Yes; one significant environmental benefit of using polyurethane foam is its ability to reduce energy loss due to its insulating properties. This can result in lower energy bills for buildings where it's used. Additionally, recycled pieces can be repurposed in various ways meaning it has a much lower environmental impact than other materials when disposed of properly.
