Our goal is to aid in the transition from a linear “throwaway” economy to a circular economy. Styrofoam is one of the most common type of plastics and by recycling it and not “throwing it away”, the end product is then re-used to create new products.

Recycling Styrofoam shifts the disposal from the landfill to a circular economy. We encourage our Residential and Commercial customers to remove any contaminants from the Styrofoam to maximize the amount that is diverted from the landfill.

Recycled Styrofoam is re-used in place of virgin resin to make new products. This significantly reduces green house gas emissions, reduces raw resource extraction and prevents pollution.

We collect and process the Styrofoam which is then turned it into new materials. This prevents the Styrofoam waste from polluting landfills, oceans and ecosystems. This process conserves non-renewable fossil fuels, reduces green house gas emissions, and lessens the need to manufacture new, raw plastics.


Styro-Go has developed the technology to offer recycling of polystyrene (EPS- commonly referred to by the brand name Styrofoam) in a cost-efficient method.

Polystyrene is still the safest packaging for food, medical and other products with the highest antimicrobial rating compared
to other packaging.

Less than 2% of polystyrene products are
recycled even though they are among the
most easily recycled plastics.

Regular polystyrene used to ship products
typically weighs about 0.5 lbs per cubic foot.
After Styro-Go processes it we increase the
density to over 60 lbs per cubic foot.

Studies from California and University of Victoria have shown that polystyrene is the LEAST carbon intensive shipping product to produce when including both upstream and downstream carbon cost and GHG footprint!

Polystyrene is widely available around the world
and is cheap to produce making it both the most economical and safest packaging material available.

Polystyrene is one of only a few plastics that can be recycled in BOTH an open AND closed loop. It can be recycled into brand new virginmpolystyrene as well as reclaimed (regrind) polystyrene or into other products entirely.
