Welacer 20 lb Shredded Memory Foam Filler for Bean Bags, Pillows and DIY

Key points

Refresh a bean bag chair, sofa or favourite pillow with Welacer shredded memory foam filler. The 20 lb package expands to about 8 cubic feet, giving you filling for a range of home projects, from topping up a seat to making plush toys or craft pieces.

Made from 100% shredded memory foam with no gel particles, the pieces have a soft, viscoelastic feel and low rebound. Their larger, neatly cut shape is designed to reduce broken residue, making this a practical choice when you want cushioning that can be fluffed and arranged by hand.

Need a refill that works across more than one kind of project? The mixed colours and shapes suit both functional refills and creative DIY use, while the expanded volume helps you plan how much filling to set aside.

Care & maintenance

After opening the vacuum-packed filling, give it time to expand, then separate any pieces that have stuck together by hand. This helps loosen the foam before you distribute it through a cushion, pet bed or bean bag. The filling is described as durable and does not require washing, making it straightforward to maintain as a refill material.

For a smaller pillow or plush toy, add the foam gradually and adjust the amount until the item has the feel and shape you want. For floor cushions, bean bag chairs and other large pieces, plan on using multiple amounts of filler as needed. If you are refreshing several items, the approximately 8 cubic feet of expanded foam gives you a useful reference for dividing the supply.

Everyday use

Use the shredded foam to refill bean bag chairs and sofas, add cushioning to pillows or dog beds, and stuff plush toys or handmade projects. It offers an alternative to replacing a whole cushion or seat when the goal is to replenish its filling instead. In a living room, for example, you can add foam to a well-used bean bag chair, fluff and reposition the pieces, then use any remaining filling for a pillow or craft project.

The soft, low-rebound feel makes the material suited to items where flexible, mouldable filling is useful. Unlike choosing a finished cushion in a fixed shape, loose foam lets you work directly with the item you are filling and distribute the material where it is needed. The assorted colours and shapes are mixed at random, so they bring a varied look to projects where the filling may be visible.

Questions before you buy

How much space does the 20 lb package fill? It expands to about 8 cubic feet. The amount you use will depend on the size and fullness you want for each item.

How should I prepare the foam after opening it? Let it expand after unpacking, then separate pieces by hand where they have clung together. You can then add the foam gradually and fluff it into place.

Can it be used for items besides bean bags? Yes. It is also intended for sofas, pillows, dog beds, plush toys, crafts and other DIY projects that use loose filling.

Should you buy it?

Choose Welacer shredded memory foam when you want a versatile refill for seating, cushions or handmade projects, rather than a finished cushion with a fixed shape. Its 20 lb package expands to about 8 cubic feet, and the same soft, hand-fluffable filling can serve several uses around the home. It is especially useful for refreshing bean bags and sofas or adding flexible cushioning to pillows, pet beds and plush creations.
