Polystyrene foam(EPS) is light in weight, and its flexibility, durability, safety, and comfort have expanded the application range of the product. With its multiple application, the need for polystyrene foam is increasing. Therefore, how to deal with polystyrene foam wastes became a problem. Do not worry. Polystyrene densifier can solve this problem.
Turn waste into treasure. Waste EPS foams can be made into new products through EPS densifiers. We call these new products as end applications that are used diversely, including furniture, packaging, construction, consumer goods, automotive interiors, etc., which promotes its strong prospects and provides huge power and benefits for the foam recycling industry.
For example, sales of furniture and interior decoration exceeded US$10 billion in 2018. According to the report, more and more restaurants are investing in cushioning and comfort upgrades, which boosted revenue in the foam market. The technological advancement of foam makes its application more diversified.
Moreover, consumers spend more on bedding and other products made from EPS foam. This phenomenon has surged, coupled with the growing demand for memory foam mattresses, and the soft foam industry. Not only that but EPS insulation material is also considered to be the most cost-effective insulation material on the market now.
Because the structure of EPS foam is lightweight and easy to construct, it will not attract insects and will not rot like traditional wood building materials. Many construction companies are using polystyrene building molds instead of wood. The use of EPS materials for architectural modeling not only provides complete customization but also has a longer service life than traditional wood-based materials.
Although EPS has so many uses, if it is not handled properly, it will cause a lot of pollution. EPS foam is very valuable in terms of recycling. And EPS recycling is not a difficult task. This process is so effective that some regions have launched EPS recycling programs to increase EPS recycling rates by using EPS foam densifiers.
The high-efficiency function of the GREENMAX EPS foam densifier reduces the volume of foam by a ratio of 90:1, making a great contribution to EPS recovery. It can also handle various foam materials, including EPS, EPE, EPP, and food trays. Styrofoam densifier has made a great contribution to EPS recycling.
