According to the information provided, the ecological blocks will be produced at Trivasa’s Xcitán plant in Valladolid, Yucatán, and will contain up to 5% of Resin8.

“We carried out several resistance and quality tests on the new blocks and the results were very satisfactory. This agreement will give us access to new markets and we are excited to continue on our path towards improving our environmental footprint,” said Jhosue Chávez Cortés, Trivasa’s Director of Business Development.

For the manager, taking advantage of plastic waste causes value to be generated for a new product, which helps protect the environment, so this production will serve to build close to 50 houses of social interest in Quintana Roo and Tabasco.
