GPPS Regrind

GPPS Regrind is a recycled form of General Purpose Polystyrene (GPPS) obtained through the controlled grinding and processing of clean, post-industrial or post-consumer GPPS products. Known for its excellent clarity, rigidity, and ease of processing, GPPS Regrind is a cost-effective alternative to virgin GPPS resin. This material maintains the lightweight, high stiffness, and dimensional stability of polystyrene, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of applications in the plastics industry.

Our Quality Assurance and Shipping Process

Material Guarantee We assure you that the material will meet the specifications of the loading pictures and the sample provided prior to shipment. Customer satisfaction and transparency are our top priorities.

Our Step-by-Step Process

1. Quality Inspection:
• Before finalizing the shipment, our Quality Control (QC) team conducts a thorough inspection of the material to ensure it meets the agreed-upon standards.
• Detailed videos and pictures of the material are captured during the inspection and shared with the customer for approval.
2. Container Booking:
• Once the customer approves the material, a container is booked on the next available vessel to ensure prompt delivery.
• The booking details, including the shipping schedule, are shared with the customer for tracking purposes.
3. Loading and Documentation:
• The material is carefully loaded into the container.
• During loading, we document the entire process with pictures and videos, capturing essential details such as:
• Material condition
• Loading procedure
• Container and seal numbers
• These visuals, along with the draft of the Bill of Lading (BL), are shared with the customer for verification.
4. BL Draft Confirmation:
• The customer reviews and confirms the BL draft.
• Based on the confirmation, the Original Bill of Lading (OBL) is issued.
• A copy of the OBL is then shared with the customer.

Key Features & Properties:

• Material: General Purpose Polystyrene (GPPS)

• Form: Clean, uniform regrind / flakes

• Color: Transparent, natural, or mixed depending on source

• Density: ~1.04 – 1.06 g/cm³

• Melt Flow Index (MFI): ~2 – 6 g/10 min (varies by batch)

• Clarity: High transparency and gloss (depending on grade)

• Mechanical Properties:

  • Excellent rigidity and dimensional stability

  • Good compressive strength

  • Moderate impact resistance

• Processing: Suitable for injection molding and extrusion

Applications:

GPPS Regrind is commonly used in industries where clarity, stiffness, and cost efficiency are required. Typical uses include:

• Disposable products such as cups, cutlery, and trays

• Household goods and consumer items

• Food packaging materials (non-contact or after blending with virgin GPPS)

• Stationery and office supplies

• Toys and lightweight molded items

• Extruded sheets, thermoformed products, and profiles

• Blending with HIPS or virgin GPPS to optimize cost and performance

Advantages:

• Cost-effective: Reduces raw material costs compared to virgin GPPS

• Eco-friendly: Encourages recycling and sustainable production

• Excellent clarity and gloss: Ideal for transparent applications

• Versatile: Compatible with multiple plastic processing methods

• Lightweight & rigid: Ensures high dimensional accuracy and stability
