When the COVID-19 pandemic first hit New York City in the spring, thousands of people were dying from a deadly disease, and foam concerns fell to the wayside. Six months later, the pandemic has had an unexpected and lasting effect on the environment, through the proliferation of Styrofoam. So measures should be taken to achieve Styrofoam recycling.
According to Judith Enck, president of advocacy group Beyond Plastics, many of the plastic containers used in takeout are made of black plastic, which often is not recycled and instead ends up in out-of-state landfills or is burned in incinerators around the New York City metro area. But a lot of takeaway containers are made of Styrofoam that could be recycled, so it’s time to step up Styrofoam recycling efforts.
GREENMAX Styrofoam compactor offered by INTCO Recycling is one of the professional tools used in many relative fields such as fish industry or home appliance packaging industry. It could work at a ratio of 50:1, which means that the volume of the pressed materials will be 50 times smaller than the loose foams. And the recycled materials can be used to granulate and to make other products like frame products.
INTCO Recycling is a professional Styrofoam recycling company, so the quality of GREENMAX compactor could be promised. And if you don’t know where to sell the Styrofoam blocks, INTCO promises to purchase back your blocks as long as you purchase GREENMAX machine because INTCO has a whole recycling chain, which uses Styrofoam blocks to produce photo frames.
