Beautiful Innovation of New Building Materials

REMIXTIO LLC is developing a process to convert discarded, landfill-bound plastics into durable polymer–sand landscape pavers and related building products.

The problem

Only a small fraction of U.S. plastic is actually recycled. Since China halted imports of U.S. plastic scrap in 2018, communities have faced growing landfill volumes and too few domestic uses for the material.

~7%

of U.S. plastic is estimated to actually be recycled.

2018

China's scrap ban removed a major outlet for U.S. recycled plastics.

Local

We need domestic, practical products that put this material back to work.

Our solution

A polymer–sand composite process that combines discarded plastics with sand to form solid hardscape products. We are pursuing R&D toward consistent, manufacturable output and pilot manufacturing.

Grind

Sort and grind plastics to a uniform size. Never PVC.

Melt

Heat the plastic under controlled conditions.

Blend

Mix the molten plastic with sand.

Press

Press the blend in molds to form pavers.

Products

Starting with landscape hardscape, then expanding into logistics.

Now in development

Polymer–sand landscape pavers

Pavers and related building products made from landfill-bound plastics and sand.

Future

Recycled plastic shipping pallets

In-house and commercial pallets made from the same recycled plastic stream.
