FLEXIBLE POLYURETHANE FOAMS
Open cell polyurethane foams are softer and more elastic than closed cell foams, as well as being more compressible. At The Foam Company, we supply most grades of flexible foams and can order a specific foam of your choice (by order) - from economical, low-density foams to premium, long-lasting high quality flexible foams - both in soft and firm harnesses. We can cut flexible foams to size or profile upon request.
Premium gel-infused memory foams and overlays moulds itself to the contours of the body - commonly used for the creation of special surface cushioning effects in applications such as pillows, furniture cushions, armrest components, mattress overlays, and more. We also supply premium acoustic foam panels for achieving quality sound and noise control, absorbing reverberation and echo, and providing softer, clearer, and purer sound.

Semi-rigid and High-Resilience Polyurethane Foams:
Low/Standard Density Foams
Polyurethane foam, particularly flexible polyurethane foam with a density of 1.0 to 1.5 pounds per cubic foot, offers a soft and lightweight solution. This low-density foam is perfect for applications requiring comfort, such as cushioning and padding.
Ideal for both individual and commercial use, it's readily available from polyurethane foam suppliers in various forms, including sheets.

3. How do polyurethanes address climate change?
Polyurethanes play a crucial role in mitigating climate change through several impactful avenues. For instance,
These materials excel as highly effective insulators. When appropriately applied, they enhance the energy efficiency of buildings, resulting in reduced carbon emissions associated with heating and cooling.
Additionally, polyurethanes find widespread use in vehicle manufacturing, chosen not only for their aesthetic and comfort-enhancing properties but also for their lightweight nature. This lightweight characteristic translates to fuel savings as vehicles consume less energy, ultimately leading to decreased emissions.
