Discarded packaging[packaging?:DCP-H series packaging sample cutter plotter] material often winds up in landfills. It's reported approximately one-third of the material in an average dump is packaging material, which includes cardboard, plastic[plastic?:Plastic sample cutting machine] and expanded polystyrene[polystyrene?:cnc ps/polystyrene cutting machine] (or Styrofoam). Packaging material represents approximately 65 percent of household trash and about 10 percent of the purchase price of most products. The amount of packaging material is thrown away daily at 150,000 tons. This packaging material can be recycled, thus saving energy and protecting the environment.
To recycle packaging material, we need to separate the packaging materials by type first, creating piles for cardboard, plastic, foam, glass, etc. And then break down any boxes into flat cardboard pieces for easier piling. Don’t forget to remove all non-recyclable materials like glue, tape before sent to recycling center.
