If you have tonnes of used EPS each week and are compacting it before sending it to landfill — you could be recycling it instead.
There are several recyclers who take compacted EPS; The EPS compactor can help to process EPS into a clean pellet that can be used in applications like coat hangers, picture frames and replacement hardwood. Others, most notably people will take used fish boxes, export the compacted EPS to the place where it is recycled and used in new products like disposable cameras and video cases.
If you have tonnes of un-compacted, used EPS each week, some recyclers will install a compacter on your site and then take the densified EPS material for recycling. In all cases, the recycler will collect the compacted material if you have a large enough amount to make the journey economically viable and in some cases they will pay for the compacted EPS.
