In 2018, Australia set ambitious national packaging targets for 2025, including 100% of packaging will be reusable, recyclable or compostable by 2025, and 70% of plastic packaging will be recycled or composted by 2025, which apply to all packaging manufactured, used and sold in Australia. The goals create new sustainable pathways for the way we manage packaging in Australia.

As you can see above, recycling plastics is a matter of urgency. Polystyrene as a type of plastic is a material that has been widely used for many years. It is often used in packaging, construction materials, containers, etc. This material is favored because of its high temperature resistance, shock resistance and other protective advantages. To recycle polystyrene, it is recommended to use the professional GREENMAX Polystyrene recycling machine.

An Australian recycler purchased a GREENMAX Polystyrene recycling machine to compact foam polystyrene. They use the GREEMAX Polystyrene compactor APOLO series to compact their discarded fruit and vegetable boxes. GREENMAX helps them to process large volumes of discarded fruit and vegetable boxes and reduce the volume of polystyrene to 1 in 50. by recycling fruit and vegetable boxes in this way, it not only facilitates the reduction of polystyrene waste in Australia, but also It can save a lot of money in storage and shipping costs.

The loose polystyrene processed by recycling machine will become the raw material for making plastic particles – polystyrene blocks. Finally, it has become the picture frame, skirting line, and other products, which are sold at home and abroad.

From this it seems that GREENMAX Polystyrene recycling machine plays its part in achieving Australia's national packaging goals for 2025.
