Concerned about the damage that the waste produced by the polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and its serious impact on the environment, youth polytechnics and Evangelina Cisneros Guadalupe Díaz Araceli Martinez Carmona, graduates of the Center for Science and Technology Studies (CECYTA-11) "Wilfrido Massieu", created the Bio-Constr green company, which will use waste PET bottles to make partition walls.
"The climatic consequences we are suffering not lie. It is absolutely necessary to develop new technologies that will improve our quality of life and our idea is to make use of the waste produced by the PET to build prefabricated building products. "
The main product introduction is called Bio Practimuro Constr, a prefabricated panel made from PET waste for use in construction and boundary wall, which has thermal and acoustic properties, which by their nature or application does not require finishing.
Most walls are constructed with regular opaque, but this wall in particular allows the optimization of electric power, taking advantage of natural lighting. "As it is a translucent material allows light to pass without much problem."
The basic idea of \u200b\u200bthe company is collecting the waste material, cleaning and crushing. With the flakes are made with resin mixture to form a wall of high durability, which by the nature of PET does not deteriorate time. 
"The process is operated in cold weather, because many times and try to recycle PET by heating produces more pollutants even want to eliminate any toxic gas when you add a catalyst drying, so we suppress this phase and let the panel dry. "
The business plan has two years of starting and this wall with standard dimensions of 2.40 by 1.20 meters is the first product that has been created, but there is a wide view, so that the polytechnic students not rule out the possibility of initiating incubation process and make improvements. "The process is operated in cold weather, because many times and try to recycle PET by heating produces more pollutants even want to eliminate any toxic gas when you add a catalyst drying, so we suppress this phase and let the panel dry. " "We started with a long process and we still lack of knowledge to improve our product, but we will continue with the improvements, the implementation of materials and innovation, so that we can make the panels by one hundred percent organic processes.
