Mushroom Needle Punch Fabric 110grm 152cm width

Mushroom 110gsm Needle Punch Cushion Backing Fabric, 152cm Wide

Mushroom 110gsm Needle Punch Fabric is a wide, non-woven upholstery lining particularly suited to cushion backing panels, caravan seating, furniture reverse panels and concealed upholstery sections.

Its warm mushroom colour provides a subtle alternative to black or brown linings, making it useful for cream, beige, taupe and natural-coloured furniture.

Also known as Fibretex, needle-punch fabric is produced by mechanically entangling fibres to create a flexible sheet without conventional weaving or knitting.

The resulting fabric resists fraying and provides good resistance to tearing and abrasion. At 110gsm, it offers an intermediate fabric weight between Status Fabrics' lighter 100gsm and heavier 120gsm needle-punch grades.

Measuring 152cm wide, this mushroom non-woven fabric is available by the linear metre or in complete 100-metre rolls.

The combination of neutral colour, practical fabric weight and generous width makes this material useful for both upholstery production and furniture repairs.

Mushroom Cushion Backing Fabric

One of the principal applications for mushroom 110gsm needle punch is the underside of removable upholstery cushions.

Using a dedicated cushion backing fabric can reduce the quantity of expensive decorative upholstery material required while providing a consistent finish.

The mushroom colour is particularly suitable for lighter furniture, where a black underside may be more noticeable around the edges of loose cushions.

Typical applications include:

• Sofa and armchair cushion undersides
• Loose bench and window-seat cushions
• Cream, beige and neutral upholstered furniture
• Replacement cushion covers
• Upholstered seat pads
• Concealed cushion reverse panels

The 152cm width is especially useful when cutting larger cushion panels or arranging several smaller pieces across the fabric.

For new cushion interiors, explore Upholstery Foam Sheets.

Where additional softness is required, Polyester Wadding can be used to wrap suitable foam cushions.

Wadding should be attached to foam using compatible Heavy Duty Spray Adhesive to help prevent shifting and bunching during cover fitting.

Caravan and Motorhome Cushion Linings

Mushroom 110gsm Fibretex is also used for caravan cushion bases and suitable campervan seating.

Leisure-vehicle upholstery frequently includes removable cushions that are repositioned between seating and sleeping arrangements.

The underside of these cushions needs a suitable lining material, but it may not require the same decorative fabric used on the visible surfaces.

This neutral non-woven cushion backing provides a practical alternative and works particularly well with pale caravan and motorhome interiors.

Its flexible construction allows it to be cut into shaped panels, including tapered seat cushions and irregular furniture sections.

For cushions that slide on smooth supporting surfaces, consider 60cm Anti-Slip Upholstery Cloth. Ordinary needle punch should not be assumed to provide reliable anti-slip performance.

Furniture Reverse Panels and Dust Covers

Mushroom needle-punch fabric is also useful for concealed furniture areas where a tidy, neutral lining is preferred.

Applications include:

• Furniture back panels
• Sofa and armchair dust covers
• Concealed upholstery sections
• Internal furniture linings
• Suitable spring coverings
• Pull strips and reverse panels

The non-fraying construction simplifies cutting around corners, frame sections and fixing points.

For furniture bases and platforms, ensure that the material is supported by suitable suspension and padding.

Where spring protection is required, select suitable compressed polyester insulator or traditional upholstery felt rather than relying on needle-punch lining alone.

Comparing the Four Needle-Punch Fabrics

offers four specifications within its Needle Punch Fabric range.

This mushroom 110gsm fabric is a neutral-coloured, intermediate-weight option for cushion backs, caravan seating and furniture reverse panels.

For the same 152cm width in a heavier brown material, consider Brown 120gsm Needle Punch Fabric.

The Black 100gsm Needle Punch Fabric provides a lighter alternative at 140cm wide.

Where a heavier black lining is required, choose Black 120gsm Needle Punch Fabric.

Selecting by weight, colour, width and intended application helps avoid unnecessary material costs and provides a closer match to the furniture being manufactured or restored.

Cutting, Sewing and Fitting

Measure the cushion or furniture panel carefully before cutting, allowing sufficient material for seams, fixing and trimming.

The 152cm width allows efficient cutting layouts for larger cushion covers and upholstery panels.

Use suitable Upholstery Shears & Snips to cut the required shapes.

For sewn cushion undersides, select appropriate Upholstery Sewing Threads and test the intended seam construction before production.

For fixed furniture linings, position the material evenly and attach it to suitable timber framing using compatible Upholstery Staples.

Status Fabrics' Upholstery Tools range includes additional equipment for cutting, fitting and furniture restoration.
