Plastic Outdoor High Density Composite Polymer (HDCP) Tiles

1. Made from: shampoo bottles, cleaners, disposable restaurant containers, milk covers and water bottles.

2. How: using waste plastic, different types of polymers are combined with mixing agents to build heat
resistant, unbreakable, anti-microbial and anti-skidding tiles.
 For the tile making process the plastic waste is further segregated into three parts — toys, disposable
cutlery, chairs, and tables, which consist of Polypropylene (PP); PET bottles, their caps, and crates
are made of High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE); while the Low-Density Polyethylene makes up milk
pouches. These are then shredded into millions of pieces, some bland some boisterous. Once
shredded, the plastic is sent for washing, drying, mixing (with granules that help in making the tiles
anti-microbial), extruding. Mixers are added to generate pellets that are then heated and cast into
moulds. The tiles can be used for pavements, jogger paths.
 It takes 3-4 tonnes of plastic waste to manufacture approximately 10,000 tiles every day.
 During the process of manufacturing of thee tiles, no hazardous gases or harmful chemical
substances are released. The processes used to manufacture HDCP tiles are environment friendly and
have been approved by necessary pollution control authorities.

4. Quality and Features

a. Tiles come with a guarantee fo 50 years. Tiles if damaged can be re-used to manufacture new
tiles.
b. Heat resistant: upto 140 Deg C. Cold Resistant: upto -25 Deg C.
c. Fire Retardant, Corrosion Resistant, Anti-Static, Anti-Skiding, Acid-Proof, Unbreakable
d. Load carrying Capacity: upto 35 tonne.
e. Interlocking edge design – to eliminate the use of adhesive and making installation faster and
inexpensive.
f. They can be installed directly over the damaged or problem floors with minimal sub-floor
preparations.
g. Moreover, they are resistant to most solvents, chemicals and abrasions, and simple to
maintain, reconfigure or remove.
h. These tiles also have rainwater harvesting capabilities, are water-proof, anti-microbial,
chemical and stain-resistant, besides allowing for the possibility of applying different artwork
and design depending on the customers’ requirements.
i. Recyclable: Only homogeneous material has been used in these tiles, unlike other tiles where
fly ash, sand, and other things are mixed. This makes it recyclable.
 j. HDCP tile inspection test established by the ASTM (American Society of Testing and
Materials) include tensile strength, flammability, thermal stability, compression strength, water
absorption analysis, UV accelerated weathering, fire retardant, antistatic, zero halogen with no
emission, glass transition temperature, permeability, environmental stability, resistance against
strong acids & bases tests.

3 Waste Bins The structures are fully customizable interns of dimensions

and sizes. We currently offer waste bins made out of
HDCP tile sad Smart Toilet structures made using HDCP
tiles.

The toilet is stand-alone toilet meaning that it can be

dismantled and moved whenever needed. It is also cost-
4 Public Toilets effective as it costs around Rs. 40,000.
The height is eight feet and is a 4×4 model. The walls and
flooring will be made from 400-500 kilos of plastic waste.

6. Other Outdoor Usage

Roofing Tiles, Park Walkways, Swimming Pool and Outdoor Structures like Security Cabin, Guard Huts, and
Public Toilets within the Project can be constructed with a service life of 25-30 Years.
