Creating a new collection of outdoor cushions is an intricate process that combines artistry, functionality, and meticulous attention to detail. At Salt Sun Sand, we are passionate about delivering high-quality, durable, and aesthetically pleasing outdoor cushions that elevate any outdoor living space. Here, we’ll walk you through our production process and highlight the key elements our team prioritizes to ensure every cushion meets our high standards.
Step 1: Inspiration and Design
The journey begins with inspiration. Our design team draws from nature, global trends, and customer feedback to conceptualize a new collection. Mood boards featuring colour palettes, patterns, and textures guide the creative process.
Key Considerations:
- Seasonal trends: Ensuring the designs are in sync with current styles.
- Versatility: Creating cushions that complement various outdoor settings.
- Customer input: Listening to feedback to craft cushions that meet their needs and preferences.
Step 2: Material Selection
Choosing the right materials is critical for outdoor cushions. They need to withstand sun, rain, and frequent use without compromising comfort or appearance.
Key Considerations:
- Fabric: We use UV-resistant, water-repellent, and fade-proof fabrics to ensure longevity.
- Filling: Quick-dry foam and recycled polyester fillings provide comfort while resisting moisture and mildew.
- Trims and Zippers: Durable, rust-proof hardware ensures the cushions remain functional and stylish over time.
Step 3: Prototyping and Testing
Once designs and materials are finalized, prototypes are created. These samples undergo rigorous testing to ensure they meet our durability and aesthetic standards.
Key Considerations:
- Comfort tests: Ensuring the cushions provide the right balance of softness and support.
- Weather resistance: Exposing prototypes to UV light, rain, and varying temperatures to evaluate performance.
- Wear and tear: Simulating frequent use to check for fabric durability and colorfastness.
Step 4: Production
After prototypes pass all tests, full-scale production begins. Our skilled craftsmen bring the designs to life using precision cutting, sewing, and assembly techniques.
Key Considerations:
- Quality control: Every cushion undergoes a thorough inspection to check for consistency in stitching, fabric alignment, and finishing.
- Sustainability: We strive to minimize waste and use eco-friendly materials wherever possible.
Step 5: Collection Launch
With production complete, the cushions are photographed and showcased as part of the new collection. They are made available online and in-store, ready to transform outdoor spaces.
Key Considerations:
- Styling: Highlighting the versatility of the cushions through various outdoor settings.
- Packaging: Using recyclable materials to ship cushions securely and sustainably.
