Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to systems and methods for packing furniture elements for shipping. A method of packing a furniture article includes compressing a block of high-density rebound foam forming the furniture article with a hydraulic press from an initial volume to a reduced volume. The reduced volume may be about one-fourth to about one-seventh of the initial volume and the furniture article may be substantially planar in the reduced volume. The method may also include reducing a pressure of the block of high-density rebound foam simultaneously to compressing the block of high-density rebound foam to form a compressed and pressurized furniture article. Further, the method may include rolling the compressed and pressurized furniture article in a wrapping to form a rolled furniture article for packing and shipping, and packing the rolled furniture article in a container for shipping.

Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to modular furniture and connectors for modular furniture.
