Benefits of Micro-Fibre over Polystyrene Beads
When removing some of the filling, the hollow-core fibre does not move or migrate, unlike micro-polystyrene beans which move to fill the gap. Polyester is also cooler and softer next to the body compared to foam or micro-polystyrene beads. There is no noise from the hollow-core fibre, so if a patient’s head is resting on a Cushion, it will be quiet.
To Use
Open the bag and take as much fibre as required. Reseal the bag to stop any insects, dirt or dust getting into the fibre.
