Soft furniture refers to various types of furniture primarily made with wooden or metal frames, utilizing elastic materials (such as springs, serpentine springs, tension springs, etc.) and soft materials (such as coir, cotton, latex sponge, foam plastic, etc.) as major components. These are supplemented by binding materials (such as ropes, straps, burlap, etc.) for filling and bearing loads, and are finished with textiles (such as cotton, wool, synthetic fabrics, etc.) or leather materials (such as cowhide, sheepskin, synthetic leather, etc.). Notably, innovations in these materials were prominently featured at the recent Shanghai Furniture Expo.

 

Soft furniture mainly includes soft beds, mattresses, and sofas, which are essential daily living items in modern family living rooms and bedrooms. Besides providing comfortable functionality, soft furniture also features characteristics such as fashion, personalization, and artistry, becoming an important carrier of modern high-quality home living. This was clearly demonstrated in the diverse range of products showcased at the Shanghai Furniture Expo.
