From an academic paper (Spanish) on "the use of rigid polyurethane foam waste with cement-based products to manufacture lightweight mortar with enhanced mechanical and thermal properties"
En resumen, los resultados del proyecto mostrarán no sólo la capacidad de obtener morteros medioambientalmente más sostenibles y con mayores propiedades de aislamiento térmico y de resistencia a compresión, sino que estima que serán materiales capaces de aligerar las estructuras de los edificios hasta en un 7% respecto del peso total del edificio.
La validación de la efectividad, *****retorno de la colocación***** y los costes de producción mejorarán la oportunidad de su comercialización en el mercado Europeo, comenzando con el sector de los materiales de construcción sostenibles. Este punto de comienzo permitirá extrapolar los resultados a diferentes aplicaciones como son materiales prefabricados o edificación energéticamente sostenible

profitability
I think it means something like 'return on use', as in 'return on investment'.
Because 'return on use' does not seem to exist, I think I would use 'profitability' i.e. the return on the use/'colocación' of the product.

Return on investment/Rate of return (ROI/ROR)
In this case, I believe "colocación" means investment.
