1. Remoulding into foam – post consumer packaging can be processed, as a partial or direct substitute for virgin polymer, into raw material for the production of loose-fill packing or even for new EPS mouldings.
2. Re-use in non-foam applications – examples include plastic stationery products, video and CD cases, coat hangers, plant pots, etc
3. Re-use in extruded applications – one example, hardwood replacement, can be used to make products such as garden furniture, window and picture frames
4. Re-use in lightweight concrete and building products – grounded EPS is mixed with cement to make a lightweight concrete material for insulating swimming pools, flat roofs, floors, etc.
