EPS compactors help companies in Australia respond to the government's call to recycle EPS

Due to the spread of Covid-19, many residents choose to minimize going out, so takeout has also become the choice of many people. During the two years of the outbreak, Waste Management Association chief executive Peter Anderson said some waste companies were reporting total kerbside recycling contamination levels above 35 %, many of which are EPS food packaging. To make matters worse, these non-degradable EPS food packages are sent to landfills in places like Melbourne. "More and more people are opting for takeaway food. The EPS packaging that needs to be landfilled is multiplying," the staff said.

From the perspective of environmental protection, we all know that landfill non-degradable garbage will pollute the soil and cause harm to the environment, and even EPS will harm the entire ecosystem as a carrier of unknown bacteria. In addition to environmental reasons, landfilling can greatly reduce economic benefits. Landfill fees have tripled since 2020, from $66 to $126 per ton. Many related industries that have responded to the government's call to do the EPS recycling are complaining. Mr. Anderson said the cost of the increased landfill would ultimately be passed on to the consumer through hikes in council rates. It seems that EPS landfill is not a good way.

Aiming at the problems of environmental pollution and low economic benefits caused by EPS landfills, GREENMAX has proposed a complete EPS solution. Different from traditional landfills, GREENMAX has helped related companies in many countries to carry out EPS recycling based on the concept of recycling and economic closed-loop.

GREENMAX has designed EPS compactors for better EPS recycling. Because EPS is large, it is very inconvenient to transport and also takes up a lot of storage space. The irregular shape of EPS food packaging makes the on-site environment look very uncomfortable. And it requires high transportation costs, so compressing EPS is a crucial step in the process of recycling EPS. EPS compactors can compress loose EPS to one-fiftieth of its original volume. Of course, EPS compactors are not only for recycling EPS food packaging but can also handle packaging made of EPS, XPS, EPP, and other materials.

With EPS compactors we no longer have to pay high landfill costs. Some people will question the value of purchasing machines, and EPS recycling also requires labor costs. For this reason, GREENMAX has long thought of a method to help you achieve a closed-loop economy. While solving the landfill problem, GREENMAX repurchases compressed EPS to make environmentally friendly photo frames. GREENMAX's waste quotation is very impressive, so it is a good choice to cooperate with GREENMAX for EPS recycling! GREENMAX achieves sustainable development of the environment, resources, and economy at the same time.
