Canadian Empire Recycling handles large-scale recycling of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS), often known as Styrofoam, for commercial and industrial sectors. Ideal for businesses producing high volumes through packaging, manufacturing, construction, or office operations, this service ensures clean, efficient collection and proper processing of bulky foam waste.

1. Pickup & Initial Preparation
Clean Styrofoam is gathered from construction zones, warehouses, offices, and packaging centers. Any non-EPS items like tape, labels, or food residue are removed to ensure quality.

2. Size Reduction
The foam is fed into heavy-duty machinery that grinds it into small bits or granules, making it manageable for further processing.

3. Volume Reduction
Next, the loose foam is compacted using heat, pressure, or both. This process shrinks it by up to 98%, forming dense, stackable blocks known as ingots or bricks.

4. Shipping to Processing Plants
These condensed blocks are then delivered to plastic processing or manufacturing facilities, where they’re melted down and transformed into polystyrene pellets.

5. Creation of New Products
The pellets serve as raw material in producing a wide range of items, such as decorative molding, picture frames, insulated panels, park seating, and protective packaging.
