When it comes to the current situation of foam waste, we usually think of the logistics industry and fishery for the first time. In fact, foam is also very common in the construction industry. Now, the foam scraps and waste generated by the construction industry are a huge number, accounting for 19% of the construction waste. As a result, some manufacturers and companies in the construction industry have had to take steps to reduce foam waste. HIRSCH Isolation was well-received last year for providing polystyrene recycling service, and this year, they decided to recycle foam scraps from the construction industry.



In the construction industry, HIRSCH Isolation has many creative and environmentally friendly designs. Last year, the company launched the ECA series in particular. The boards of this series are all composed of polystyrene, which reduces the impact of carbon by 60% while ensuring the quality of insulation, which is convenient for subsequent recycling. And this year, HIRSCH didn't stop there. HIRSCH's recycling service has expanded to allow the recycling of construction waste, such as large quantities of foam boards waste and foam scraps. The ultimate goal of HIRSCH is to limit carbon dioxide emissions. Also, they will work with the RNRP (National Network of Polystyrene Recyclers) to expand the foam waste collection area.



In the past, the public had a great misunderstanding of foam recycling and believed that foam recycling was difficult to achieve. With the increasing use of foam, the environmental problems caused by foam waste cannot be ignored. People are caught in a dilemma because the foam is so light and easy to scatter around, but it's bulky. There are already very good machines that can solve these problems. For example, a construction company that wants to carry out foam waste, as long as it makes an appointment with HIRSCH for recycling services, the foam waste and scraps on-site will be collected into specific bags and transported away for subsequent recycling steps. GREENMAX foam recycling machines compress bulky foam for transport and reprocessing. Besides foam recycling machines, INTCO Recycling also provides complete foam recycling solutions. From sourcing waste foam to supplying foam recycling machines, and buying back compressed foam to make decorative items such as frames, INTCO Recycling has extensive experience.



The benefits that foam recycling brings to us are obvious. First at the construction site, once foam recycling has been implemented, the site will be clean and orderly. Foam waste and scraps are given a second life. Reuse and recycling services are part of a circular, sustainable and responsible economic approach and an environmental imperative for the future.
