The UK is not far behind in the recycling of EPS, especially the large, white packaging produced by large supermarkets such as furniture and home appliances during the delivery of goods. If it is not recycled effectively, it will enter the landfill. It will sleep under the soil for 500 years, which will have a certain impact on the ecological environment. The people of Caerphilly County Borough are aware that because the municipality does not take polystyrene for recycling, it must be disposed of in landfills and have had warning stickers placed on their brown bins. One business, based in Penallta Industrial Estate, intends to change that and is already one of the top recyclers of white trash packaging in the UK. 

GM Polystyrene was founded by Graham Middleton in Caerphilly back in 1989. Mr. Middleton, the company's managing director, is committed to preventing EPS from being dumped into landfills to avoid this old way of polluting the environment. Mr Middleton said his company would reduce up to 50 tonnes of EPS from local landfill within a year. It is also worth noting that some equipment is used in the company's recycling process to help compress EPS. At its recycling sites, the company compacts the collected polystyrene with an EPS compactor, turning it into a dense recycled material. The waste is then used to make a variety of products, such as floor insulation and clothes hangers.

During EPS recycling we will gradually discover the necessity of using recycling machines such as EPS compactor. INTCO Recycling is mainly engaged in the business of recycling EPS. The reason why the machinery brand GREENMAX was founded is to better assist the process of EPS recycling. INTCO GREENMAX EPS compactor has helped many British customers achieve recycling. After the EPS compactor is crushed and squeezed, the air in the waste is squeezed out, and the volume of EPS waste becomes one-fifth of its original size, whether for transportation or waste management both bring great convenience.

Most of the waste EPS processed by the company is exported to various European countries, especially Belgium, Germany and Spain. Mr Middleton said there was no sale of the material in the UK. The compression effect of the EPS compactor is very good, and the EPS blocs produced are of high quality and high density, making them ideal recyclable materials. INTCO will help with recycling and provide waste repurchase services. Likewise, you don’t need to worry about the final destination of the waste. INTCO Recycling has a factory specializing in granulating and manufacturing finished frames, completely turning waste into treasure.
