Polystyrene
We collect and recycle polystyrene waste, transforming it into reusable materials to reduce landfill impact and support sustainability.
Service Details
We provide the collection of Polystyrene in bulk bags which is dropped off locally for processing and recycling. Polystyrene, a type of plastic commonly used in packaging, disposable containers, and insulation materials, into reusable forms. Since polystyrene is lightweight and bulky, it occupies significant landfill space and takes a long time to decompose. Recycling polystyrene can be challenging due to its low density and contamination with food or other substances.
Recycled polystyrene can be used for products like insulation, picture frames, and construction materials, reducing waste and the demand for virgin plastic.
The recycling process generally includes:
- Collection and sorting: Waste polystyrene is gathered and separated by type
- Shredding and compacting: It is broken down into smaller pieces and compressed
- Melting or dissolution: The material is heated or dissolved to remove air pockets
- Remolding or extrusion: The melted polystyrene is then reshaped into pellets or new products
