POLLI-BRICKS: Green Building Material


The buildings in which we live and work in, contribute more than 40% of the CO2 issues we face. Moreover, industrialized/first-world urban centers have been estimated by some to contribute 90% of the greenhouse gas emissions produced by man.

Enter the POLLI-BRICKS, which is made of 100% recycled PET polymer quarried from the waste stream. POLLI-BRICKS significantly reduces the cost of constructing interiors and exteriors of buildings. Once these buildings are completed, operating costs drop dramatically. The result of its inherent thermal insulation leads to reduced heating and cooling costs. It reduces grid electricity due to its daytime translucence, night-time embedded LED lights and integrated solar power.

As an exterior curtain wall system, POLLI-BRICKS is beautiful, easy to work with, highly functional and low in cost. POLLI-BRICKS is also highly attractive as an interior wall or ceiling system. It’s light weight, attractive styling, low cost and inherent sound buffering qualities make it a perfect recycled solution.

POLLI-BRICKS structures are flame retardant and do not degrade in sunlight. They inspire through beauty. As POLLI-BRICKS can be manufactured on-site, the carbon intensive practice of shipping many building materials across the world becomes close to unnecessary.

POLLI-BRICKS is strong. It is self structuring. It does not require toxic adhesive materials in construction. It is very durable.

ALL-Around Advantages

  • Low Carbon Footprint: Made of non-toxic, post consumer recycled PET polymer and requiring little energy for production; also recyclable after service life.
  • Super Strong But Lightweight:  Resists over 3300 Pa of destructive lateral wind loading with only 1/5 of the material weight of conventional curtain wall systems.
  • Stylish Design: Attractive architectural feature that provides uniform natural lighting.
  • Highly Insulated: over 260 liters of pure, clean, non-toxic air-pocket insulation per sq.M , High R value, Low energy transfer rate @ 1.5W/m2K. Thermal properties are further enhanced during manufacture via patented processes.
  • Integrated SOLAR+LED: All-in-one green energy lighting solution continues to reduce the structure’s carbon footprint over time.
  • Seamless Interlocking: Inspired by the hexagonal structures of beehives and modern building structure shear bolt system. Modular 3-D honeycomb cells that structurally interlock into seamless building façades for further improved insulation. Resins, which are often toxic, are not necessary in installation.
  • Durable + Fire Proof: Re-compounded with UV protection and anti-static PC hard coat integrated with fire-proof substrates.
  • Manufacturing On-Site: Portable manufacturing facility using locally collected recycled PET polymer eliminates most transportation costs for construction materials.

POLLI-BRICKS play a significant role in stemming the growth in carbon emissions. It takes minimal energy to manufacture and does not produce additional toxic elements during the recycling and production process. Moreover, various biological studies on plastics have suggested that they adversely affect a variety of species’ reproductive capabilities, suggesting great benefit from removing it from our ecosystem and ‘sequestering’ it in plain sight.
