ABS and polystyrene scrap buyers: who uses styrenics
ABS and polystyrenes (HIPS, GPPS, EPS) come from appliance and electronics housings, automotive parts, toys, cups and packaging. Clean production scrap is easy to place with compounders; plastics from electronics need sorting and information on flame retardants.
