A Welsh company, Affresol, has developed a modular house from recycled plastic that is mixed with a harder-than-concrete pourable resin, which is waterproof, fire retardant and rot proof. MHProNews has been informed by cltampa that each Thermo Poly Rock saves 18 tons of waste from landfills, and five or more trees from being cut into plywood.
