EPS foam cold pressing machine is a highly efficient machine designed for the treatment of waste EPS foam (such as polystyrene foam). The machine greatly reduces the volume of loose, bulky EPS foam by compressing it into high-density, easy-to-store-and-transport blocks through cold-pressing technology.
Introduction of EPS Foam Cold Pressing Machine
We offer two types of Foam compactor machines, vertical and horizontal, which customers can choose according to their specific needs. Our cold presses range from 150-250kg/h and have very high compression ratios, capable of compressing foam to 1/40th of its original volume. Both vertical and horizontal foam compactors can help companies improve the efficiency of waste foam recycling, reduce logistic costs, and increase economic benefits.
Raw Materials & Compacted Results
The main raw material processed by the styrofoam compactor is waste EPS foam (e.g. polystyrene foam), which usually comes from packaging, insulation materials, and disposable tableware. Through the treatment of the foam compactor, these raw materials can be compressed into high-density blocks.
After compression, the size of the finished foam is greatly reduced, making it easier to store and transport. The high-density compressed blocks not only reduce the volume occupied by the waste foam during transportation but also facilitate subsequent recycling.
The compacted foam increases density and decreases volume, which is convenient for stacking, storage, and transportation.

Advantages of Styrofoam Compactor
- EPS foam cold pressing styrofoam densifier efficiently compresses plastic foam from large to small sizes with a compression ratio of up to 1:40. The compressed blocks facilitate foam recycling, stacking, storage, and transportation. Save space, reduce transportation costs, and increase economic benefits.
- EPS foam cold pressing styrofoam densifier has excellent performance, compact size, low noise, easy and convenient operation, and maintenance.
- High efficiency and good performance of the compression process. All parts are concentrated in one machine, saving cost, low energy consumption, and small footprint.
- Sturdy and durable: the machine structure is sturdy and made of high-quality materials, which ensures the long-term stable operation of the equipment and reduces the failure rate.
Principle of EPS Foam Compactor
The styrofoam compactors compress waste EPS foam into high-density blocks by mechanical pressure. The working principle is as follows:
- Raw material placement: First, put the waste EPS foam into the inlet of the styrofoam compactor.
- Pre-crushing: After feeding, the foam material is preliminarily crushed by the pre-crushing mechanism into smaller blocks or pieces for better compression.
- Compression: The crushed foam fragments enter the compression chamber, where a hydraulic or mechanical drive system generates a strong compression force to compress the foam material into high-density blocks.
- Finished product output: After compression into high-density blocks, the finished product is discharged through the outlet. The compressed blocks usually have high density and stability for subsequent storage and transportation.
2 Types of Plastic Foam Compactor
Vertical EPS Foam Compactor
The inlet of our vertical EPS foam compactor is located directly above the machine, so the foam can enter the compression chamber smoothly. The vertical foam compactor utilizes a highly efficient hydraulic system to compress foam into high-density blocks using vertical compression.
| Machine type | Machine size (mm) | Inlet size (mm) | Machine power (KW) | Capacity (KG/H) |
| 300 | 3000*1400*1400 | 1100*800 | 11 | 150 |
| 400 | 4600*1600*1600 | 1200*1000 | 22 | 250 |
Horizontal EPS Foam Compactor
The inlet of our horizontal EPS foam compactor is flush with the ground, which is convenient for putting foam waste directly from the ground, reducing the labor intensity and time of feeding.
| Machine type | Machine size (mm) | Inlet size (mm) | Machine power (KW) | Capacity (KG/H) |
| 300 | 3000*1700*900 | 830*760 | 15 | 175 |
| 400 | 4600*2800*1200 | 870*860 | 22 | 300 |
Whether horizontal or vertical foam compactors, they can adjust the density and shape of the foam material by controlling the pressure and compression time. By choosing the type of EPS foam cold pressing machine that suits your needs, you can effectively improve the utilization rate and transportation efficiency of your foam materials. If you have questions about choosing vertical or horizontal, you can contact us for help and professional advice.
