The application of Foam has become more and more extensive, no matter in terms of types or application fields, this growth trend cannot be underestimated. The common types of foam are EPS foam, XPS foam, EPE foam, EPP foam, PUR foam and PIR foam. There are countless industries that use foam or foam-related industries, including foam production industry, foam cutting industry, foam packaging for furniture and home appliances, video packaging, special foam containers for agriculture and medical industries, etc.

They all have one thing in common: all types of foam plastic are non-degradable, and if they are not properly recycled, they will definitely cause serious pollution. Foam usually appears in an expanded state, and it is quite difficult to recycle. If the wrong method is used for recycling, it will cause some unnecessary waste of economy and time. We should protect the environment and recycle foam efficiently at the same time.

Foam Hydraulic Compactor Recycles Various Foam

Foam hydraulic compactor is a new foam recycling machine. This equipment not only fills the gap in the previous foam recycling field, but also has a higher compression ratio than previous foam screw compactors using screw extrusion technology, a breakthrough in the field of cold pressing technology. GREENMAX foam hydraulic compactor can mainly compress EPS foam, EPS foam dust, EPP foam, PUR foam and PIR foam, covering the types of foam that people thought could not be recycled at all. The compression ratio of GREENMAX foam hydraulic compactor can reach 70:1, which is not at all It needs heating and is also an energy-saving device.

Recycling Steps of GREENMAX Foam Hydraulic Compactor:
1. Put the foam to be processed into the crushing device and then into the silo
2. Large pieces of foam are broken into small pieces
3. Hydraulic technology compacts the broken foam
4. Compressed foam output - compact foam blocs

Convenience Brought by GREENMAX Foam Hydraulic Compactor:

1.Waste foam will be compacted into foam blocs by hydraulic technology, with a compression ratio of 70:1, saving storage space, transportation costs and labor management costs
2. Foam recycled materials can be reused and mixed with new materials, which is economical
3. Avoid foam waste from polluting the environment, realize ESG, and highly practice ESG concepts

Advantages of Choosing GREENMAX Foam Hydraulic Compactor

1.Can recycle hard-to-recycle PUR foam, PIR foam and even EPS foam dust
2. Receive the customer's private customization and make a plan according to the actual situation
3.With complete after-sales service, a professional engineer team provides online and offline after-sales service
4.Free use training and technology sharing

Successful Case:

JB Hi-Fi Limited is Australia's largest retailer of consumer electronics and home appliances. The company has 316 stores across Australia and New Zealand. In order to provide convenience to customers, JB HI-FI provides door-to-door delivery service. After installation, the resulting EPS foam and carton packaging need to be brought back to the designated place by JB Hi-Fi for recycling. Therefore, JB HI-FI has to set up recycling centers in each state distribution center.

In April, JB HI-FI purchased a Foam hydraulic compactor, which has a relatively new technology in the field of compression, combining the advantages of traditional foam screw compactor and foam densifier. Waste EPS foam is crushed and transported to the storage bin of GREENMAX Heracles series Foam hydraulic compactor through a screw, and compacted into a dense and uniform block with a volume compression ratio of 70:1, which greatly reduces the volume of waste polystyrene foam, thereby Save storage and transportation costs.

This recycling equipment is equipped with an automatic cutting device, which does not need to manually cut these compressed EPS blocs. After automatic cutting, it is packed with a forklift to achieve a high degree of automation. At the same time, it is equipped with a vacuum system to suck away a small amount of foam dust scattered on the factory floor to keep the environment clean and tidy.
