With the global eco-friendly economy more and more recognized by various countries, sustainable development has become the current trend. Environmental protection is more and more valued by residents. Recently, Redmond WA neighbors have a chance to unload Styrofoam for recycling during a free event at Albertson’s on Saturday.
The Information of this event
Time：Between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m., on April 17.
Address：The store at 3925 236th Avenue Northeast
Event Notes：The store will accept only clean, dry, and empty items, including Styrofoam blocks and take-out containers, with any tape or labels, removed. Residents can also check their items for a “#6” or EPS symbol on the packaging, which means it is recyclable. As we all know, Styrofoam is also called foam#6. If the logo does not exist on the package, it may be that the product is not made of Styrofoam, such as peanut box. The event welcomes the active participation and donation of local residents.
Styrofoam densifier play an essential role in the event
Styrofoam, as one of the important factors causing white pollution, is collected by these recycling activities. However, the final destination of the collected Styrofoam is not the landfill, but the hopper of the Styrofoam densifier. Styrofoam densifier, using the hot-melt technology, takes the thorough treatment of Styrofoam as the design goal. Styrofoam can be compressed into compact ingots and finally used for granulation.
Styrofoam recycling machines will play an important role in the recycling industry in the United States in the future. The concept of 100% recycling is the urgent need of the government facing white pollution. It is believed that with the further development of advanced technology, this Styrofoam recycling equipment will continue to upgrade and break through the existing bottleneck of Styrofoam recycling.
