The company stated that EPS is 100% recyclable with a very low carbon footprint. It is a positive insulator that preserves the temperature of food for extended periods and does not biodegrade or contaminate air or water.

EPS packaging provides protection for food and enhances its shelf-life, decreasing food waste.
