A Recycling Guide for EPS Foam Factory

For EPS foam factories, nowadays, EPS foam recycling may be an issue they need to pay close attention to. This is not only due to the trend of environmental protection, but also the improvement of corporate responsibility. Then, it is worth mentioning that EPS foam densifier may become the best assistant for the factory to implement the recycling scheme for a long time in the future. This article will specifically introduce how EPS foam factories should recycle.




What Requires to be Recycled in EPS Foam Factories?
Obviously, what needs to recycle in EPS foam factories is EPS foam. Maybe many people will have questions: since EPS foam factories produce EPS foam products, why is it that it comes to recycling before it is sold and used? In reality, while EPS foam products are produced here, a large amount of EPS foam waste will also be generated. These wastes mainly come from two aspects.
① Some defective products
The first is that some defective products have been produced, which cannot be sold in the market and cannot be processed again. Therefore, if they are not recycled, they can only be discarded.

② EPS foam debris and dust
The second is EPS foam debris and dust produced in the production process. As is known to us, EPS foam is loose expanded polystyrene, which is very easy to produce fine debris in the processing process.



To sum up, EPS foam factories may produce much more EPS foam waste than you think, and according to its production capacity, maybe the EPS foam recycling machine like EPS foam densifier is essential.


Why is Recycling Necessary for EPS Foam Factories?
Some people may hold the view that a certain cost is obviously required to invest in the EPS foam densifier. Why doesn't the owner of the factory choose to throw the EPS foam waste into landfills or just let it go? it doesn't seem to have a particularly negative impact. But on the contrary, the negative and even harmful impacts of EPS foam waste are very serious:
① Environmental Costs
The landfill is not a complete and effective recycling method, and the discarded EPS foam waste cannot enter the biogeochemical cycle through biological decomposition and photodegradation. Due to the low density of EPS foam, it floats on the water surface or floats with the wind, resulting in subjective landscape damage.



According to the survey of the California Coastal Commission, EPS foam has been the main marine drift. For marine organisms that eat this kind of plastic by mistake, it will cause damage to their digestive system.

② Health Threat
In EPS foam factories, there are a large number of EPS foam particles and dust. Once inhaled into the human body, it may cause respiratory tract infection or cancer.

In addition, many people do not realize the fact that EPS foam will eventually harm human health while polluting the ocean. Because EPS foam will be eaten by marine organisms in the ocean. After fish are caught and eaten by humans, EPS foam particles enter the human body and pose a threat to health.

③ Fire Hazard
EPS foam is a flammable substance. If EPS foam debris and dust everywhere are left unchecked, it will pose a serious fire threat. Especially in autumn and winter, it is easier to cause a fire in a dry climate. Once it happens, the consequences are unimaginable. Therefore, avoiding fire is also one of the important reasons for recycling.




Why Can EPS Foam Densifier be the Best Assistant for Recycling
The above content mentioned the necessity of EPS foam factories to recycle EPS foam waste, and now we will talk about why we choose EPS foam densifier instead of other recycling schemes? What are the unique advantages of this recycling machine? The following reasons lie in three aspects.

① Efficient Hot Melting Process
Technology is the primary productivity, and this conclusion is no exception for EPS foam recycling. EPS foam densifier is completely different from other recycling schemes. It is based on advanced science and technology to heat and melt EPS foam waste and compress it into 1 / 90 of the original volume of hot melting ingots. This technology can deal with EPS foam debris and dust at the same time. It not only achieves recycling but also saves storage space.

② Health Recycling Without Secondary Pollution
Many people will worry about whether the heating during the operation of EPS foam densifier will produce toxic gas. The answer is No. This is a recycling machine that can be used safely. During use, it will not cause any secondary pollution to the environment. It is a 100% recovery method, and the EPS foot ingots obtained does not have any by-products

③ Additional Profit from Selling EPS Foam Ingots
As mentioned above, the recycling of the EPS foam densifier will not produce any useless by-products. In fact, the recovered hot melting ingots are also important granulation raw materials in the market. If EPS foam factories choose to use EPS foam densifier for recycling, despite the investment, they can soon rely on the sale of ingots to make profits in the subsequent recycling process.




Sustainable development is very important for every industry, as is the EPS foam industry. Only by giving full play to our sense of environmental responsibility and selecting the EPS foam densifier for recycling, regeneration, and utilization, can the whole industry usher in a better future.
