Environmental Benefits
There is a high demand for re-processed polypropylene with a vast array of applications. Who knows, the bumper on your car may be made from recycled CoolSeal boxes!
The flat empty boxes can be baled or simply palletised for collection by a plastics reprocessor. Polypropylene has a higher raw material value than EPS and reprocessing costs are significantly lower.
Key features of CoolSeal
CoolSeal can be safely disposed of with general plastic waste. PP’s melt-flow index makes it very flexible in the waste stream. Even this option generates huge savings, with skip hire costs slashed and avoiding the ever increasing landfill charges.
This is because CoolSeal when flattened has less than 10% of the volume of EPS. It is also inert and can be safely thermally recycled. It is stable in a landfill so that it will not create dangerous soft spots where lorries can tip over as sometimes occurs with EPS that re-expands. We regard landfill as the least desirable method of disposal that should only be used as a last resort.
