Summary

Polyfoam is lightweight but the volume is large, adding a burden to the landfills. To reduce the pressure on landfill space, we can choose to recycle it as far as we can. Campus Sustainability Office will hold a polyfoam collection exercise to collect Expanded Polyethylene (EPE) and Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) materials. Collected materials will be sent to Missing Link - Polyfoam Recycling Scheme 迷失的寶藏: 發泡膠回收行動.

 

What to recycle
  • Expanded Polyethylene (EPE): Foam fruit net, packaging and packing sheet.
  • Expanded Polystyrene (EPS): Polyfoam box, packing peanut, polyfoam board, disposable food container (rinsed), packaging and fruit tray.

*Please remove the tapes, labels, and contaminants before recycling.
