There’s nothing quite as comforting as sharing moments and creating memories in an inviting outdoor space, which is why we developed these durable patio furniture pillows to help your family make the most of its backyard retreat.
These outdoor cushions are constructed from performance fabrics designed to resist moisture and UV rays, and are easy to maintain if stained or dirty.
Waterproof
If your climate often experiences rainy weather, waterproof outdoor patio furniture pillows could be beneficial. Made of fabrics designed to withstand inclement conditions like weather and fade resistance while being less maintenance intensive than their non-waterproof counterparts, waterproof cushions also protect from mildew and mold growth that often arises due to exposure.
Waterproof fabrics for outdoor cushions are specifically engineered to withstand large volumes of moisture while simultaneously wicking it away, keeping inner foam layers dry and safe from mould and mildew. Furthermore, waterproof fabric will repel harsh sunrays that could otherwise fade your cushions over time – with quick-drying capabilities so your furniture can quickly return after rainstorms or pool parties are finished reusing it – while still being soft to the touch and comfortable enough for all your family and guests to use when relaxing outside.
Add decorative pillows to your furniture to make the space more welcoming and relaxing. There is a wide range of shapes and sizes available, with colors and patterns tailored specifically to match existing outdoor furniture or add a splash of colour – some styles even feature buttons or tassels to further accentuate seating areas. Furthermore, decorative cushions can help conceal faded or mildewed outdoor cushions – giving your patio furniture a brand-new look without incurring new costs for new cushions!
As long as non-waterproof cushion fabrics can be washed easily, regular washings should be undertaken to protect them from mold and mildew growth and ensure your outdoor cushions look as good as new for longer. While waterproof cushions may be appropriate for patio and poolside furniture, for those lacking storage space to cover everything properly consider investing in furniture covers that fit securely over cushions and furniture, and are fastened securely so they can withstand strong winds.
Slipcovers for outdoor cushions provide another convenient and accessible solution, easily removable for washing at any time, protecting pillows from dust, dirt and stains while looking stylish too! Cover materials typically made of waterproof or stain-resistant fabric such as Sunbrella or Outdura are soft yet durable woven weaves designed to enhance the aesthetics of patio sets with embroidery or tufting to add even more visual interest.
UV-Resistant
Outdoor patio furniture cushions and pillows endure significant outdoor wear and tear, from wet conditions like rain and humidity, as well as exposure to UV rays from the sun’s powerful rays, which can cause their colors or patterns to erode over time. When this occurs, your pillows or cushions can fade.
To avoid discoloration and fading in your cushion covers and pillows, choose UV-resistant fabrics. Some fabrics like solution-dyed acrylics can inherently resist damage caused by sunlight; their dye is integrated into their fibers so they’re less susceptible to wear-and-tear than fabrics dyed post production.
Storage covers can provide extra protection for your furniture during inclement weather, helping prevent heavy rain from seeping through cushions and protecting them from snow or hailfall. It’s best to do this before the bad weather strikes so cushions and pillows can be brought inside before becoming unusable outside.
Some fabrics and styles of furniture, like plastic, wood or wicker pieces, are more susceptible to moisture damage than others, which is why it’s crucial that cushions and pillows be checked at least every six months for any signs of wear or damage; that way you can take proactive steps such as replacing them or making repairs before they’re irreparably worn down or worn out.
Seasonal weather should never stop you from enjoying your backyard. That is why POLYWOOD cushions use materials that are resilient against dew drops, raindrops, and direct sunlight – such as dew pads and blown-fill polyester fiber woven fabric that create deep seating cushions with soft touches and can withstand all four seasons with ease.
Custom-sized cushion covers from Outdoor Concepts ensure a perfect fit on your outdoor furniture, preventing moisture permeation and prolonging its life. Watertight and UV-resistant to preserve vibrant fabric colors. When cleaning outdoor cushion covers, please follow manufacturer or care label instructions, otherwise use mild laundry detergent in warm water for gentle washing.
Durable
Outdoor furniture must withstand rain, snow and UV rays without disintegrating over time. Many companies utilize materials which can withstand these elements without becoming discolored with age such as wicker, aluminum and teak; some brands even utilize outdoor fabrics resistant to fading, mildew and moisture for optimal customer satisfaction. Some manufacturers even provide warranties as an added measure to guarantee customer satisfaction.
Some outdoor patio furniture pillows are made from synthetic materials like polyester. Polyester is an economical and long-term material ideal for outdoor pillows due to its affordability and resilience, making it a top pick. Plus, synthetics tend to be easier to maintain than natural fibers while remaining colorful longer under direct sunlight. Other durable choices include cotton canvas and solution-dyed acrylic fabrics which offer exceptional resistance against water, mildew, UV light exposure.
Another way to add durability to outdoor pillows is selecting fabric treated with waterproofing agents. This will keep the pillow dry in case of sudden raindrops or an accidental splash from muddy hands; additionally, waterproofing sprays help the pillow resist mold and mildew growth and prolong its life span.
Water-repellant-treated cushions can also be protected from dirt and stains by applying a stain-repelling product, available from most home improvement and garden centers, with its application typically performed using either a soft cloth or paintbrush.

Comfortable
Make sure that the fabric used to reupholster outdoor patio furniture or replace cushions is designed specifically for use outdoors. Search for stain-proof, fade-proof and UV protective options so your furniture will last through the seasons while remaining comfortable for years.
Sunbrella and Outdura fabrics are designed to withstand harsh weather conditions by employing acrylic fibers engineered with color pigment and UV stabilizers to withstand fading, mildew and mold growth. Their high quality weave helps them repel moisture so you stay dry and breathable! They come in an assortment of colors and textures, from smooth flat-weaves to sailcloth.
DIY-ers looking to reupholster chair cushions or chaise lounge pillows themselves should be realistic about their sewing abilities and choose an “easy” or “simple” pattern and follow instructions carefully if attempting a do-it-yourself reupholstery project, since overdoing it could result in cushions falling apart quickly and needing replacement quickly.
When looking for cushion fabrics, opt for those that feature stain-resistant properties to avoid permanent stains from coffee spills, food spills and other everyday accidents. Materials that can withstand stains include olefin, vinyl and texteline; spray your covers with 3M Scotchgard protector before using them as well.
A superior cushion is comfortable and supportive, helping prevent strain on both your back and neck. By adding extra cushions to your patio furniture, inviting relaxation becomes even easier for yourself and guests alike. Some cushions feature foam filling while others boast polyester fiber fill for soft comfort. If you prefer plush seating with lots of cushiony support and plush padding then look for deep seating cushions featuring combinations of foam pads with blow-fill polyester fiber for optimal comfort.
