Re-Usable Covers For Upholstered Furniture
Posted by MCC on June 6th, 2009 at 07:11am
United Fabrics has signed a deal to become the exclusive distributor in the United States for a new revolutionary protective cover for upholstered products. The plastic cover can be used to deliver or store items such as sofas and chairs and can be reused literally dozens of times if used properly.
The covers are also waterproof and have padding in the areas where it’s needed to protect the furniture. They’re also equipped with handles that will make moving and delivering furniture much easier.
The new covers invented by Andrew Hurst of RapCo, can be used to envelope a sofa within just minutes and if used responsibly, they will only average out to a few dollars per each use over their lifetime. RapCo won the “New Inventors” award from the People’s Choice Award, a television show that airs in Australia.
Not only will these new covers be more efficient than using plastic ones in the furniture industry, they are much more eco-friendly since they aren’t thrown away after each use.
