Foam Collection in Medfield, with the Help of the Foam Compactor

On Saturday, April 1, the TSARC held a foam collection in Medfield, Massachusetts. The Transfer Station and Recycling Committee (TSARC) in Medfield provides guidance, assistance, and suggestions about waste reduction, aiming to promote local recycling initiatives. The TSARC holds Medfield Green Month events several times a year, providing collections to reuse, reduce, and recycle. The foam recycling event is meaningful, and the foam collected will soon be recycled by a foam compactor.



As one of the most pollutive things in the world, foam is harmful to nature to a great extent. It takes at least 200 years for the foam to degrade. Many countries and regions are making efforts to address this serious problem. At this event, residents can bring appropriate types of foam to the collection, including packing foam, foam egg cartons, foam food trays and cups, etc. Once the foam is collected, it is sorted based on its type and color. This whole recycling process cannot be finished without the help of a machine—the foam compactor.



The foam compactor offers a way to recycle foam usefully and effectively for recyclers. Most of the foam is big in size and occupies a large space. By compacting and densifying the foam, the compactor can make it easier to store and transport. The compactor produces continuous logs at a ratio of 50:1. Taking reasonable foam recycling measures can not only helps residents clean up excess waste in their homes, but also helps companies and social organizations reduce disposal costs. In addition, foam recycling has developed into a mature and complete industrial chain, which is much more environmental-friendly than throwing foam waste into landfills.
