Foam Densifier Meet Market Demand for Recycled Polystyrene Materials
As a packaging and insulation component solution provider, BEWI has increased its polystyrene recycling capacity by 40% by opening a new recycling center in Norrköping, Sweden, which promotes the development of a circular economy for foam.
The recycling center is equipped with the latest polystyrene recycling extrusion technology, which enables the collection and use of recycled foam in BEWI products and meets customer and market demand for polystyrene recycled materials. In addition to providing customers with recycled polystyrene raw materials, the recycling center also promotes the use of recycled foam in BEWI's downstream business units, thereby reducing its carbon footprint. The United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) considers polystyrene packaging to be recyclable on a large scale and in practice, and polystyrene recycling can extract recyclable materials from waste foam and use them to make new products.
Additionally, the market demand for recycled materials is also growing. Some countries and regions have passed legislation or regulation to encourage and require the addition of 15%-30% recycled materials in the production of plastic products. Consumers are also more inclined to environmentally friendly products containing recycled raw materials, which has promoted the development of polystyrene recycling. In order to meet customer demand for more polystyrene recycling solutions and international requirements for the quality of recycled materials, INTCO Recycling independently developed the GREENMAX foam densifier. This polystyrene melting machine is a device specially used for reducing the volume of foam. It can efficiently compact the foam to one-ninetieth of its original volume, improving the efficiency of subsequent transportation and polystyrene recycling.
GREENMAX foam densifier is fully automated and easy to operate, saving customers labor costs. The high compression ratio and simple operation of the machine are more popular with customers in the market than cold-press compactor and hydraulic compactor. Even a female temporary worker with no mechanical knowledge can complete the entire polystyrene recycling process by operating this polystyrene melting machine. The machine can be operated by turning on the start/pause button of the foam densifier, so the recycling staff only need to feed and arrange compact foam ingots. The workflow of GREENMAX foam densifier is set before the machine leaves the factory. INTCO Recycling will first deeply understand the actual needs of customers for polystyrene recycling, including indicators such as foam density, humidity, output, and recycling rate, and then customize the recycling plan and build and code the foam densifier. If the polystyrene melting machine needs to be adjusted in detail, INTCO Recycling's engineers can provide online video calls to help customers understand the machine and make adjustments. Therefore, customers don't have to worry about the operation of the machine at all. In addition, if you have any questions about the maintenance and repair of foam densifier, INTCO Recycling will provide the timely assistance.
INTCO Recycling provides tailor-made waste management solutions for our foam densifier customers, transforming used polystyrene into high-quality recycled raw materials, effectively promoting polystyrene recycling and establishing a closed-loop system.
