How to turn mixed plastic waste and bottles into ecobricks
A step-by-step guide to making ecobricks: free building materials made by stuffing non-recyclable plastic waste inside plastic bottles.
A well-made ecobrick is very solid and can be used in simple construction and furniture. This technique is very simple and is suitable for many types of waste plastic. It is ideal for places with no waste management.
