If your existing cushions still have good basic foam but have lost their appearance, color or comfort, we can reupholster them with new fabric and covers. A reupholstery gives your cushions a new lease of life without you having to invest in brand new production. We work with durable and UV-resistant fabrics that can withstand salt water, sun and moisture, and we sew new covers with exactly the same fit as the original, or better if you want an updated look. If necessary, we also change the foam to improve ergonomics and comfort. The result is cushions that feel and look like new, at a lower price than brand new.
New Covers & Improved Cushions
Have your cushions become worn, stained or lost comfort? Instead of buying new ones, we can reupholster your existing cushions:
- New covers in premium fabrics
- New foam (HR44, HR38, memory foam)
- Improved ergonomics
- New zippers & seams
- Reinforced edges & better fit
Reupholstering is a cheaper and more sustainable option that extends the life of the dunes.
Boat cushions for all types of boats
We manufactures and renovates boat cushions for all types of boats in Gothenburg and along the entire West Coast. Whether you own a powerboat, sailboat, day cruiser, or hardtop boat, we customize each pad to the exact dimensions and comfort level you desire. Each project is built using premium foam and marine fabrics that can withstand salt water, UV radiation and daily use, making our cushions a long-term choice for boaters who want both quality and a perfect fit. Our extensive experience allows us to recommend the right combination of materials for your boat, resulting in a longer lifespan and a more exclusive result than mass-produced cushions.
We provide professional advice to help you choose the best material to withstand harsh marine conditions, sun, rain and salt water.
Our Work Process, Material Selection & Expertise for Boat Cushions in Gothenburg
Making great boat cushions requires more than just new covers or a nice fabric. It's about craftsmanship, precision and a method that ensures a perfect fit. At Marstrands Marintextil, we work according to an optimized work process that we have refined over many years, and which has made us an obvious choice for boat owners in Gothenburg.
Our work always starts with a careful analysis of the boat's seating surfaces, angles and existing cushions. In many cases we use old cushions as a template, but in new production we create completely new templates directly in the boat. You can read more about our other services here:
Once the shape is determined, we cut the foam to the right density depending on whether the cushion is to be used in a cockpit, ruff or sun deck. The covers are then sewn from marine-grade materials adapted to the West Coast climate, and each cushion is test-fitted before delivery to ensure perfect results.
How much do boat cushions cost?
The price of new boat cushions or upholstery in Gothenburg is influenced by several important factors relating to the choice of materials, the work process and the design of the cushions. Every boat and every cushion is different, so the cost is always based on your boat and your specific needs. Below are the key points that determine the price when you order customized boat cushions or upholstery from us.
- Number of pads and their exact dimensions
- Shape and complexity of the pads (straight, rounded or angled)
- Choice of foam: HR44, HR38, memory foam or combinations
- Choice of fabric: Sauleda, Sunbrella, Swela or marine faux leather
- If you order new production or reupholstery of existing cushions
Based on these factors, we always provide a fixed quote, so you know exactly what the cost will be.
Warranty & Quality Test - Why Our Cushions Last Longer
Before a cushion leaves our workshop, it goes through several quality tests. We check seams, zippers, corner tension and foam recovery. Read more about our guarantees and conditions here:
→ Warranty & Conditions
To ensure weather resistance, we test the materials in environments that correspond to saltwater splashes, humid nights and strong sun - something that is particularly important in the Gothenburg archipelago. We use standards from external testing institutes such as:
– Silvertex
– Scandinavian Alcantara
