All non-biodegradable materials should be used as high-quality renewable materials for products in the technosphere.
A typical waste product like EPS or polystyrene is used daily as a package material for TV’s, refridgerators, coffees and hamburgers and is one of the toughest materials for nature to degrade. It takes on average up to 90 years to fully degrade a coffee cup, but when reborn in RexwallTM composite buidling plates the same coffe cup has lots to offer to the environment.
