💨 Abstract

SA Rugby, in partnership with CRDC SA, built 15 housing units in 2024 using plastic waste collected from three events. This initiative has created over 79 jobs, and has been recognized with international awards for its sustainable approach to housing and waste management. The project, called "Bag That Builds," utilizes plastic waste to create eco-aggregate RESIN8, which is used to manufacture concrete bricks and blocks for housing construction.
