Polysytrene densification is the solution and there are various applications.

Recently I got wind of a seafood processing company that receives frozen fish in polystyrene containers and after processing, ships out fish in other polystyrene containers.

The densifier they bought handles 4,000 pounds of polystyrene weekly, compacting them into 40 pound ingots which are sold to a container company.

Polystyrene densification is a project where the feasibility is driven by sheer volume. I’m glad to see more and more companies tackling it as a part of their sustainability goals!
