YNot Manufacturing

YNot Manufacturing is a start-up, focused on finding innovative solutions to assist in the climate change and housing shortage faced by South Africa. We do this through the manufacturing of low cost bricks and roof tiles from plastic waste. We employ a combination of recycled concrete rubble and granulated plastic waste to produce a strong and more durable building material. We believe this would assist the government in combating the amount of plastic that ends up in landfills and beaches, also this would assist the government in the housing shortage through the provision of cheaper building material. We are also looking in the development of 100% plastic brick that is fire proof, we believe this would be a better and safer material for building shacks and would assist in the eradication of shacks.
