Why is Polystyrene Recycling Essential for Businesses?

Polystyrene is a common packaging material in our daily life, mainly used to protect goods from damage during transportation. You can see polystyrene in take-out food trays, egg cartons, fish boxes, and so on. Unfortunately, polystyrene not only brings great convenience to our life but also poses challenges to the environment, while polystyrene recycling has been a hot topic around the world in recent years.

As bans on single-use plastic bags and straws gain momentum across the globe, attention is now focused on another mighty environmental opponent: Polystyrene. Polystyrene poses serious health concerns for aquatic life and the general health of the planet, which is no surprise, given that it’s made of thousands of pieces of non-biodegradable plastic. It can neither decay and transform nor degrade and disappear on its own, resulting in serious environmental pollution and wasting valuable non-renewable resources.
