Two Canadian builders turned 612,000 plastic bottles into 2,000-sq-ft home in Nova Scotia; its panels were so strong they withstood sustained winds of 326 mph, twice the strength of Category 5 hurricane

Canadian builders transformed more than 600,000 plastic bottles into a house. The recycled PET was processed into foam and used to make structural composite panels. These panels demonstrated remarkable strength during wind-testing simulations. The project explored the potential of recycled plastic for various construction applications, offering an innovative approach to both waste management and sustainable building.
