The EPS recycling line is growing, and GREENMAX Recycling, an industry leader, has been number one in market share for many years with its GREENMAX EPS compactors.

But even in this case, controversial laws have recently been enacted to ban the use of EPS foam containers in restaurants, schools and other food service establishments, with the goal of protecting the environment and encouraging people to use alternatives. There are two sides to the story, and while EPS is difficult to degrade, foam is durable and cost-effective compared to alternatives that cost twice to three times as much and generally do not offer the same performance.

Once the law is enacted, people in the restaurant industry will struggle with the increased costs. Since a complete ban on EPS foam would not satisfy most people, the government could choose a compromise between prohibition and abuse by encouraging people in the restaurant industry to recycle EPS foam. the EPS compactor is specifically designed by GREENMAX Recycling to recycle EPS foam.

EPS foam containers used in the restaurant industry are known to have food residue on them. Recycling them is very cumbersome, which is a major reason why the government has chosen to ban rather than recycle EPS foam containers. the EPS compactor's SWD (shredding-cleaning-drying) system is designed for dirty styrofoam/EPS foam recycling, and it compresses EPS foam containers at a 50:1 compression ratio.

The use of the EPS compactor is certainly a win-win for both the government and the local restaurant industry. On the one hand, EPS foam, a cheap and convenient material, can continue to be used in restaurants. On the other hand, when discarded EPS containers can be properly recycled, the government does not have to worry about causing huge pollution to the environment.

Although GREENMAX's EPS recycling machine has achieved impressive results in North America and has been at the forefront of the market. But GREENMAX Recycling has never stopped innovating itself. GREENMAX is committed to achieving an economic and environmental balance through the recycling and utilization of EPS foam, which satisfies the vast majority of people.
