Have you ever paid attention to the packaging of fruits when shopping at a fresh food supermarket? Many people think that these fruits are just simple paper shells. In fact, it is not that simple. If you carefully observe the inner packaging, you will find that many times, the fruit packaging boxes will use EPS, and sometimes in order to better protect the fruits. For quality, EPS packaging and EPE film will be used at the same time to help form better protection. Fresh fruits such as tomatoes and strawberries are susceptible to mechanical damage during transportation, resulting in a high loss rate. This problem can be solved by developing appropriate packaging design. At this time, the importance of EPS plastic packaging and EPE plastic packaging is well reflected.

Not only can EPS boxes prevent impacts, but they are also the preferred packaging for food. EPS foam packaging can maintain a constant temperature for a long time. Fruits and vegetables are packed in EPS boxes to preserve freshness and maintain good hygiene. Spain uses more plastic containers than any other country in the world for its own produce. Forty percent of all things packed in plastic that are manufactured in the country are pre-packaged food items, bottled drinks, and cleaning supplies. A considerable part of them are food packaging made of EPS and other types of materials. These EPS and EPE packaging can and must be recycled.

First, you should use EPS compactor to compress the EPS packaging box, which is very necessary. You can choose to use the EPS compactor Zeus series for compression, because this upgraded equipment can compress both EPS blocs and EPE blocs, and adds thermal melt exchange at the discharge port to achieve better compression effects. The compression ratio of EPS compactor can reach 50:1. If there is EPE film in the packaging, GREENMAX recommends using hot melt equipment for recycling, which has better results.
