We just covered a memory foam matress last summer. The customer
requested an upolstery fabric though. I'm curious why you are going after
Sunbrella? In the years we have been in the business I can't recall any
customer wanting Sunbrella for interior cushions. Sometimes for cockpit
cushions for obvious reasons but is standard marine grade Sunbrella.

Followup to my own post:

Apparently Glenn Raven Mills (Sunbrella) has just come out with a new line
of interior fabrics.

A guy I'm working with in St. Pete loaned me the new book, just received
from his supplier, saying that these were in response to unsatisfactory
results (fraying, durability issues) with the first batch (released a few
years ago).

Unfortunately for our purposes immediately (covering new custom foam
Tempur-Pedic look-alike mattresses), the stuff is way too stiff, and will
have to be reserved for salon and other seating surfaces.

However, that said, there's an extensive line of very attractive fabrics
now
available with the purported wear, stain resistance, etc. characteristics
of
the exterior stuff but of a more suitable weight and style for interiors
or
sunrooms and the like.
