Mpact Versapak has engaged with the Polystyrene Association of South Africa to develop a campaign that will eliminate the many myths about polystyrene as a packaging medium and bring the facts to the forefront.

Other than correcting the most common myths, it also addresses the safe use of polystyrene and explains the recyclability thereof.

By correcting the beliefs about this packaging medium, Versapak can make a positive contribution to the market and assist consumers to make positive environmental changes by changing their polystyrene recycling habits. Polystyrene is recycled into many items that we all use on a daily basis.
