Recycle Molded Polystyrene 

Atlas Molded Products’ plants are drop-off facilities for smaller quantities of post-consumer polystyrene. Atlas will refer consumers to the proper professional recycling facility when the quantities to be recycled surpass Atlas's capabilities.

• #6 Molded Polystyrene foam plastic that is white, clean, dry and free of debris.  Such as insulated coolers or protective packaging for electronics, household goods, and toys.

• Food-service and extruded polystyrene containers such as cups, plates, takeout containers, meat trays, egg cartons or packaging peanuts.
• All non-foam polystyrene plastics such as yogurt containers, silverware, plastic bags, beverage containers, or CD cases. As a molded polystyrene manufacturer other polystyrene products cannot be processed by our equipment, to locate a recycler for these products go to www.americanchemistry.com.

• Polystyrene foam material for recycling must be bagged, bundled, boxed, or banded for internal handling at Atlas Molded Products.
• Drop-off polystyrene foam at any Atlas Molded Products plant location. Please call in advance to confirm hours of operation and plant-specific recycling details.

• Mail-Back Program through the Polystyrene Industry Alliance.
• Loose Fill Peanut Recycling: Call the National Peanut Hotline 800.828.2214 or go to www.epspackaging.org. In many instances peanuts can be recycled at a UPS store. Contact your local UPS store for more information.
• Businesses that are interested in developing an ongoing recycling program with Atlas Molded Products should email info@achfoam.com or call 855.597.4427 for more information.

Customers and the public can also get more involved with their local municipalities to create momentum for polystyrene recycling at the community level. From manufacturers to distributors, the public and the government, it’s a shared responsibility to improve the post-consumer recycling of polystyrene and we need everyone’s participation.
