The field of <\/span>construction, urban planning and building have a strong impact on the urban environment and the identity and image of any locality.<\/b> In addition to this merely aesthetic influence, they also involve a series of <\/span>sustainability and environmental issues<\/b>, which are of increasing concern among citizens. <\/span> The truth is that the various <\/span>construction and building processes generate a great deal of energy waste<\/b>, tons of waste <\/span>derived from the demolition or restoration of spaces, consumption of aggregates and considerable CO2 emissions into the atmosphere <\/b>(currently 40% of the planet’s total CO2 emissions).<\/span> For all these reasons, it is essential <\/span>to start looking at other more responsible construction models<\/b>, maintaining the growth of the economy, but <\/span>making better use of natural resources<\/b> as well as the management and use of waste.<\/span> <\/p>\n

Therefore, the industry and the citizens themselves must consider the<\/span> Construction with recycled materials, also known as secondary materials. And the truth is that there are many practical options that these materials allow, <\/span>while guaranteeing the circular economy<\/b> without having to use raw materials.<\/span><\/p>\n

In short, why resort to polluting materials, if we can replace them with a construction with recycled materials with a minimum environmental impact?<\/span><\/p>\n

And that’s what we’ve come to talk about today, <\/span>what are the best recycled materials for construction and how we could use them in the urban environment.<\/b><\/p>\n

A very efficient and sustainable option to replace conventional walls are recycled rubber and plastic bricks, also called <\/span>polyethylene-terephthalate<\/b> (PET) <\/span> bricks.This type of material represents a great saving in terms of construction costs, time and of course the use of raw materials.<\/span><\/p>\n
