In modern society, express packaging materials are mainly paper boxes, plastic bags, etc., which are not easy to recycle.In 2019, 46 million tons of corrugated cardboard is used for express packages, equivalent to 72 million trees.According to the survey, 85% of express packages are not effectively recycled. Excessive use will lead to environmental pollution and waste of resources.This design overturns the traditional form of packaging and emphasizes the recycling of packaging materials.This design uses the thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) as a packaging material, TPU with light weight, high hardness, elasticity, etc, especially for the nature of the mutual transformation between liquid and solid, very suitable for instead of traditional way of packing, we use TPU packaging can minimize the package in transit in the economic and material loss, can better promote the sustainable development of green ecological.The process of this recycling system is as follows:The recycled TPU packaging box is heated to melt and soften, and then the items to be packaged are put into the softened TPU. The equipment automatically detects the size and packages the TPU, then cools the TPU to solid state, finally takes out the packaged TPU for delivery.When people take out the items, the TPU packaging is recycled and put into the device.
