This has presented many EPS produc-ers, waste collectors and recyclers with the challenge of handling the EPS waste without spending too much time and money on trans-porting “air”. SolutionA Mil-tek EPS 1800 is installed at the unloading site so that the machine can be fed directly - manually or by conveyer belt. Despite variations in material a volume re-duction of at least 20 to 1 can be achieved. The compressed EPS blocks can easily be stacked on pallets and sent for recycling.Bene? ts• Less warehouse space required • Reducing the cost of further transportation• The compressed material represents a certain recycling valueProblemMost computers and hardware arrive wrapped in EPS. Many computer vendors are therefore stuck with huge amounts of EPS material. As part of their customer service, many companies also take back the EPS and cardboard waste af-ter the installation. Handling this waste is often a big problem for these companies SolutionA Mil-tek EPS 900 compactor is installed close to the unwrapping/unloading area allowing for the EPS material to be put di-rectly into the compactor when unpacking or upon returning with the empty packaging from the customers.

SolutionIn order to reduce the volume of EPS waste several companies have chosen the Mil-tek EPS 1800 compactor. Despite the fact that ? sh boxes are wet and slimy, they can be put di-rectly into the compactor, where a reduction from 40 to 1 is achieved.Bene? ts• Large savings on container rental and emptying• Possibility of recycling the compressed material, which represents a certain valueProblemWhite goods retailers sell refrigerators, dish washers, stoves, coffee machines etc. In or-der to protect the goods everything arrives wrapped in EPS. Obviously these stores have huge amounts of EPS material.SolutionThe EPS 900 is installed close to the unwrap-ping area and the EPS material is put directly into the compactor. This way the material must only be moved once The EPS 900 can be placed in a small area as it takes up very little space. Bene? ts• Space requirements and cost for container rental are minimised• More effective waste handling procedure • Possibility of recycling the compressed materialBene? ts• Savings on container rental and emptying• More effective waste handling procedure• Possibility of recycling the compressed material 401Technical Datasave money on waste...by compacting your EPSExpandable PolystyreneFromtoModel 900 1800Capacity 15 kg. per hour 80 kg. per hourVolume reduction Min. 40:1 measured on fruit or ? sh boxes Min. 40:1 measured on fruit or ? sh boxesDegree of compression Min. 20:1 measured on weight Min. 20:1 measured on weightBlock weight 250 - 300 gram/litre(250 - 300 kg per m3) or 800 fruit boxes250 - 300 gram/litre(250 - 300 kg per m3) or 800 fruit boxesBlock dimensions 137 mm x 137 mm 270 mm x 270 mmMaterial Only EPS Expandable PolystyreneOnly EPS Expandable PolystyreneDensity 10-30 kg. pr. m3(10-30 gram/litre)10-30 kg. pr. m3(10-30 gram/litre)Door opening H: 510 mmW: 860 mmD: 460 mmH: 510 mmW: 860 mmD: 960 mmDimensionsModel 900:Height: 2180 mmWidth: 1310 mmDepth: 785 mmModel 1800:Height: 2390 mmWidth: 1710 mmDepth: 1170 mmMotorAmp.Power1,8 kw5,1 A3 phase - 380 V2 x 3 kw14 A3 phase - 380 VWeight 330 kg 800 kgNoise level 57-60 dB 57-60 dBApproval CE CE 2180 mm785 mm1310 mm2390 mm1170 mm1710 mmver1/2005/GB-1429Contact:Facts on EPS:• 30 % of the total production world wide is used for packaging and other moulded products• EPS products contain approximately 98% air and 2% polystyrene• EPS products typically way about 20 kilo pr. m³
