Styrofoam packaging and our lives are closely related, we can see the bubble wrap everywhere, but the waste Styrofoam packaging will have a bad impact on our living environment, so Styrofoam recycling is necessary and important.

The recycling and utilization of discarded Styrofoam products has become a worldwide problem. Traditional methods of landfill and burning are gradually being replaced by reusing, compressing or decomposing processes. Recycling waste Styrofoam products can not only protect the environment, save energy, but also have good an economic benefits.

Waste plastic foam products are squeezed out after the crushing, melting and extruding by a Styrofoam densifier. GREENMAX Styrofoam densifier can reduce the volume of waste foam to 1/50 or less. Then the melted Styrofoam blocks will be transported to the recycling center.

Some manufacturers purchase these Styrofoam blocks to make new products. Mixed with special cement to make building panels, such as insulation boards, etc. The average effect of this building material is 60%. The noise suppression rate at certain frequencies can reach more than 90%. Now this material is used as a soundproof wall and ceiling for power plants.

Waste Styrofoam is crushed, perlite and cement are added, and the mortar is stirred evenly. The top cover is preserved for 3 days, then natural drying, and then using cement mortar to smooth light concrete heat preservation. Low cost of production materials, heat insulation, warm in winter and cool in summer. Waste polystyrene foam washing, drying. Dissolve with cheap phenol or residual chlorine solution, add toughening agent and film antiwear agent to blend to viscose, blow or coating glass cloth surface, drying to waterproof roof or pipe waterproof film.

Proper use and recycling of Styrofoam packaging will bring convenience to our lives, so we must pay attention to the issue of recycling.
