Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is great for protecting the products you need to run your business, but it can take up valuable storage and waste disposal space. It may be lightweight, but polystyrene is bulky and therefore costly to transport with your general waste. It can also create a mess if not properly contained. With a drawstring bag option to easily contain pieces for collection (or transfer to a larger bin) and regular recycling pick-ups, you can get that pesky polystyrene safely collected and out of your way in no time.

Ideal for

Easy to manage, regular collection of your EPS packaging volumes.

Used by

• Medical centres and hospitals
• Doctors’ surgeries
• Importers, retailers and wholesalers
• Builders
