With worsening Covid-19 infection, Hong Kong now refuses imported vegetables and other food packed by Styrofoam boxes. This leads to so many Styrofoam boxes piling up across Hong Kong. However, there leaves little landfill space to dispose of Styrofoam waste. Aiming at this situation, a Styrofoam densifier is necessary for solving this accumulation of Styrofoam boxes.



Styrofoam is widely known as packaging and boxes to contain food or goods. It’s so light but can keep food fresh, prevent goods from breaking. So, Styrofoam is a popular material in the food delivery market and logistics markets. However, the current Styrofoam is not as embraced by everyone as it once was. The growing demand for takeaways and couriers has made Styrofoam boxes an elusive place for waste disposal plants. Because the amount of Styrofoam boxes are too large, the landfill cannot accommodate such a large number of Styrofoam boxes and burning would bring too much pollution. So, what to do with these Styrofoam boxes? This is not just a problem facing Hong Kong now, but a problem facing many cities around the world.



No worrying about it, a Styrofoam densifier can help Hong Kong and other places out of the dilemma. According to the research, from 2017 to 2022, the Styrofoam recycling rate keeps rising. Especially in Europe, some countries recycle over 50% of waste Styrofoam. No suspect, Styrofoam is 100% recyclable.  Styrofoam is made up of 98% air, this fact means Styrofoam can be compressed to reduce its volume. A Styrofoam densifier can turn the Styrofoam waste into a soft pliable material at a ratio of 90:1. The compressed Styrofoam, ingots, will be processed by the professional company into new plastic products.



It’s unsafe to pile up Styrofoam boxes on the streets. Because Styrofoam is inflammable and also easy to be blown away, pollutes the environment. If there is a Styrofoam densifier, the Hong Kong government can deal with these Styrofoam boxes at ease. And some recycling companies will buy ingots to process. Such as INTCO Recycling, a Styrofoam recycler, provides GREENMAX Styrofoam densifier, as well as the service of purchasing ingots back.
