GREENMAX EPS recycling system will clamp down the radical plastic ban

The Break Free From Plastic Pollution Act advanced by the Washington Democrats has received public opposition in Oklahoma, and people think that such a ban is very radical and irrational. The Break Free From Plastic Pollution Act would eliminate the production and consumption of most single-use plastics. To-go bags, plasticware, EPS cups and packages, straws, and so forth would be greatly restricted or outright banned under the proposal. The practice is a shock to both consumers and U.S. recycling technology.

 

Take EPS, a common plastic in our lives, for example. Some people always think that banning the use of EPS will completely solve pollution, but banning EPS may lead people to blindly choose some materials that are more harmful to the environment. The reliability of new materials is also uncertain, especially if the cold chain transportation industry rashly chooses new materials, it will face immeasurable losses if it fails. Even some relevant departments suggest that EPS food packaging be outsourced to other countries for production. However, some countries have far fewer safety standards for food packaging than the United States, and consumers' food safety cannot be guaranteed.

 

The legislation would also hamper innovative American companies, including the Chevron Phillips Chemical Research and Technology Center located in Bartlesville. The institute is dedicated to transforming plastic waste (including EPS) into valuable liquids, which can become new petrochemicals. Although mechanical recycling is widely praised, chemical recycling can extract higher-purity recycled materials. Although this method is not suitable for a wide range of applications, it has value for some industries that require high purity of reuse materials, and we should allow the birth of new technologies. According to analyses from the American Chemistry Council, if expanded, advanced recycling could generate up to $10 billion in US economic output. 

Therefore, it is impossible to ban plastic products such as EPS. To prevent EPS pollution, we can follow the EPS recycling system of GREENMAX. GREENMAX is an EPS recycling expert integrating recycling and reuse. EPS densifier is the ace recycling equipment in all recycling machines. 98% of EPS is air, but it is indeed 100% recyclable, so volume reduction has become an indispensable step in the recycling process. Because the EPS waste generated by related industries is often characterized by a large quantity, a large area, and needs to be recycled in time, there are strict requirements for the compression ratio. EPS densifier fully meets these requirements. GREENMAX EPS densifier can compress EPS into 1/90 of the original volume, with an EPS densifier, you can dispose of waste at any time and flexibly recycle EPS.

 

Another reason why it is not necessary to disable EPS is that waste EPS can be completely reused, forming a closed loop of resources and the economy. GREENMAX original EPS recycling system reuses these EPS after recycling to make new plastic products, such as photo frames, mirror frames, picture frames, etc.

GREENMAX is not only an EPS densifier provider, but also a manufacturer with multiple factories, but if you just want to recycle EPS, not to build an EPS recycling system like GREENMAX, then you don't have to worry about where the waste EPS goes, GREENMAX stably acquires compressed EPS all year round, and helps you with worry-free recycling throughout the process!
