Styrofoam Packaging Is Accepted Again by the All Recycling Centers of the Regional District of East Kootenay

Due to the destructive flooding, almost all the Styrofoam recycling businesses of the recycling centers were influenced severely across the province. After the supply sources of some recycling factories were affected, the output was also greatly reduced. However, there are several important festivals during this period, people's gift packaging and express packaging are hoarded, and they need to be dealt with urgently. Fortunately, now these recycling centers can accept Styrofoam waste again. 



According to the REDK Environmental Service Manager, after the restart of Styrofoam recycling, warehouses in various regions have been full. It seems that people have accumulated a lot of Styrofoam waste in the past two months of stopping recycling. After knowing how much positive impact Styrofoam will bring to people's living environment, residents no longer randomly discard Styrofoam packaging as they did in the past. Because whether it is burning or landfilling Styrofoam, it will cause various air pollution and land pollution, and it will also occupy a large amount of landfill space. Now recycling centers in Invermere, Cranbrook, Kimberley, Fernie, Sparwood, and Elkford have resumed Styrofoam recycling. In fact, in the Kootenay area, Styrofoam recycling is already very popular. But in Canada, and even in the world, there are still many places where Styrofoam recycling is not well publicized.



We need to understand that Styrofoam is certainly a very good packaging material, but once Styrofoam is used and not properly processed, it will bring many negative effects. Moreover, in the era of over-industrialization, our resources are not inexhaustible. The raw material of Styrofoam is petroleum, and the behavior of "discarding after use" is a great waste of resources. But the recycled Styrofoam can be processed into parts for outdoor sports products, some interior decoration and building materials. This is enough to become a reason to practice Styrofoam recycling.



In the field of Styrofoam recycling, many companies have taken the lead in making bold attempts and have achieved remarkable results. For example, INTCO Recycling independently designed and developed GREENMAX Styrofoam recycling machines and sold them all over the world. INTCO Recycling has helped many companies, such as logistics companies, fisheries companies, and supermarkets to recycle Styrofoam, and reached a mutually satisfactory cooperation.
