IMPROVED COMPRESSIBLE FURNITURE ASSEMBLIES

摘要

An object of the present invention is to provide compressible furniture assemblies. In accordance with an aspect of the invention, there is provided a method of packaging a compressible furniture assembly for self-assembly, the method having the following steps: forming a compressible furniture assembly having a compressible filler material enclosed by a corresponding air permeable enclosure; aligning the air permeable enclosure in the correct position for assembly; enclosing the compressible furniture assembly in a non-air permeable enclosure; removing air from the non-air permeable enclosure through an opening in the non-air permeable enclosure using an air removal means until the furniture assembly is compressed to a pre-determined threshold; and sealing the opening of the non-air permeable enclosure to prevent expansion of the compressible furniture assembly using a sealing means.
