A Taiwanese company represents the care of the end of life for more than 1,000 garbage research and transforms waste into permanent, long -lasting building materials.
Miniwiz believes that “garbage is of the possibility”, according to his official website. Designers and engineers in the unique trashlab of the corporate “only the elimination of the upcycling potential of this abundant but deeply harmful resource” created 1,200 sustainable building materials, keeping waste away from overcrowded landfills.
“We take remaining construction waste, remaining fiber waste, plastic or packaging waste and are transformed into a building that you can use for another 30 years,” CEO Arthur Huang told Time Magazine. With “very stupid logic”: use of the carbon “it has already produced”.
This concept is simple, but is gained to steam and willing to revolutionize the construction and construction sector, which, according to the UN environmental program, makes 37% of the global environmental programs of the UN environmental industry.
In addition to reducing pollution in connection with more intense extreme weather, the construction with upcycled materials lowers the production costs that ultimately reduce business costs and real estate prices and can do other economically advantageous wavy effects.
Miniwiz's high -performance materials come from insect shells, water bottles, rice shells, oyster shells and much more. Perhaps one of the most impressive achievements is the earthquake and fire-resistant eco-park a nine-story exhibition structure, which is produced with 1.5 million plastic bottles and driven by the sun.
Watch now: Would you live in a building of weeds?
The company, founded in 2005, also provided advanced walls for the flagship shop in Hong Kong in Airside. It was able to reduce carbon pollution compared to conventional materials in accordance with an emission summary preserved after the time.
And while Miniwiz hits waves in the construction waves, other projects show that it corresponds to the declared mission of a circular economy, “from the smallest products to full infrastructure”. This includes sunglasses from recycled beach waste and upcycled vacation decorations.
“Our projects include a large area and try to deal with the greatest upcycling challenges of our time,” writes Miniwiz on his website. “Our new goal is to make our consumers in recyclers.”
