LIXIL has developed "revia," a circular building material that reuses hard-to-recycle plastic waste by combining it with waste wood. This innovative process allows different materials to be crushed and extruded together without sorting, making it possible to effectively use almost all household and commercial waste plastics. Revia aims to address the issue of plastic waste and reduce CO2 emissions by over 80% compared to burning waste plastics and wood. The material is versatile, boasting a handmade, wood-like texture, and is suitable for various applications, from building materials to everyday products.
