Megaplot Expands into Professional Recycling Solutions with New Compactors and Densifiers

For over 30 years, Megaplot has been synonymous with precision foam cutting. From our industry-leading CNC hotwire machines to our high-speed Fastwire series, we have helped over 7,000 customers in 103 countries transform raw materials into architectural masterpieces, industrial insulation, and intricate signage.

Today, we are thrilled to announce a significant expansion of our product lineup. To support the full lifecycle of foam processing and help our clients meet growing sustainability goals, we are introducing a new range of professional waste management equipment: The Febus Series Compactors and Ares Series Densifiers.

Closing the Loop: From Cutting to Recycling

We know that every high-efficiency cutting operation inevitably produces scrap material. Historically, bulky foam waste like EPS (Styrofoam) has been a logistical headache—expensive to store, difficult to transport, and often destined for landfills.

With our new REPSYCLERS line, we are turning that waste problem into a revenue stream. By integrating these high-end recycling solutions into your workflow, you can reduce foam volume by up to 90 times, significantly lowering disposal costs and creating a dense, high-value product that recycling companies are eager to buy.

The New Lineup: Febus vs. Ares

Our new recycling range is divided into two specialized series to fit your specific operational needs:

  • FEBUS Compactors (Cold Compression): Using advanced screw compression technology with no heat, the Febus series is an odorless, energy-efficient solution. It is ideal for handling EPS, XPS, PSP, and EPP. With a 50:1 compression ratio, it turns loose foam into manageable blocks (200-400 kg/m³) and even works effectively with damp material.
  • ARES Densifiers (Melting Technology): For operations requiring maximum volume reduction, the Ares series utilizes screw melting technology to achieve a 90:1 compression ratio. This results in solid polystyrene logs with a density of 600-800 kg/m³. A single 40HQ container can hold up to 25 tons of Ares-processed material, making it the ultimate choice for high-volume industrial plants looking to maximize transport efficiency.

Why Choose Megaplot Recycling Solutions?

These are not just “add-ons”; they are robust, industrial-grade machines backed by over 15 years of R&D and the same European engineering quality you expect from Megaplot.
