Abstract

Rapid urbanization due to quick transitions and inventions in technologies and products leads us to develop and cater to the needs of the present generation, but with a question of sustainability. Plastic is one of those inventions which was a good solution at its initial production. Then slowly, it made us realize its disposing disability. Itis deteriorating. This research, covers a few efficient iterations of its upcycle as infill materials in built spaces that reduce thermal transmission and improve the overall building energy consumption, improving the climatic response of the built area and terminating the contamination and misuse of land and other resources
