Single-use plastic bowls, cups for cold beverages and hot foods, plates, cutlery, stirrers, straws, EPS (polystyrene) food containers, thick plastic bags, and helium balloon releases will all be banned in Western Australia as of January 1, 2022. A six-month transition period will allow businesses to use up supplies and adapt to the changes for all items. But will this make all EPS in Australia disappear?
We can see that only a small number of EPS applications are mentioned here. In fact, there are still many cases where we have no way to avoid the use of EPS, such as EPS packaging for pharmaceuticals, fresh goods, and fragile merchandise. Therefore, we should pay more attention to EPS recycling.
While white garbage EPS is not as difficult to solve as we think. Although this material is not degradable, it is indeed 100% recyclable. It is a valuable resource that can be reused. Therefore, as long as EPS recycling is done well, we do not need to reject the use of EPS at all. Intco Recycling GREENMAX has more than ten years of experience in the EPS recycling industry. We are committed to EPS recycling, helping the earth to clean up white waste and recycling at the same time to maximize the use of resources. The Australian government and relevant departments can cooperate with GREENMAX for EPS recycling
First of all, the most important step in the whole EPS recycling process is to use the EPS compactor. The EPS compactor is an EPS recycling machine designed and manufactured by GREENMAX. With the EPS compactor, we can compress the EPS to one-fifth of the original volume. The purpose is to reduce high transportation costs and facilitate subsequent recycling. In addition to providing EPS compactors, GREENMAX will buy back the compressed EPS and use it to re-manufacture environmentally friendly photo frames. This recycling model can effectively help the Australian government to efficiently complete EPS recycling.
Don’t wait any longer. GREENMAX can help Australia have fun in using and recycling EPS at the same time. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Intco Recycling GREENMAX!
