Polyurethane foam is found in upholstered furniture like couches, in mattresses, pillows and beneath carpets. Foam has been used for decades despite the hazards associated with the material called “solid gasoline” by many fire marshals. When ignited, foam burns quickly at temperatures above 1400 degrees. As polyurethane burns, toxic hydrogen cyanide gases are emitted. Polyurethane disasters include the 1970 fire in a French nightclub decorated with foam. That fire killed 146 people. In the United States, more than 800 people die annually in fires caused when the first item ignited was upholstered furniture, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission. Those tragedies continue because there is no national regulation for flame retardant foam in furniture. Safety advocates support adoption of California's 1970 standard.
