Manufacturing industry is those factory who produce the package foam products.

Since the 20th century, plastic packaging has covered all aspects of human life. Humans are inseparable from the service of plastic products. The manufacturers of these plastic products have been conscientiously fulfilling the mission of manufacturing.

Polystyrene producers and polyethylene producers have always had a unique position in the foam sector. Because they also undertake the mission of recycling.

Polystyrene manufacturers usually buy polystyrene raw materials from large chemical companies, suchas Revago,BASF, they produce polystyrene into various shapes of products through a foaming process, and then put them on the market.

On the one hand, they face the recycling issues of some defective products in their own production process., on the other hand, after their products are put on the market and used, they also have the responsibility to fulfill the responsibility of recycling, they usually encounter:
1.their own scraps cannot be completely reused, and must be recycled on site.
2. Some dust-like wastes generated in the production process need to be recycled safely
3. Downstream customers repurchase their products and have recycling needs after use
4. The government requires them to demonstrate that their products are recyclable

For polystyrene producers, GREENMAX hot melt machine is a new technical solution specially tailored for polystyrene producers, we can simultaneously process the waste generated in all aspects of the producers.

Polyethylene manufacturers usually buy raw materials from major PE new material factories, like Sabic.  and then make various PE packaging materials through extrusion foaming process. They also face a series of recycling difficulties:
1. PE packaging materials have a 20%-30% scrap ration during the cutting process. These scraps have a very large volume due to foaming, and there is foaming gas in them, which is difficult to recycle.
2. The leftover material produced by downstream customers has extremely high transportation costs due to volume problems.
3. The cost of recycling landfill is increasing year by year
4. The government requires the use of 100% recyclable raw materials.

GREENMAX has been committed to helping manufacturers with different needs to customize various polyethylene recycling solutions and help them become the pioneers of green products.

Extruded polystyrene manufacturer produce the insulation materials for construction industry，we called them XPS insulation materials. XPS was produced by virgin GPPS pellets with extrusion Process. During production, the scraps XPS was immediately recycle back to production normally. But when it goes to construction site, after shape moulding, the scraps will be not easy collected immediately and recycled back. XPS is 100% recyclable materials and could reuse back for XPS production. Regarding Extruded polystyrene recycling, GREENMAX recycling technology will help to reduce volume of XPS and recycle them back to polymer for reuse again.

Expandable Polypropylene foam is a kind of foam products which main use for Auto industry. We also call it EPP foam. It was produced by EPP beads expanding process with foam gas inside. Normally we can see it exsist in our Auto cars as EPP bumpers, EPP transferring box,  The recycling technology for EPP scraps is quite simiar with EPS, GREENMAX compacting technology will help to carry out EPP recycling by reducing the volume of EPP scraps and then make them into pellets. And this recycled EPP pellets can be widely use back for EPP shapes production again, also can widely use for many kind of injection PP products.
