Expanded Polypropylene (EPP) is a highly versatile closed-cell bead foam that provides a unique range of properties, including outstanding energy absorption, multiple impact resistance, thermal insulation, buoyancy, water and chemical resistance, exceptionally high strength to weight ratio and 100% recyclability. EPP is offered in the grades required for a variety of applications according on the technical specifications. Where energy management is crucial, such as in car bumpers and interior passenger safety components, high density grades are used. Medium densities are employed in furniture and other consumer goods, whereas low density grades are used in packing. Although it is frequently found in white for packaging products, EPP is frequently colored black for automotive uses. Some providers offer EPP in vivid colors ideal for presentation-grade textured surfaces.
EPP foam looks bulky, and many people are helpless with this kind of waste, so they mistakenly believe that this kind of waste cannot be recycled. In fact, this is a wrong and outdated concept. The current recycling technology can easily recycle EPP foam, just as easy as recycling EPS foam. In the whole recycling process, only one suitable EPP recycling machine is needed to start the recycling project. GREENMAX EPP compactor can be used.
EPP compactor Zeus series can compress harder EPP foam, which is more compact than Apolo series compactor. Because there is a hot-melt ring at the outlet of the EPP compactor Zeus series, it can make the compressed EPP blocs more compact. The EPP compactor recycles EPP through two main steps of crushing and screw extrusion, and it is a piece of equipment with relatively low energy consumption among all EPP recycling machines. The compression ratio of GREENMAX EPP compactor can reach 50:1.
As an EPP recycling machine using cold pressing technology, it can recycle hard EPP foam, which is rare. Therefore, this equipment is very popular. EPP compactor realizes three main aspects of recycling, environmental protection and energy saving at the same time. It is indeed Good choice!
