Foam Cups are Recycled by Melting Machine in INTCO

In recently years, many fast food shops and coffee shops has offered paper-colored beverages, such as Starbucks, Kentucky Fried Chicken, McDonald's and so on, as well as most of the milk-tea shops along the streets also has provided paper drink cups. Recently, the media reported that China's annual consumption of disposable paper cups are more than 10 billion, which caused a bad impact on the environmental protection. And the recycling of disposable paper cups has become a big problem.

We know that although the outer paper cups are mainly made of white paperboard, the inside of the cup is a thin coating in the form of a layer of polyethylene plastic. The aim of it is to prevent the coffee cup soaked and lock the temperature of coffee. However, the thin layer of polyethylene plastic film is difficult to separate, so some recyclers do not willing to recycle it. Even if the paper cups can be broken and mixed with plastic to make low-grade cartons, which are used in shoe boxes, fruit boxes and other products. So, when these cups are discarded, they are ultimately be incinerated, which not only cause pollution, but also waste these resources. Therefore, some businesses are trying to reduce the use of disposable paper cups, or using other environmentally friendly paper cups to replace them.

Therefore, foam cups recycling has become an important way to solve the pollution it produces. About the problems of disposable cups recycling which has mentioned above, a melting machine, belonging to GREENMAX Recycling, can help you solve these problems. This machine can crush these cups first, and then after heating and extruding, these cups will become the densified ingots, with the volume reduction ratio up to 90:1. Because of it, the melted cups are easy to transport and will have little pollution on the environment. Then, we can reuse the resources to make other products. It provides great convenience to the recyclers.
