"Encourage garbage sorting and advocate environmentally friendly living" is becoming more and more popular in China and the world. Can waste melamine tableware be recycled? Let's get a deep understanding.
Bamboo Melamine Tableware
Melamine tableware is a thermosetting plastic product made of melamine compounds.
Actually, there is one new kind of bamboo melamine tableware made of pure melamine powder and bamboo powder, which is very popular today. The bamboo part of this new type of tableware is environmentally friendly because it's degradable.
Although melamine cannot be melted like other plastics, it can be crushed to recycle composite materials used as plastic and wood filler. Therefore, the discarded melamine tableware can be recycled and reused to make sockets and other non-food items. For garbage sorting, waste melamine tableware is recyclable garbage.
Recyclable waste refers to waste that is suitable for recycling and reuse at market prices, and mainly includes five categories.
Waste paper: mainly includes newspapers, periodicals, books, all kinds of packaging paper, office paper, advertising paper, paper boxes, etc.;
