Waste disposal is harmful to human health, and if left untreated, it can lead to serious and irreversible health conditions, especially for children and the next generation. And it is an important source of air and water pollution.
Currently, Zambia’s landfills are located near unplanned residential areas (shantytowns) where most of the poor live. And that’s why we want to do a program called ZERO PLASTIC COMPAIGN to make sure that the environment is sustainable.
We have received a message from a Zambian lately, who said their country has recently embarked on a clean Zambia campaign and wants to recycle EPS to avoid pollution. “ I noticed whilst in Germany that there is a lot of recycling. I even noticed some recycling machines in super markets. I’m personally interested in seeing that use of plastic foam reduces as recycling increases.” said Mubanga.
EPS recycling in Zambia has faced some challenges. Most people lack an understanding of the importance of green living; Insufficient investment in funds, equipment and technologies; There is no clear pricing and recycling policy to gain the community’s trust.
Since the region is gradually beginning to realize the importance of plastic recycling, recycling work must be carried out. Some enterprises have already introduced advanced machine for recyclable plastic types recycling like EPS.
GREENMAX, which is well known in the EPS recycling industry, can achieve a foam compression ratio of 50:1 with the professional EPS compactor. The compressed polystyrene is as neat as bricks and easy to storage and transport. Most of all, it can help you save a lot of money during the recycling process.
We hope that the EPS recycling work in Zambia can be carried out rapidly and GREENMAX will provide a total solution of EPS recycling for this area.
