AB - There has been a recent surge of interest in biobased foams for applications ranging from building sustainability (insulation) to biomedicine, pharmaceutics, and electronics (scaffolds), with nanocellulose-based foams being particularly promising due to their porous and low-density structure. This study compares the production energy, structure, and properties of foams made from TEMPO-oxidized lignocellulose nanofibers (F<sub>TOLCNF</sub>) derived from unbleached wood pulp, and TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibers (F<sub>TOLCNF</sub>) from bleached cellulose pulp. Additionally, the incorporation of tannic acid (TA) as a biobased additive is explored for its ability to enhance the mechanical strength of F<sub>TOLCNF</sub>, contributing to improved performance. This builds upon the inherent advantages of F<sub>TOLCNF</sub>, which not only demonstrate superior structural integrity and load-bearing capacity (specific Young’s modulus of 37.4 J g<sup>–1</sup>, compared to 16.4 J g<sup>–1</sup> for TOLCNF) but also exhibit a higher yield during production due to the minimal processing required for unbleached pulp. Furthermore, F<sub>TOLCNF</sub> production requires about 18
