RESIN8® is a revolutionary green business solution that tackles the pressing issue of plastic waste in construction materials. By utilizing hard-to-recycle plastic waste, RESIN8® creates a lightweight, thermally insulating, and structurally sound aggregate that enhances the performance of cement and asphalt mixes.

Through a proprietary process developed by CRDC, mixed plastic is meticulously cleaned, shredded, and transformed into a mineral-polymer composite. This composite not only meets construction-grade performance requirements but also offers improved compressive strength, reduced weight, and enhanced thermal and acoustic insulation properties.

Unlike traditional fillers or aggregates, RESIN8® goes beyond mere functionality by significantly reducing environmental impact. By repurposing plastics that would otherwise end up in landfills or oceans, RESIN8® contributes to a circular economy by giving new life to materials with no economic pathway.

Designed to seamlessly integrate into existing manufacturing systems, RESIN8® can be customized for various applications such as blocks, precast elements, and road surfacing. This versatility allows for widespread adoption across the construction industry, offering a scalable solution to both plastic waste reduction and the embodied carbon of building materials.
