EPS is the Number 1 Choice for the Environment and Packaging Performance
The EPS Packaging Group has written to the BBC to complain about these comments and to give them up-to-date information about EPS and its environmental performance. "In fact EPS has a very good environmental record," explains Andrew Barnetson, Environmental Affairs Manager of the EPS Packaging Group. "The manufacturing process is energy and resource efficient, EPS packaging uses very small amounts of material because it is 98 per cent air and 4,500 tonnes of EPS were recycled in the year 2000. The EPS Packaging Group is also keen to remind customers that expanded polystyrene does not only have a good environmental record it also offers performance that is second to none. "The unique qualities of EPS have made it the market leader in protective packaging. EPS can be moulded into complex shapes, variable densities, and in different forms such as, fire retardant, coloured, skinned, printed or insert moulded. "EPS can be designed to meet a customer’s individual requirements at a reasonable cost. We believe that these performance factors and its clean environmental performance will make EPS the market leader for decades to come," states Barnetson.
