How does the EPS washing line turn oil-stained food takeout containers into recyclable resources in Coloradans?
Due to a low recycling rate, a large amount of Coloradoans' abandoned waste—5.6 pounds on average per person per day—ends up in landfills. However, upcoming legislation will make it illegal to use most plastic grocery bags and foam takeaway containers, which block this stream. One encouraging development was the report released by environmental groups on Tuesday, which revealed that over the past six years, Coloradans have recycled or composted 16% of their waste, which has been diverted from landfills. This rate is among the lowest in the nation and is half of the national average.
Takeout food has become very common, especially in today's fast-paced life. Although foam is a recyclable material, especially our common EPS foam, EPE foam, and EPP foam, there is no doubt that they are all recyclable foam. However, foam food takeout containers have always been a controversial plastic waste, because although the material itself can be recycled, some people believe that it cannot be recycled because it is full of oil stains. GREENMAX EPS washing line has helped break this embarrassing situation.
So what is EPS washing line? It can be simply explained that the waste foam fragments are cleaned before compressing the foam, and then compressed again, thus achieving the purpose of recycling the oil-stained foam food takeout containers. Currently, GREENMAX washing line is mainly used for EPS foam and hard plastics, which is very suitable for recycling EPS foam food takeout containers! In order to recycle contaminated EPS foam waste, GREENMAX Recycling Washing Line Triton crushes the waste into small scraps, washes and dries them, and then compacts them into EPS blocks. INTCO Recycling GREENMAX offers an EPS compactor system and will buy back the contaminated EPS blocks. GREENMAX Recycling Washing Line Triton is now available in Italy and the United States.
This EPS washing line is also preparing to be sold to South America. This equipment was undergoing trial testing at the GREENMAX equipment factory some time ago. Based on the material information provided by the customer, we restored the clean waste foam food takeout containers to actual waste as much as possible. With an attitude of being responsible for the recycling effects of customers, we highly restore the actual situation and provide customers with on-site test machine videos. GREENMAX has always continued to innovate and achieve customer success.
