EMBALL’ISO USA Recycles XPS Waste by A GREENMAX Densifier

EMBALL’ISO USA is a manufacturer of cold-chain packaging that designs and manufactures high-performance temperature-controlled packaging for pharmaceutical products. These packagings are mainly used in pharmaceutical laboratories, clinical trial operators, logistics companies, and other fields. These cold-chain packaging can greatly maintain the safety and freshness of the supply of goods.

For the foam packaging industry, there will inevitably be a lot of XPS foam scraps and discarded foam packaging in the production process. If things go on like this, a large amount of discarded XPS foam will accumulate, which will pollute the production environment of the factory and cause potential safety hazards. Although EMBALL’ISO has bought a foam recycling machine, this old machine with a small capacity could not deal with a large amount of waste XPS foam. Also, its hopper is small, making it not easy to handle large-size XPS foam packaging. The company's employees had to cut large pieces of XPS foam into smaller pieces before putting them into the silo. Originally, the company purchased this machine for reducing labor input and automatically recycling XPS foam. But now it was self-defeating and increased the labor cost of operating the machine. In addition, the small-capacity machine could not process waste XPS foam in time, so the accumulated XPS foam could only be sent to the landfill. On the contrary, it has added to transportation costs and landfill costs.

After these shortcomings became too much to bear, EMBALL’ISO decided to change its foam recycling scheme. The GREENMAX from INTCO Recycling is the largest brand in the United States and is highly appreciated by many customers. EMBALL’ISO negotiated with the GREENMAX team regarding the current problems and requirements, hoping to find a suitable XPS recycling solution. As a foam recycling expert, the GREENMAX team has rich experience. According to the size and density of their XPS waste, INTCO designed a large-size hopper, a powerful double-knife crushing, and improved the power of the heating plate. These custom designs enable GREENMAX densifiers to handle their XPS foam waste perfectly.

It has been a year since the GREENMAX densifier was installed, and the previous problems have not resurfaced. The GREENMAX densifier M-C200 has been designed and modified to be highly productive. So EMBALL’ISO doesn’t need to landfill foam waste that cannot be disposed of in a timely manner. So it saved a lot of labor and landfill costs. Another advantage of choosing INTCO Recycling: in addition to producing GREENMAX densifiers, INTCO also offers a full range of foam recycling businesses. Therefore, compressed ingots can be directly sold to INTCO. And EMBALL’ISO avoids negotiating with other recyclers and obtains a stable income through selling ingots.
