One look at the recycling bins at the Student Centre will tell you that most people don't know the answer to this question. No, neither of these items are recyclable on campus. This is a VERY serious problem for recycling at Mac, as every cup that's mistakenly thrown in a recycling bin brings that bin one step closer to being contaminated beyond salvage.

Polystyrene (PS) is a versatile plastic that can be rigid or foamed. General purpose polystyrene is clear, hard and brittle. It has a relatively low melting point. Typical applications include protective packaging, containers, lids, cups, bottles and trays.

EPS is constructed from millions of tiny air cells fused in manufacturing to form a rigid material. EPS contains no CFC's or HCFC's and has a zero ozone depletion rating. In fact, it is totally inert and considered one of the best insulating materials available.

Expanded polystyrene is foamed polystyrene, a common plastic. Expanded polystyrene is widely used in the building industry as insulating material and is noted for its safe properties for installers and consumers and the durability of its high insulating quality.

The use of EPS as rigid thermal insulation gives the ThermaSteel panel the following advantages: R-Values are consistent and stable due to the closed cellular structure, which contains stabilized air.

Each year as a nation we produce 27 million tonnes of waste and nearly 80% of this material ends up dumped in the ground. Hampshire is running out of landfill site. We have three state of the art incinerators which are among the cleanest in Europe, but these cannot cope with the amount of waste that is collected in Hampshire. We will have to start exporting our waste to other authorities, which will incur additional costs.
