This project reviews one of the sustainable and effective ways of managing plastic waste in urban and rural parts of India in order to minimize their adverse environmental impacts. The requirement for such a research is validated as it is desirable to change the unsustainable arrangement of consumption, production and disposal associated with these materials. After studying the whole scenario, I developed an effective way of utilizing the soft plastic waste and recycling it into plastic bricks which are very light in weight and can withstand high amount of pressure as compared to standard modular bricks. However due to some physical and chemical properties of plastic which can be disadvantageous to the brick created from it, some changes in its design and manufacturing processes can be made.
