December 9, 2020 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm MST
A solution to impact waste diversion goals. Foam Cycle is a system that can process the bulky hard-to- recycle-material we know as ‘foam.’
Foam Cycle (patent-pending) offers cities, towns and municipalities an efficient way to immediately begin collecting, densifying and re-purposing foam packaging waste at a municipal drop-off site.
Learn about:
- Metrics: Get data on waste diversion and landfill airspace savings; Formulaic trucking savings with a
Styrofoam recycling program - Technology: Heat densification vs. cold press.
- Attain a size ratio of 90:1 (33% greater than cold press)
- Solutions: Foam retail and shipping packaging – Medical insulation – Food containers
- ROI: Revenue potential and end markets for the pure polystyrene plastic feedstock created (foam ingot)
