Polystyvert, a Montréal-based clean technology startup, has secured $3.5 million funds through its sustainable Development Technologies Canada (SDTC), the Canadian government announced On November 30. This is the second time that SDTC has invested in Polystyvert.



There is something that we have to admit: polystyrene is used worldwide for its many advantages: insulation, lightweight, water resistance, shock absorption, and moisture resistance. But wherever it is used, the environmental challenges remain the same. Now we human beings are facing the dilemma that we should find the best solution to settle the conflict of using polystyrene products, or the only way for polystyrene waste is banning.



In Canada, according to the data, people recycle just 9% of their plastics with the rest dumped in landfills and incinerators or tossed away as litter. In addition, according to the Canadian Plastics Industry Association, only 35% of communities accept polystyrene waste for recycling. The shocking numbers have made the Canadian government determined to support Polystyvert recycling. The government hopes the grant will allow Polystyvert to help Canadian companies develop and deploy clean technology solutions and address pressing environmental challenges.



Polystyvert has been developing a breakthrough polystyrene recycling technology. The company aims to be able to dissolve all types of polystyrene through this special technology. And now, Polystyvert will use the funds to expand its patented recycling technology. It is conceivable that many of the problems faced by polystyrene recycling will be solved once such technology is mature.



Now we need to give Polystyvert time to study and experiment with their technique. Then, how to deal with the huge polystyrene waste now in Canada, and around the world? At this point, INTCO Recycling is worth mentioning. Why INTCO is a polystyrene recycling expert? Long-term research and the professional technical support can assure INTCO Recycling provides a total solution for various polystyrene recycling problems. Besides, GREENMAX polystyrene recycling machines help too many companies from all over the world implement their waste polystyrene recycling. Op to now, polystyrene recycling is absolutely worth investing in, and INTCO Recycling is also worth cooperating with.
