Styrofoam Packaging Recycling Ensure Foam is Recyclable Material with Irreplaceable Advantages

The City of Calgary, Canada, will host a six-month Styrofoam packaging recycling pilot project starting on May 13. The recycling areas of the city's three landfills will be able to collect waste foam packaging materials.

Through this Styrofoam packaging recycling pilot scheme, foam packaging can be diverted from landfill and reused. Once the waste foam materials are thrown into landfill, a local company, Styro-Go Canada, hauls it away and processes it. The company will melt the Styrofoam and pour it into molds to produce small foam ingots, which will be sold to recyclers and Styrofoam manufacturers. Styrofoam Manufacturers will eventually convert the dense foam into new recycled products, such as bicycle helmets, child car seat padding and picture frames.

INTCO Recycling is a Styrofoam recycling company and one of the largest end users of Styrofoam packaging materials. We turn waste foam into recycled products such as mirror frames and floors, forming a closed-loop Styrofoam packaging recycling system that has both environmental and economic value. Now more and more regions are aware of the importance of recycling. Many governments are unwilling to directly landfill foam packaging waste and require a certain proportion of recycled materials to be added to the production of plastic-related products. Styrofoam packaging recycling is now a trend and will definitely become more widespread in the future. Many companies are looking for recyclable materials to replace foam packaging, which will inevitably lead to rising costs and reduced profits. In fact, with Styrofoam packaging recycling, foam packaging is completely 100% recyclable material, and the entire recycling process is simple and straightforward.

Styrofoam packaging materials can be broken down into their original form through processes such as crushing, compaction, and granulation, and can be used in the production of various plastic products. However, every processing link can affect the quality of foam. Only high-purity foam can be used in the manufacturing process of new products. INTCO Recycling has extensive research and practical experience in the field of Styrofoam recycled materials and is able to provide integrated Styrofoam packaging recycling solutions. Its GREENAX foam crusher can achieve twice the result with half the effort in Styrofoam packaging recycling. The foam crusher is specially designed to break foam into uniform pieces, suitable for EPS, EPE, EPP, PSP, XPS, and PUR. The sharp screw cutter inside the GREENMAX foam crusher can break large pieces of Styrofoam packaging waste into small pieces. Meanwhile, the machine is equipped with a foam fragment filtering device to ensure that only 30mm-50mm fragments can fall into the bottom bin, and the remaining foam will pass through again, facilitating the subsequent processing. In addition, in order to ensure a one-stop service for Styrofoam packaging recycling, INTCO Recycling also provides foam buyback services. We purchase foam waste at a preferential price, so customers do not have to worry about the subsequent processing of foam.

As a Styrofoam recycling company, INTCO Recycling hopes to promote the development of Styrofoam packaging recycling business and provide the greatest sincerity to customers around the world.
