HOW TO CHOOSE A FILLING TYPE
There are three different filling types to choose from with our bespoke dog bed design service. The standard fibre filling is the most cost-effective – but depending on your dog’s age or health needs, you may want to upgrade to a foam or memory foam filling.
FIBRE
Compressed fibre pads deliver high rebound with our custom dog beds, and are made with 100% polyester fibre (70% of which is derived from recycled plastic bottles). Please note that not all sizes are available with fibre filling. For sizes which do not fit, we will automatically upgrade your order to foam filling.
HIGH DENSITY FOAM
High density open cell foam is more expensive than fiber but is longer lasting and more suitable for heavier dogs. When compressed, it can quickly return to its original state due to its unrestricted airflow. This filling is also soft to the touch, breathable, flexible, and can easily conform to objects.
MEMORY FOAM
We use high quality, medical pressure care grade memory foam with a base layer of high density 39/200 foam. A memory foam dog bed can mold to and support your dog’s body during rest. It may also make a good orthopaedic bed for dogs suffering from the following:
- Arthritis
- Hip dysplasia
- Back or muscle problems
- Joint problems
- Soft tissue injuries
Ideally used with the PU fabric option, as it has the ability to stretch with the memory foam. We don’t recommend this filling with PVC options.
CUSTOM DOG BED COVERS
Choose from three different covers depending on your needs and budget. Our standard cover is vinyl, but you may wish to upgrade if you need something a little more durable.
PU
Medical grade waterproof PU that has been heat sealed for excellent incontinence protection. Our PU fabric is flame-resistant, UV inhibited, anti-fungal, and efficiently repels odour and dirt. Easily cleaned with a mild detergent and a cloth. A flap covers the zip down one of the long sides.
PVC (TOUGH CHEW)
Our toughest cover for custom dog beds (as seen with our bestselling Tough Chew products). This is 450GSM PVC, fully sealed and sewn closed for effective tamper-proofing and to keep the core clean. Chew resistant and great for destructive dogs!
- Fire Resistance
- UV protection
- Antifungal properties
- Phthalate free
- Antistatic
- Dry Finish
- Anti-slip
- Low Temperature protection
VINYL
This is a vinyl coated polyester and it’s a waterproof light fabric (103gsm/4oz per sq meter). Great for easy clean-ups and the zipped cover is super handy if you need to remove it.
