Como configurar uma pequena planta de reciclagem de espuma?
Small foam recyclers are often unable to recycle plastic foam efficiently due to location, budget, or equipment constraints. This article provides sound advice for entrepreneurs looking to start or improve their foam recycling plants.
Plastic Foam Materials You Should Know
First, you need to understand the different foam raw materials and determine the type required for production in your plant.
- EPS: Light weight, heat insulation, good cushioning effect, widely used in packaging boxes, building insulation, etc.
- EPE: Soft, impact resistant, widely used in electronic products, fruit packaging film, etc.
- XPS: Rigid foam insulation, high density, widely used in construction industry.

Proceesing Guide for Small Foam Recycling Plant
Reducing Styrofoam Volumes
Plastic foam is known for its large volume and light weight, which means it takes up significant storage space. Consequently, small facilities with limited space can compress it to save room. EFFICIENT can provide the following two specialized EPS foam compression solutions:
EPS styrofoam compactor: Through the mechanical force of the hydraulic system, it compresses the loose foam into dense blocks with a volume reduction of 40 times, without consuming heat and with low energy consumption. The EPS compactor is easy to operate and suitable for processing dry foam, suitable for small foam recycling plants seeking energy saving and with limited budget.
Polystyrene Melter: Through the screw melting and extrusion, the foam will be converted into dense lumps, the compression effect is more significant, it can deal with a wide range of foam types, suitable for factories with a large amount of foam waste.

Shredding EPE EPS Foams
In the plastic foam recycling process, the Triturador EPS is used to shred bulky foams into uniform small pieces, which facilitates the subsequent granulation process and improves the efficiency of foam recycling.
Direct processing of loose EPS, EPE, EPP, etc.
Several popular models with capacities ranging from 250 to 500 kg/h.
For harder foam slabs or ingots, this 1.5t/h foam crusher can be used. We can also provide custom-designed crushers to meet the production needs of your foam recycling facility.
Plastic Foam Granulation
O EPS pelletizing system converts foam into high-quality recycled pellets by melting, extruding, cooling, and pelletizing. This allows it to be recycled in packaging, construction, and other industries.
