Styrofoam Recycling: Combine Respect for the Environment with Business

Here is a recent news: Electrical manufacturer Electrolux has set a deadline for its small appliances to use Styrofoam. That date will be March 2023, when the group will launch a new packaging material for all its products, which for small appliances will mean the elimination of Styrofoam, which is difficult to work with. However, a sustainable materials innovation expert said: "Packaging large appliances using only paper materials requires a lot of cardboard, and we found that the carbon footprint and amount of waste generated can be higher than EPS." Moreover, carboard alone is not enough to protect large appliances, especially under certain environmental conditions, such as high humidity.



There is no packaging material that is more cost-effective than Styrofoam. The manufacturer faces a dilemma that many other manufacturers face: Styrofoam is hard to handle, but hard to replace. Styrofoam recycling, however, was by far the most suitable solution, a combination of respect for the environment and commerce.



What is the recycling process for Styrofoam? All kinds of Styrofoam packaging waste, Styrofoam cups, Styrofoam boards, etc., can be regenerated through recycling. This isn't about cleaning Styrofoam waste and using it again, it's about turning it into a new, attractive object using the magic of recycling. The Styrofoam recycling process requires a piece of recycling equipment to "transform waste into treasure". GREENMAX Styrofoam compactor is a Styrofoam recycling machine that uses a fully physical recycling method. The machine is not uncommon in the market, with many machine brands selling the device. INTCO Recycling has been deeply engaged in the Styrofoam recycling field for more than ten years and has a keen insight into the foam recycling market and unique insights and experience in the design and manufacture of foam compacting machines. So GREENMAX is certainly a trusted brand.



As more manufacturers began to take the step of Styrofoam recycling, the benefits of Styrofoam recycling became more widely known. Styrofoam isn't exactly the antithesis of the environment. Sure, Styrofoam waste can cause landfill buildup and serious plastic pollution, but recycling can change that. Styrofoam recycling is commercially viable, generating revenue every step of the way, from collection to processing and remanufacturing.
