Cartoon: Fa-bricks

Malina Wong, Podcast Producer • February 3, 2021

As the amount of unwanted textiles multiply every year, people are finding more ways to repurpose it. One of the ways is turning textiles into bricks. These bricks are made by shredding fabric and combining it with eco-friendly glue. The mixture transforms into a brick when it is placed in a mold, mechanically pressed, and let out to dry. Building with these bricks could range from a shelf, to a chair, to a wall. (Malina Wong)
