What materials are used in the JL&C Single Sofa construction?

The JL&C Single Sofa is built around a multi-layer board frame — a precision-cut, engineered board core that provides structural rigidity, dimensional stability and long-term resistance to warping or creaking under continuous daily use. The seat and back cushions are filled with high-resilience (HR) foam, rated for extended seating loads and designed to return to shape reliably after each use. The outer surface is upholstered in premium short-pile velvet, with every panel cut to pattern alignment and double-stitched at all seam lines. This material combination is chosen specifically for both aesthetic quality and durability in residential and contract environments.

What is the difference between a multi-layer board frame and a solid wood frame?

A multi-layer board frame is constructed from multiple bonded layers of engineered wood, giving it excellent dimensional consistency, high resistance to humidity-related movement and a uniform load-bearing performance across the full frame. Solid wood frames, while traditionally valued for their natural character, can vary in density and are more susceptible to seasonal moisture expansion and contraction. For upholstered seating — where the frame must maintain precise shape under continuous use and never creak through its joints — a multi-layer board construction often delivers more consistent long-term performance, particularly in hotel and commercial contract applications.

What does high-resilience (HR) foam mean, and why does it matter for a sofa?

High-resilience foam, commonly referred to as HR foam, is a foam grade that combines a firm load-bearing core with a consistent elasticity that allows the foam to recover its original shape rapidly after compression. In practical terms, this means the seat and back cushions of the JL&C Single Sofa will not develop a permanent seated impression over time — a common failure point in sofas built with standard-density foam. For hotel and contract use where the sofa may be sat on hundreds of times per year, HR foam is the industry-standard specification for maintaining both comfort and cushion shape throughout the full service life of the piece.

Can I customise the size of the single sofa?

Yes — all key dimensions are independently adjustable with no additional tooling charge. These include overall seat width, seat depth, seat height from the floor, arm height and total back height. Standard seat widths for the JL&C Single Sofa range from 75 cm to 105 cm, but any dimension outside this range can be produced to order. Simply provide your required measurements when enquiring and our team will confirm feasibility and a formal quotation within one business day.

What velvet colours and fabric options are available?

The JL&C Single Sofa is available in premium short-pile velvet across a curated palette of over 30 colours, including soft neutrals such as ivory, oat and warm taupe; mid-tones such as sage green, slate blue, dusty rose and terracotta; and deep saturated tones including forest green, burgundy, navy and charcoal. Both smooth-pile and structured-pile velvet surface finishes are available. For project orders requiring a colour match to a specific interior specification, custom colour matching is available — physical samples are dispatched for client approval before production is confirmed.
