Mattress recycling
As with the more general category of municipal solid waste, a sorting process must be carried out for mattresses before shredding. Sorting consists of dividing the material with higher added value, which can be recycled, from the remaining material that cannot be recycled but will be sent for incineration.
There are many uses for old mattresses after recycling: the textile part is used to create thermal insulation for buildings; mattress springs become construction material; cotton fibres are used in the production of oil filters, doormats and upholstery.
