C.T.C. servicios ambientales is a Spanish waste management company that collects, transports, and manages dangerous and non-dangerous waste to recycle and evaluate it in the safest and optimal way. The waste they received includes waste Styrofoam materials. In the past, C.T.C. had encountered a bad situation that they had no ideas to dispose of the waste Styrofoam materials. Fortunately, GREENMAX from INTCO recycling successfully supplied its professional solutions to C.T.C. servicios ambientales, which also brought them another valuable business.
In the past, C.T.C. often met customers which needed to dispose of Styrofoam materials like fish boxes or home appliance packaging materials which have large volumes. C.T.C. thought collecting Styrofoam is not really a workable business at first. Because they knew nothing about the method to dispose of these waste Styrofoam materials. Moreover, the disposal fee isn’t a small number.
However, many customers such as supermarkets had large quantities of Styrofoam packaging materials that needed to be disposed. As a waste management company, C.T.C. has the responsibility to help solve their customers’ problem. After consideration, they decided to collect the Styrofoam packaging materials from the supermarkets.
In the beginning, C.T.C. agreed to collect a small amount of Styrofoam materials. At the same time, it has been looking for ways to deal with Styrofoam materials until it heard the Styrofoam recycling method provided by GREENMAX. And they also knew that the recycled Styrofoam materials can be granulated to make other products. To help solve its problem, GREENMAX calculated the amount of Styrofoam materials to help choose the appropriate capacity of the machine. Finally, GREENMAX managed to supply the appropriate machine to C.T.C. to recycle the Styrofoam materials.
Nowadays they collect more and more Styrofoam materials and their recycled Styrofoam materials are sold to the local granulators. In August, C.T.C. purchased another Styrofoam compactor A-C300 which has a larger capacity. The Styrofoam compactor A-C300 has an extra function: automatic cutting. If the EPS block reaches a certain length, the system will automatically cut the block off, no manual operation required. In addition, C.T.C. also purchased additional accessories: a conveyor belt and a silo. The conveyor belt can control the feeding speed to get the perfect EPS blocks, and the most important thing is that the silo can help C.T.C. save much labor and cost.
All the machines of GREENMAX have Siemens control boxes which are very intelligent and efficient, the system is also able to control the screw cutting and pressing speed. The machine itself has a fusible function, that is, to prevent the compressing temperature from becoming too high to lead the surface of the EPS blocks to be melted. Moreover, GREENMAX compactors can support the long-term operation. C.T.C. operates Styrofoam compactor A-C300 for about 8 hours a day, and the machine has been running very well without any problems.
C.T.C. is very satisfied with GREENMAX, and now their EPS recycling business has grown. At present, EPS blocks as raw materials of PS pellets are in large demand in many countries, including INTCO. Many companies are willing to buy EPS blocks at high prices.
C.T.C. has totally entered into a new industry which was unknown to it before. The good news is that C.T.C. benefits much from the Styrofoam recycling industries. It will be a very economical industry for you to enter into.
