EPS Recycling
Equipment
Bright Technologies
Bright Technologies, specialty equipment div. of Sebright Products, Inc. has developed a line of EPS Densifiers for volumes from 100 lbs. per hour to 1200 lbs. per hour, producing truckloads of 40,000 lbs. for optimum efficiency. Our equipment is designed, manufactured, installed, and serviced factory direct right here in the United States. The original EPS Densifier, placed in 1995, is still in use today. Complete design services specific to your site when needed and ancillary systems from pre-breakers to bag houses with full integration with your existing systems are all available. No heat is used to reduce pentane gas dangers, just 190,000 lbs. of pressure applied until all air has been removed and there is no remaining memory. This creates a solid block of PS with densities of 17 to 22 lbs. per cubic foot and it doesn’t matter whether you start with EPS dust or small chunks of EPS. To increase recycling of EPS in the United States, there are numerous programs utilized to place equipment wherever volume permits and the foam can be sold to manufacturers using the densified EPS Foam in products like composite or plastic lumber used for longer lasting, weather resistant outdoor decks or fencing, drain field aggregate substitute or drainage tile blankets used for increased drainage under roads and highways, and it is even used for hard jewel cases for CDs and DVDs. This extremely resilient building and packing material does not need to end up in your local landfill after its original use. Bright Technologies EPS Densification equipment is the most reliable long term investment in EPS recycling you can make. For a quick view of the equipment in use, see www.densifiervideo.com and link to our website for contact info!
The new STYROCYCLER™ is the first densifier of its class to be offered in 110v single phase household current. It is ideal for electronic, appliance, home goods, furniture, and any retail/wholesale application that has EPS "Styrofoam" waste taking up valuable dumpster volume space.
One of the Fine Grind Units Foam Equipment &
Consulting offer the modular HERGER� line of grinding and compacting
equipment which can be mixed or matched to build custom systems. See
below for details. HIRSCH USA The Hirsch Screw Mix system
KBM
manufactures recycling systems that enable the EPS and EPP industry
reuse as much as possible in their production. KBM offers a wide
range of recycling systems that can manage 140 � 1400 cubic feet per
hour of recycled EPS. They also offer a unique granulation process
which brings the material down to the individual bead with a minimum
of dust. This optimizes the reuse of EPS products and with
STYROMIX/STYROMETER it is possible to accurately control the
mixing/metering to reuse even more. KURTZ NEPCO

 RUNI
A/S Industriparken 8 DK-6900 Skjern Denmark P) +45 – 9737 1799  F) +45 – 9737 3800 E-mail) runi@runi.dk Web) www.runi.dk The RUNI screw compactor densifies EPS at a ratio of 50:1 reaching a density of 18 lbs per ft3. The square blocks of the SK370 can be stacked in a 40´container reaching maximum capacity of 44000 lbs per container. The RUNI screw compactors start at the SK120 with a capacity of 35 lbs/hour for the retailer, SK240 with capacity of 150 lbs/hr, and the largest compactor being SK370 with a capacity of 400 lbs per hour.  A
silo system with up to 3 compactors and a separate pre-crusher
enable a capacity of 2000 lbs per hour using the silo as a buffer.
Pre-crushers can be placed at various locations in the facility as
the EPS is blown to the silo.The RUNI screw compactors are suitable for the entire range of EPS from clean virgin EPS to fish boxes containing moisture and even EPS that has soaked in water. The possibility to use the heavy-duty pre-crusher directly on the machine as well as on the side makes it possible to crush thick and dense EPS and EPP. Since 1997 RUNI has sold 225 of the SK370 and 80 of the SK240 for EPS alone. The SK120 was launched in 2005 for EPS and RUNI has sold more than 120 units worldwide.     The
RUNIs can also compact a wide range of materials and drain liquid in
the process.The RUNI saves time and space without using a large amount of energy. Contact one of our distributors or RUNI if in need of further information.

ALESSIO S.R.L.
Alessio's equipment range includes different lines of
products to process expanded polystyrene and polypropylene and meets
all plant demands: pre-expansion, thermoforming, coupling with
similar materials and not. All these steps are carried out at
different automation levels according to the transformer specific
demands
Erlenbach
Recycling Plants start with a pre-crusher that will break down EPS
or EPP to approximately 30 x 30 mm, which can then be introduced
manually or by conveyor belt system. The recycled material is fed by
a blower to a de-dusting cyclone plant that separates the fine dust
particles (typically less than 1%) from the recyclable material. The
clean recycled material is then fed by a blower to silo bags for
storage. The equipment is available in different sizes and a noise
dampening system is also offered. Erlenbach presses typically see an
average of 20% recycled material introduced into packaging. Block
molds are capable of 100% recycled material.
Chino, CA, 91710
RecycleTech Corp. offers
equipment from mobile, 200 lbs-per-hour units to larger, 1000
lbs-per-hour custom designed units. Our equipment can handle dry
& wet materials, and will compact EPS scrap into ingots with the
rate of up to 50:1 for low cost storage and transportation. The
output ingots can be stored anywhere without the worry of materials
re-expanding or absorbing moisture.
