Turning Foam Waste Into Eco-Friendly Solutions

About Our Densifiers

PWH-300 Heavy Duty Thermal Styrofoam Densifier

The PWH-300 stands as one of our flagship and highly sought-after densifiers. This hand-fed machine efficiently processes foam by shredding it, simultaneously applying heat to densify and extrude purge blocks, resulting in the production of recyclable final products. Capable of densifying expanded polystyrene (EPS), expanded polyethylene (EPE), and expanded polypropylene (EPP), the PWH-300 offers versatility in waste management solutions.

Made in America

Our unwavering commitment to excellence and dependability is evident in our choice to produce all our machines in the USA. Opting for local manufacturing underscores our emphasis on quality control while reaffirming our dedication to bolstering the American economy and workforce. This decision enables us to meticulously oversee each stage of production, from procuring top-notch materials to implementing stringent quality assurance protocols.

Turn Your Foam Waste Into Cash

Densifying foam waste minimizes and, in most cases, eliminates haul-away fees significantly reducing costs for businesses. In addition, the densified foam has value and can be reused to make things like picture frames, furniture, toys and park benches. The combination of haul-away savings and the value of the densified product typically results in a return on investment in 12-18 months!

Simple Operation

  1. Setting Temperature: Initiate by adjusting the desired operating temperature using the control panel of the densifier. The appropriate temperature setting varies depending on the type of the foam being processed.
  2. Heating Process: Allow the system time to heat up to the designated temperature.
  3. Auger Activation: Once the system reaches the specified temperature, the auger will automatically commence operation. This component ensures a consistent material flow for processing.
  4. Shredder Activation: Following the activation of the auger, the shredder component of the densifier will engage. Responsible for breaking down larger styrofoam pieces into smaller, more manageable pieces, the shredder prepares the material for densification.
  5. Ready for Operation: With both the auger and shredder now operational, the PolyWiz Thermal Styrofoam Densifier is primed for use. You can begin feeding Styrofoam waste into the hopper, initiating the processing phase.
  6. System Shutdown: Simply push the system stop button. The shredder will stop followed by the auger and heat.

Simplified System Maintenance

Positioned strategically on a singular, user-friendly panel, all grease fittings ensure lubrication tasks are both effortless and convenient. This arrangement not only simplifies maintenance procedures but also motivates operators to adhere to routine upkeep schedules. By streamlining maintenance protocols and offering easy access to crucial components, we empower our clients to maintain the longevity and efficiency of their equipment, ultimately enhancing productivity and minimizing downtime.

  • Easy to access grease fittings all in one convenient location
  • Easy to remove guard to access drive chain and apply lubricant
  • Easy to locate hole for simple gear oil application
  • And that’s it! Machine maintenance is simple with PolyWiz!

Feeding the Machine

Our thermal densifiers come equipped with a manual feeding system, providing operators with complete control over the input process. This manual feeding mechanism enables operators to closely monitor and adjust the rate at which foam waste is fed into the densifier. This hands-on approach offers flexibility in handling different types of foam materials, ensuring efficient processing while reducing the risk of jams or overloading.

What Materials Can it Densify?

  • Expanded Polystyrene (EPS)
  • Expanded Polyethylene (EPE)
  • Expanded Polypropylene (EPP)
