Earth Day is going to come. It’s time for us to preserve and protect our living environment and climate. According to a slogan, we need to act boldly, innovate broadly, and implement equitably. So lately, many recycling activities take place in the United States. For example, last Saturday McHenry County organized one of the scheduled recycling events. And as a kind of recyclable material, EPS foam is one of the key contents of this recycling activity.



The recycling event was organized by recycling companies, Paper Tiger Document Solutions, and the Environmental Defenders of McHenry County, and was primarily open to McHenry County residents, according to the county news report. This is not the first time that McHenry County has held a similar recycling event, so residents have been very active in participating in the event. In fact, EPS foam recycling is no longer a strange thing in North America. The 2019 EPS Recycling Report shows that over 136 million pounds of EPS foam were recycled. In many American recycling centers, EPS foam now is accepted by them. An EPS foam compactor is the cord part of the recycling process.



Since EPS foam is extremely lightweight (98% air), it can be economically shipped to a regional location. But the premise of all this is that the volume of EPS foam can be processed - compressed. Because EPS foam is directly transported to recyclers or stored, it takes up a lot of space. The excessive volume makes the initial investment cost of recycling too high, which is not what recyclers and environmentalists want to see. So, an EPS foam compactor is important for people to deal with waste material.



So how to run an EPS Foam compactor to ensure that EPS foam waste can be well treated? Take GREENMAX EPS foam compactor for example. When EPS foam waste is collected through the recycling center or various recycling activities, it will be put into the machine. Sharp blades can cut EPS foam into small pieces and then press them into EPS foam blocks through cold pressing technology. This process can reduce the volume and improve the recycling efficiency. Due to its mature technology and simple operation, GREENMAX EPS foam compactor is highly praised by many customers, especially some from the United States. So if anyone is interested in EPS foam recycling, INTCO Recycling can provide the most satisfactory machine for you.
