to the foam’s density (24 kg per m³), which indicates quality rather than firmness. That’s a common misconception: the ‘firmness’ of a cushion depends on how the foam rebounds, not on its weight.

Around the foam, there’s a layer of Fiberfill – a soft polyester filling that gives the cushion its sleek shape and adds extra comfort. This layer is carefully bonded to the foam to keep everything neatly in place. Fiberfill is soft to the touch, resilient, and quick-drying – perfect for outdoor use. And just as important: it’s hygienic and resistant to mould and bacteria.

The entire core is enclosed in a dense, antibacterial polyester inner cover. This protective layer keeps the interior clean and safe. Replacing the outer cover? We’ll provide a new zippered antibacterial cover as well, so everything stays properly sealed.

And what about the back cushion?

That’s built a little differently. Instead of foam, we use a soft, voluminous filling similar to Fiberfill, designed to give you that gentle, comfortable support in your back. Just like the seat cushions, the back cushion is also enclosed in the same antibacterial inner cover.

Smart down to the details:

  • Water-permeable bottom made of textilene for faster drying

  • Rust-free zipper in a matching colour

  • Some back cushions feature an anti-slip layer to stay in place

  • Available in three thicknesses: Medium, Large, and XXL – tailored to our sets and your seating preferences

Our cushion fabrics

Our collection includes three different cushion fabrics, each with its own unique benefits. Naturally, all three types of garden cushions are weather-resistant, colourfast, dirt-repellent, and washable. Still, they differ in look, feel, and specific characteristics.

All-weather Textilene cushions

All-weather is our most durable fabric, designed for intensive outdoor use. It has a strong texture, a rugged finish, and dries quickly.

Thanks to its weather-resistant and water-permeable properties, these cushions can be left outside all year round.

All-weather Soltex cushions

Soltex combines the best of both worlds: the soft feel of indoor fabric with the technical benefits of an outdoor material.

Soltex cushions can stay outside for the whole summer season, so you're ready to relax in comfort the moment the sun comes out.

All-weather Comforma cushions

Comforma feels luxurious and soft, with the look of an indoor fabric. Perfect for stylish lounging in the open air.

These cushions are the softest choice for use under a veranda or covered terrace.

All-weather Bouclé cushions

This rich, woven bouclé texture feels just as luxurious and soft as the bouclé you know from indoor cushions – but it’s specially developed for long-term outdoor use.

All-weather Bouclé is our softest choice for outdoor living.

Step outside without a care – every season again

Whether it’s springtime or a crisp winter day, being outside just does something to you. A moment away from the rush, some fresh air, time to recharge. And that only really works when you’re sitting comfortably. That’s why we don’t make ordinary cushions – we create cushions that invite you. To stay. To grab another coffee. Or simply to do nothing at all.

With the right cushions, your outdoor space doesn’t just look good – it truly feels like yours. So go ahead and leave them out. Because the outdoors is waiting for you – and all you have to do is take a seat.
