GREENMAX compactors are highly effective for businesses or facilities that handle large amounts of Styrofoam waste, such as appliance retailers, electronics manufacturers, or logistics companies. By using these machines, these entities can contribute significantly to environmental sustainability efforts by reducing the amount of Styrofoam waste sent to landfills.
Using the GREENMAX Styrofoam compactor for recycling waste Styrofoam is a straightforward process that involves several steps:
At first, you need to collect and feed the Styrofoam waste into the machine’s hopper. This step may involve breaking down larger pieces of Styrofoam into smaller, manageable sizes.
Once in the hopper, the machine crushes the Styrofoam into smaller pieces. This is an important step as it prepares the material for the subsequent compaction process.
The crushed Styrofoam is then compacted. The compaction process is facilitated by pressing and hydraulic technology, which compresses the foam significantly. GREENMAX machines can reduce the volume of Styrofoam by a ratio of up to 50:1.
The compacted material is then extruded from the machine in the form of dense blocks or ingots. This form is more convenient for storage and transportation.
The dense foam blocks can then be collected for recycling. They are easier to store and transport, making them more practical for recycling facilities to handle.
These compacted blocks of Styrofoam can be sold or sent to recycling facilities, where they can be processed and used to create new products, thus completing the recycling loop.
