30x50cm Cushion Inserts — Hollowfibre Fill, Even End-to-End Profile
The rectangular format exposes a fill weakness that square pads don't have. In a poorly specified pad, the fill compresses toward the centre over time and leaves the short ends thin and flat. Anyone who has tried to dress a hotel bed with rectangular scatter cushions and found them hollow at the top and bottom edges after a few months knows exactly what this looks like. The cause is always the same: fill grade and outer casing.
The 30x50cm pad here uses Virgin Conjugated Hollowfibre, where each fibre has a spiral crimp that bounces back under compression rather than staying compressed. The Corovin non-woven outer holds the fill distributed across the full length of the pad — including both short ends. The fill doesn't migrate. The pad holds a consistent profile from one end to the other through regular use.
At 30x50cm (approximately 12x20 inches), this is the standard rectangular scatter cushion size for the UK market. It's used on hotel and holiday let beds placed in front of sleeping pillows; on sofas as a bolster or back cushion inside a rectangular cover; and in upholstery applications where a non-square insert is required. For the sizing rule: use a matching 30x50cm cover for a firm, full finish. For a slightly softer drape, a 32x52cm cover works well. See Bolster and Rectangular Cushion Inserts — A Practical Guide for more guidance.

Ideal For
Hotels and holiday let operators dressing beds with rectangular scatter layers; hospitality buyers needing bolster inserts for sofa back cushions; upholsterers working with rectangular cover specifications; interior stylists requiring a reliable non-square insert in a standard UK size.
Care Instructions
Spot clean with a damp cloth. Air dry flat — do not machine wash. At the 30x50cm dimension, the rectangular shape makes flat drying important to prevent distortion; place on a dry towel and turn once during drying.
Why Buy
The 30x50cm size is one that most bulk buyers find difficult to source with confidence — it's either sold as an afterthought with no fill specification, or it's a generic pad that fails at the ends within months. We make these in Bolton with the same Virgin Conjugated Hollowfibre spec as the square range. Even fill end to end. Consistent on reorders. For hospitality buyers stocking beds across multiple rooms, that consistency is the only thing that matters.
FAQs
Why do rectangular pads go flat at the ends faster than square pads go flat at corners?
Because the fill has more distance to migrate in a rectangular pad, and the short ends have less structural resistance to compression. Without crimp structure in the fill fibre, the fill gradually concentrates in the centre. Corovin's outer holds fill in place and Virgin Conjugated Hollowfibre's crimp pushes back under compression — both working together is what prevents the end-hollow failure.
What cover size does a 30x50cm pad fit?
A 30x50cm pad fits a 30x50cm cover for a firm, full result. For a softer drape, use in a 32x52cm cover. For a hotel bed-dressing application where the pad sits inside a decorative cover in front of sleeping pillows, the matching size gives the cleanest finish.
Is this the same as a bolster cushion insert?
The 30x50cm is a rectangular scatter pad, not a traditional bolster (which is typically cylindrical). It's used in rectangular cushion covers rather than bolster cases. If you need a different rectangular dimension, contact us — we can discuss custom sizes as we manufacture in-house.
Is 30x50cm a standard size in the UK?
Yes — it's the most common rectangular scatter cushion size used in UK hospitality and domestic settings. Most 30x50cm cushion covers from UK suppliers are cut to fit this insert size.
Can I order a large quantity with custom specifications?
Yes. Call 01204 653023 or email info@abtex.co.uk. We manufacture in-house so custom dimensions and quantities are something we can quote on. iwocaPay available for B2B deferred payment.
