GREENMAX EPS compactor with mature recycling technology will help LG in South Korea carry out recycling projects

The recycling of EPS is not limited to European and American countries, Asian countries have also actively participated in it. In recent years, South Korea, Japan, and China have seen a lot of information about EPS recycling, and ESG concepts have also been widely spread around the world. 19 December 2022, SEOUL, South Korea At CES 2023, LG Electronics (LG) will highlight its ongoing dedication to sustainability by displaying its ESG vision and most cutting-edge, significant advancements in a special exhibit titled the Better Life for All zone. Visitors can discover how components for new LG goods are made using materials recovered from discarded e-waste at the company's Chilseo Recycling Center (CRC). The company's energy-efficient plant, the LG Smart Park in Changwon, South Korea, and a novel EPS foam recycling technology that LG created to make product packaging more environmentally friendly.

Do you know the recycling technology of EPS foam? At present, the mechanical recycling method is mature, with a wide range of applications and low cost. The purity of the recycled EPS obtained by chemical recovery is higher, but it will change the chemical structure of PS molecules. This operation is not yet mature and is not suitable for wide application, and it needs a variety of additives and catalysts to assist. Considering the current actual situation, most of the relevant enterprises will still choose to use EPS recycling machine to recycle the EPS waste produced by the industry.

In fact, loose EPS can be directly manufactured into new plastic particles, so why do we use EPS recycling machine? The main reason is that in the whole process of EPS recycling and reuse, it is not a simple link, it needs a combination of multiple links to complete the recycling task. Most industries that produce EPS waste are not mainly engaged in EPS recycling, such as LG, an industry that mainly sells home appliances, and similar industries such as fishery and construction. Therefore, transportation is the main issue we consider. Using EPS recycling machine such as EPS compactor to compress waste is an essential link.

The volume of EPS compressed by EPS compactor is reduced to 1/50 of the original volume. People in the industry who know EPS know that only 2% of this material is PS, of which 98% is air. Once compressed by EPS compactor, the volume can be reduced. It is greatly reduced, thus saving transportation costs between various recycling links, which is reasonable for both EPS sellers and EPS buyers. GREENMAX EPS compactor has more than ten years of experience in recycling EPS. This EPS recycling machine sells To the world, including many Asian countries.
