Why Recycle Metal Cans

1. Shortage of resources. As a common packaging for drinks and food, metal cans have a huge consumption and need to continuously supply metal resources, but the resources are limited.
2. Shortage of storage space. Metal cans, such as aluminum cans, are light in weight due to their tank structure, but still need large space.
3. High cost. The uncontrolled utilization of metal cans not only consumes natural resources but also requires high costs for the extraction of primary metals.



Advantages of Recycling with GREENMAX Dewater
1. Metal cans are successfully recovered to avoid resource waste and save energy consumption.
2. The metal tank is compressed to 1 / 6 of the original, saving storage space.
3. The residue and liquid in the metal tank are collected to avoid environmental pollution.
