Each bag is opened upon receipt and visually inspected for any non-compliant materials, then consolidated for processing in bulk.

Consolidated materials are then heated and densified to remove encapsulated inert gasses. Densified materials are further size-reduced and blended with additional plastics, then sold for use in foam product manufacturing.
