IK, a German plastics trading group, recently participated in an investigation into the packaging image of EPS, also known as Styrofoam or airpop. The results showed that this packaging material was very pleasing.



A similar survey was launched in 2013, since which the image of packaging material made by Styrofoam had improved by 11%. Currently in Germany, according to the survey, 54% people have a good impression of Styrofoam packaging. They focus it on the function of packaging of home appliances and consumptive electronics. Among the important groups such as political policy makers, the supporting rate of Styrofoam packaging also rose by 20%.



Those who are involved in the survey express that the biggest advantage of Styrofoam packaging is its ability to protect fragile products efficiently and the Styrofoam itself is very light. However, as to the Styrofoam recycling rate and the protection of related resources, they expressed deep doubts.
No matter how difficult the Styrofoam disposal is, there can always exist appropriate solutions.



Fortunately, professional methods can be provided by GREENMAX. Due to the unique characteristics of being bulky and light of the Styrofoam, GREENMAX has specially designed recycling machines, such as APOLO series screw compactors and MARS series functioning as thermal densifiers.
Both of these two kinds of machines can smash and then compress or heat the bulky Styrofoam into blocks or ingots in order to make these compressed or melted materials easy to store and transport, which, as a result, can perfectly finish the most critical step of Styrofoam recycling.



Styrofoam disposal can be well done by appropriate recycling, which, GREENMAX can be the best ally. As the last thing is an armchair strategist, you need to fumble ceaselessly in practice
