Waste to Wealth Plastic Blocks
Waste to Wealth Plastic Blocks - Giving new life to waste products for construction and infrastructure
Waste to Wealth re-processes waste products from the building and materials sectors and turns them into bricks, offering a sustainable and cost-competitive solution.
Vast quantities of waste are being generated across the world, and all too often no solutions are in place to reuse or recycle this waste. Rhino Machines' Solution addresses two key sources of waste: Foundry dust (an industrial waste by-product), and plastic. These two waste products are combined, mixed and processed to produce a high quality, durable and affordable brick structure, providing an alternative to the traditional 'red brick' used in construction and infrastructure. The Waste to Wealth Plastic Brick offers double the strength of a traditional brick at a lower weight and a competitive price, all whilst reducing waste.
