Recently, David Eslava, chairman of recycled EPS technical, said that in order to ensure the recyclability of EPS packaging, in addition to increasing its collection volume, it is also essential to improve its scrap management and open up a new market for recyclable materials. The protocol outlines a comprehensive approach that allows innovative packaging and its impact on recycled EPS to be tested in the laboratory.



The goal of the agreement is to ensure the recyclability of EPS packaging, maintain the protection performance of packaged goods, ensure the normal operation of the EPS recycling process and encourage innovation. In fact, although EPS was rejected by street recycling services in many places, it even led to the issuance of prohibitions on EPS in many regions. However, this conservative and controversial material can in fact be quickly recycled by physical method. The recycling method of the EPS compactor has become very popular in Europe.



As we all know, Europe's emission policy has always been very strict. Nowadays, many EPS recovery equipment on the market use hot-melt densification technology, which is very difficult to put into use under the influence of such policies. Therefore, the EPS compactor, as an EPS recovery equipment using cold pressing technology, will not produce any harmful gas in the recovery process, resulting in secondary pollution.

In addition, the EPS compactor perfectly adapts to the recyclability of EPS packaging. Advanced cold pressing technology can compress it to 2% of its original volume. Under such efficient treatment, a truck of EPS may become a compact EPS block. For each EPS recycler, this not only saves a lot of storage space but also avoids paying a lot of waste management fees.



Most importantly, under the influence of the circular economy, recyclers can sell EPS blocks to plastic particle manufacturers and make profits through this EPS cycle mode. This can promote the effective recycling of EPS. When EPS recyclability testing service is started, it means that in fact, more people expect EPS to be recycled. Therefore, we must recycle EPS together with everyone's efforts.
