Lane County St. Vincent de Paul Society (SVdP) is the only recycler in the area that accepts expanded polystyrene labeled #6, helping nearby communities and businesses with Styrofoam recycling.

Anyone can drop off clean, white EPS foam at any St. Vinny donation center for free. In addition, SVdP offers a Styrofoam recycling solution to businesses that have a lot of waste foam. SVdP delivers the collected material to a Eugene warehouse, where a Styrofoam densifier is located. This foam recycling machine is designed to shred and compress lightweight foam chunks into a dense, easily transportable form. Finally, SVdP sells these foam ingots to companies to make new polystyrene-based products, which are sold at major retailers, such as architectural moldings and picture frames.

This type of foam recycling belongs to mechanical recycling, which is to compact and granulate foam into reusable materials such as foam ingots and PS particles through the foam recycling machine. These recycled materials can be used to remake other environmentally friendly plastic products, such as outdoor flooring, sound-absorbing panels, bicycle helmets, etc. This Styrofoam recycling perfectly realizes the reuse of waste resources, diverts foam from landfills, and completes the economic closed loop. As a global leader in high-tech manufacturing through recycled materials, INTCO Recycling is committed to completing one-stop Styrofoam recycling, and has independently developed the GREENMAX foam recycling machine, including Styrofoam densifier, pelletizer, etc. From the customized involvement of foam recycling solution, to the provision of professional recycling equipment, and sales solutions for recycled foam materials, INTCO Recycling helps you complete the simplest Styrofoam recycling.

For communities or companies that use a lot of Styrofoam, a professional GREENMAX Styrofoam densifier can help solve the problem of waste EPS stockpiling and achieve foam recycling. Styrofoam densifier is a foam recycling machine specially used to reduce the volume of foam, which is convenient for subsequent transportation and recycling. The community can install Styrofoam densifier to radiate Styrofoam recycling in surrounding households and solve the problem of foam recycling in households. And compacted foam ingots can be sold to other recyclers or INTCO Recycling to earn profits for maintaining the operation of the community. For companies such as home appliance distribution centers that need to use a lot of foam in their daily work, a Styrofoam densifier can not only solve the problem of foam accumulation and avoid safety risks, but also create an environmental protection project and obtain stable revenue. Some companies may have safety regulations in their warehouses. If there is too much waste foam stockpiling, it will be prohibited to stack it because of the risk of fire. GREENMAX Styrofoam densifier can compact the accumulated foam into 1/90 of its original volume, which can be placed on a pallet, and then sold to recyclers. In addition, for foam manufacturers, Styrofoam recycling can transform unqualified products or scraps into their original form and put them back into product production, thus saving and reusing raw materials.

If you don’t want to spend time and effort looking for downstream buyers of recycled materials, INTCO Recycling can provide buyback services at a preferential price, or provide you with other local sales solutions. We hope to promote the development of the global Styrofoam recycling business and protect the world environment.
