Frameless sofa in vacuum packaging: the principle of operation
A frameless sofa is a cover with a filler. Without wooden frames and metal springs that would interfere with compressing the structure, the product can be compressed to 3-5 times its original volume. That is why frameless furniture in vacuum packaging takes up so little space compared to the finished product.
The compression process takes place with an industrial pump: air is removed, the material is compressed, the sofa takes the form of a dense cylinder. No chemical processes - only the physics of compression.
At Sita Furniture, this approach is used for the entire Horns line: it is a practical solution that simplifies delivery without any impact on the quality of the finished product.
Why is a frameless sofa in vacuum packaging so dense
The filler in a compressed state forms a solid mass with serious internal resistance. This is normal: this state indicates the tightness of the package and the integrity of the material.
A frameless sofa in a vacuum can weigh from 15 to 35 kg and at the same time take up the volume of a tourist backpack. Sita customers often choose the Horns Base 200×100 cm model precisely because of the balance of multifunctional use and size, but they are even more surprised by how compact the sofa is in transportation.
What happens after unpacking a vacuumed sofa
Unpacking takes a few minutes, but it takes 24 to 72 hours to fully restore its shape. A few practical recommendations:
1) Unpack immediately in a permanent place - after restoring the shape, it is inconvenient to move the product.
2) Do not put heavy objects on the sofa for the first 24 hours: the filler should be evenly distributed inside the cover.
3) If after 72 hours the shape remains uneven - slightly knead the surface with your hands.
4) The slight smell of fresh material will disappear within a few days.
5) Sofas in a vacuum after complete restoration are no different from furniture in a standard box.
