Italian term

imbottiti con fodera

Italian to English Other Manufacturing Product Packaging
The document contains a list of general terms of sale of furniture. The Packaging/Delivery clause reads:

I mobili sono imballati con Pluribol accoppiato a polietilene espanso, e profilo per bordi compreso, gli imbottiti con fodera di polietilene e scatola di cartone.

Since I'm not at all familiar with the terminology used, I attempted to translate it as:

.... packed with Pluribol and expanded polyethylene, including lining on the edges, ***gli imbottiti ***con polyethylene lining and carton

Any suggestions are very welcome !!

Thanks in advance !

Credo che per imbottiti si riferisca al "upholstery" cioé i cuscini di un divano o i schienali e che questi sono ricoperti con sacchi di polietilene e poi messi in scatole di cartone.
Quindi: the upholsteries are covered with polythene bags and packed in carboard boxes.
Peer comment(s):

agree reliable : I agree. "The furniture is packed in Pluribol and polyethylene foam with edge protectors included, and the cushions are "covered with polyethylene bags and packed in cardboard boxes" as you said.
