With the rapid development of the industry, while helping to raise people’s living standards, has also led to an increasing number of environmental problems, prompting more and more governments to start banning the use of plastic bags, polystyrene foam packaging material and other packaging products. So far, “plastic restrictions” have been introduced or proposed in many parts of mainland Asia, including India, Malaysia and Philippines.
Recently, California has issued a polystyrene packaging ban range about Hermosa Beach, the execution time is September 11 this year. It is expected that there will be more than 30 seaside companies to be affected, including restaurants, grocery stores and so on.
As we all know, polystyrene foam is a light plastic material, which is usually used in transportation services, disposable containers, as well as disposable foam lunch boxes and other foaming products. Polystyrene is considered by many environmental groups as a major cause of pollution by beaches and seas.
However, according to years of practical experience and research results show that polystyrene foam container is not the culprit of “white pollution”, which itself is non-toxic harmless, health and safety, can be recycled completely.
It is certain to be a challenge to solve the problem of waste polystyrene pollution, but we must fundamentally solve the problem instead of banning use of it.
GREENMAX from INTCO recycling is a polystyrene recycling specialist, it can provide polystyrene recycling machine to help you recycle waste polystyrene foam. And INTCO is also willing to purchase back all the compressed blocks with good price to make their own frame products.
Such compactor can reduce the volume of waste foam up to 50:1. So the scattered and big size material can be compressed into dense block. Then the lightweight and scattered polystyrene foam will be easily transported.
As you know, recycling may be the most welcomed and environmental-friendly way of polystyrene recycling.
