Recycling Plastic with a Purpose.
With humans digesting more than 40 pounds of plastic during their lives, this is a problem of more than just trash or pollution. Turning plastic into smart gravel solves both the challenges of plastic waste and better construction materials. Arqlite is a recycling technology company building the next generation of sustainable building materials. Our green technology is changing the plastic recycling industry with the capability to process up to 1 ton of non-recyclable plastics per hour, which can be used for green construction gravel, light aggregate, hydroponic growth media, drainage media, and more.
