This paper provides a bio-based polyurethane foam (PUR) solution, following cradle-to-factory approach. The design of rigid PURs, reinforced with sustainable fillers have gained remarkable attention in "green" construction sector. Their marked performances make them viable solution for synthetic counterparts' replacement. In this work, functionalized hemp fibers and silica powders were selected as reactive fillers, imparting multifunctional properties to the designed PURs. Hemp underwent...
