Please see below checklist to help recycle polystyrene offcuts:
- As a customer of an EPSA member, you should have been provided with the EPSA Recycle Bags so your polystyrene off-cuts can be picked up and put it back into manufacturing sustainable building materials.
- Clean Polystyrene Only. There must be no trace of glue, paint, labels, render or cement on the polystyrene. All polystyrene must be free from contamination to be recycled.
- Do not place other building materials and site rubbish within these bags.
- Once the bags are full, they need to be fully sealed, tied down and secured at the front of the building site.
- Contact your supplier (EPSA member) when recycle bags with off-cuts are read to be picked up.
Please ensure these steps are strictly followed – we will not be able to collect polystyrene that is contaminated.
Thanks for partnering with us to divert polystyrene from landfill and contribute to the recycled content of future products.
