Bean Bag With Filling

If your bean bag with filling starts to go flat it is time for a refill. There are several different types of fillings for bean bags but one that works well is polystyrene beads or EPS (short for Expanded Polypropylene). This type of bead is reusable and recyclable. It can be purchased at any store that carries craft supplies such as Michael’s and Hobby Lobby. It is also widely available online.

The benefit of using EPS as a bean bag filling is that it can be broken down and melted into small pieces. This process allows the material to be recycled at every stage of its life. This makes it more sustainable than other materials used in bean bag chairs such as buckwheat and corn.

Another advantage of EPS is that it is highly resistant to compression. This means that even when you sit in the chair for a long period of time it will not flatten as quickly as some other bean bag fillers. This is a very important factor to consider when purchasing a bean bag to ensure longevity of the product.

When it comes to bean bag filling, some people prefer them to be half filled for more of a “sink-in” feeling while others like theirs to be full and firm. Whatever your preference, it is easy to add more beans or pellets if your original fill begins to deflate.

The trick to mess -free bean bag refilling is to work in a location where any spillage can be contained and easily cleaned up. A bathroom or bathtub is a great choice as the water will help the EPS beads or pellets to sink down faster and avoid spreading everywhere.
