Our national levels of recycling polystyrene material exceed 650 metric tonnes per year.
Sustainability
Foamex is committed to a sustainable environment. This commitment to the environment has meant that we have the highest level of pod recycling in Australia.
The unique aspect of our business allows for Diamond Pod offcuts to be picked up from sites, which reduces the volume of waste sent to landfill. Scrap is cleared and then recycled into our Diamond Pods. Recyclability is built into our process.
The inclusion of Diamond Pods in a slab adds an insulation benefit of up to R1.0 (W/mK Thermal Resistance), while making the house warmer in winter and cooler in summer. This also reduces the overall energy consumption in the house
