Recently, the Australian government has taken steps to encourage recycling. There is currently more than $420 million available in waste and resource recovery grants around Australia. Of this grants, $7 million will be spent on new or expanded recycling facilities in remote areas of Australia.

In the case of polystyrene, a typical recyclable material, the polystyrene melting machine is an essential recycling facility. In contrast to polystyrene that is disposed of in traditional landfill incineration, the polystyrene melting machine treats material that will continue to participate in human life. The machine recycles polystyrene instead of becoming a pile of waste or a cause of environmental pollution.

The machine crushes and compresses the bulky polystyrene into compact blocks, which are precisely the raw material for PS particles, not useless scrap. And finally this blocks can be sold to major PS particle manufacturers. Thus, it is necessary to invest in polystyrene recycling machines.

But different recycling machines produce vastly different materials, and when it comes to polystyrene, one has to think of the polystyrene recycling specialist GREENMAX. Close to 1000 companies worldwide have found polystyrene recycling solutions through it.

One of the government clients GREENMAX worked with, East Gippsland Shire Council, started disposing of residents' unwanted polystyrene in 2018. at first, the council put the collected polystyrene in storage and sent it to landfill regularly. But gradually, the amount of waste polystyrene grew larger and larger, making storage space increasingly in short supply. In addition, the disposal of polystyrene in landfills is not in line with today's sustainable development, as it causes environmental pollution. After continuous market research and comparison, the council purchased the GREENMAX polystyrene melting machine.

The Council's use of the polystyrene melting machine has solved the problem of storage space, and to a certain extent, to achieve a circular economy. The Australian government's sponsorship of recycling shows the importance the country attaches to recycling, so we as citizens should also do our part to contribute to a greener planet.
