Our patent-pending Foam Cycle system allows for the outside storage, processing and recycling of Foam Packaging waste (also known as Expanded Polystyrene, EPS and Styrofoam). Our beautifully designed unit will enhance any county, municipal, college or university recycling drop off center; proudly announcing that foam recycling takes place here!

Our Foam Cycle container is lockable which allows you to process Foam Packaging waste in a secure outdoor environment preventing unauthorized users from accessing the equipment. The Foam Cycle's metal enclosure is a specially designed ISO certified shipping container built new to our specifications. ISO certification defines a container that meets size, strength, and durability requirements along with structural integrity suitable for multiple transportation methods such as truck, rail or ship so you know it’s built strong.

Each Foam Cycle container comes equipped with a leading manufacturer’s compact and versatile foam densifier machine capable of volume reducing your collected EPS Foam at a ratio of 90-1. Hourly processing rates vary per model from 50 lbs. to 200 lbs. per hour. The unit also comes with inside lighting, built in exhaust fans and comes fully wired for an easy outside electrical connection. Also included is one drop-off Foam Collection Container. Lastly and equally as important, each Foam Cycle container comes with our 100% support including recycling collection information and hand out suggestions to insure that your foam collection program is a complete success!

Pictured above is a bag of loose Foam Packaging waste that was heading to the landfill. With the Foam Cycle system, this bag of foam will now be densified on site and reduced in size at a ratio of 90-1 by removing 98% of the air that makes up Foam Packaging. The leftover 2% residual material from this process is pure polystyrene plastic called a foam ingot (pictured on the right). Ingots are used as feedstock for picture frames made by our sister company Better Frame that are manufactured right here in the US!

Each Foam Cycle system comes with one durable all-weather Foam Collection Container. This container is a great way to collect and transport Foam Packaging material from one or more locations in your town to the Foam Cycle System for processing. Each container comes with 3 lightweight collections and bags.

Additional containers can be added to any foam collection program.

This unique and custom designed cargo trailer is used to extend Foam Packaging waste collection within a community. Placing the main Foam Cycle system at the “Hub” or anchor location, these trailers could be used as a “Spoke” and placed in more rural areas or at local colleges and universities. It can also be used at Special Waste and Earth Day events.

It’s a great addition to your foam collection program!
