XPS Waste

XPS (Extruded Polystyrene) is a foam material widely used in the construction industry. It has a firm structure and is often used as a base for heavy construction. It can be used as insulation for flat roofs or as protective packaging for furniture during transport.

XPS contains a great deal of air, which makes it suitable for compacting. This is a good solution in connection with building demolition or for manufacturers of XPS containing elements with off-cuts or faulty manufacture that must be disposed of.

Recycling XPS

The cost of transport and handling can be reduced significantly by compacting the material at the source. The compacted XPS blocks can be sold for recycling instead of ending up being expensive regular waste.

RUNI XPS Compactor

RUNI has a model of the SK370 screw compactor with extra equipment for dealing with the XPS because its structure makes it difficult to compact. When the XPS is fed into a Heavy Duty pre-crusher, it is crushed into smaller pieces, and the screw and hydraulic jaws compact it into uniform blocks. These blocks can be stacked on a pallet. The machine can be fed manually into a 45° hopper or with a conveyor belt into a vertical hopper. The different incorporated sensors ensure easy operation with automatic start and stop functions. It is also possible to install the compactor below a silo for XPS dust or smaller pieces.
