It is reported that Aberdeenshire Council has signed a one-year contract with Styropack for a pilot polystyrene recycling service, starting on February 1, 2020. The Council will offer polystyrene recycling trials at its three home recycling centers (HRCS).

These centers will only accept expanded polystyrene (EPS), which includes all polystyrene packaging materials such as molded packaging, filler blocks and boards, polystyrene boxes and packing balls, clean disposable meal boxes, etc.



Ros Baxter, the waste manager of Aberdeenshire Council, said: "polystyrene and any other hard plastic recycling pilots can provide us key data that will help shape the services we provide to the public, it is a very important point for us! We are always looking for opportunities to recycle new materials and divert waste from landfills. The pilot polystyrene recycling program is a positive step towards increasing the recycling rate in council."

In fact, if the results of the polystyrene recycling pilot project are positive, the trial could provide a long-term solution for local polystyrene waste recycling.
