About us

ORSA foam S.p.A. has been one of the leading companies in the flexible polyurethane foam sector for many years.
The company was founded in 1963 in Gorla Minore (Varese) under the name ORSA S.r.l. In 1999, following the transfer of this company, it assumed its current legal name, becoming ORSA foam S.p.A., while continuing to be part of ORSA Group, which also operates in other sectors such as nonwoven fabrics, automotive, plastic injection molding, and renewable energy.

For ORSA foam, the quality of production processes and finished products is one of the main objectives, as well as the desire to offer one of the largest existing product ranges, consisting of over 200 types, able to meet the most diverse applications and needs. Our products are supplied in block and roll configuration.
ORSA foam is not limited to the sale of the product but tends to offer a series of services that can meet the expectations of the market relying on a technical, marketing and commercial staff constantly aimed at solving all application problems. In order to always obtain the most complete customer satisfaction, ORSA foam continuously seeks for the highest quality, through the constant innovation of technologies and products, thus achieving the best performance in comfort.
All of this has always been pursued by maintaining a high attention to the environment, which has been perceived by ORSA foam as an ethical need, and first has an industrial need: the environment is something that must be protected and safeguarded even beyond what is required by law.

sustainability
ORSA foam has always been active in the field of sustainability and environmental protection.
Through the development of sustainable products, the adoption of specific production processes, and the implementation of conscious corporate policies, the company is firmly committed to contributing to environmental preservation.

For several years, the Research & Development department has been working on studying substances capable of bringing concrete benefits to the environment, creating products that use significant amounts of raw materials of vegetable origin or preventing waste production through the reuse of industrial by-products.

ORSA foam is also actively committed to the circular economy, a fundamental pillar for a sustainable future: an economy based on the reuse and recycling of existing materials for as long as possible.
In this way, it is possible to extend the product life cycle and make a concrete contribution to waste reduction.

This philosophy is primarily reflected in the production of R agglomerates, which have obtained the “Plastica Seconda Vita” certification.
The products are made through the collection, sanitization, and granulation of discarded mattresses, preventing them from ending up in landfills.

Our commitment to sustainability continues in 2025 with the launch of the new Recycla range.
Recycla promotes the concepts of the circular economy by integrating polyols derived from recycled discarded mattresses (Recycla® Polyether) or PET plastic (Recycla® Polyester) into its formulation.
But we don’t intend to stop there.

Our mission is to integrate repolyols, even in small percentages, into as many products as possible within our range.
This approach, applied to the large volumes of our annual production, allows us to achieve a significant impact in reducing the use of fossil raw materials.

By integrating recycled polyols, even in minimal amounts, ORSA foam demonstrates that every gesture counts.
Without compromising on characteristics and performance, we also invite our customers to join us in our mission for a more sustainable world.

The Recycla® range carries a clear message: every contribution, no matter how small it may seem, represents a concrete step towards a greener future.
Every product bearing the Recycla® logo is a tangible symbol of our commitment to a more sustainable future.
Every kilogram of polyurethane produced contributes to achieving this goal.

To confirm our ongoing and concrete commitment, in 2025 we obtained the SYNESGY sustainability certificate with a B rating.
