Kapok Cushions & Boat Cushions

What are kapok cushions?

- All-natural comfort -

All-natural comfort - Kapok cushions make a great, sustainable alternative to polyester cushions. Free of harmful chemicals or synthetic fillings, our kapok cushions are the first choice if you're looking for a natural fibre marine cushion with extra comfort. A number of our boat cushions feature a signal flag pattern, allowing you to furnish your boat with extra nautical flair, as well use for on-board communication. They make great gifts for experienced and novice sailors alike who might want to brush up on their code flag know-how. Take a look at our kapok guide to find out how our cushions are made and what it is that makes each of our kapok boat cushions unique.

Why choose kapok for your nautical cushions?

- Cushions - Kapok vs cotton - -

Enhance your boat's interior design and furnish it with marine cushions made of kapok fibre and you too will enjoy all the advantages this material has to offer. The ecological filling consists of washed natural kapok fibres that also make the cushions buoyant. But that's not all, the natural wax coating doesn't become damp or musty, so they won't start to smell on board with regular ventilation. The substances contained in the fibre also give it a natural protection to prevent mould and mites from clinging to it. Top that off with the fact that our kapok cushions are very compact, meaning you can easily store them on board, and you'll never choose another material for your sailing boat cushions again! 

How do you clean kapok fiber?

It's pretty unusual to find a washing machine on a boat, which is a good thing, as it's not recommended putting kapok cushions or pillows in the machine. Be gentle and your kapok cushion will last for many years! Clean by hand with a damp cloth, lukewarm water and a little soap.
