- Plastic bottles are often seen as a waste and end up in dump sites and nothing good can come out of them.
But could you live in a house made of plastic bottles?
Well in northern Nigeria, a local organisation has decided to defy the odds by building house from plastic wastes.
But why did they come up with the project?
"We thought of one way of getting rid of this is to recycle them and on the other side you can see that we have a lot of housing problems, more than half of our masses don't ha…

Great idea, makes use of these bottles on a big scale . Builds cheap much needed homes . ❤ this
This is a very good idea I hope it works for them nobody deserves to be homeless
Plastic also is useful material for crafting purposes and resists water. 😉
Wow amazing people they are creative and genius ideas
Help the environment clean
I am so impressesed. We need more of this especially for Nogerians.
Yes!! I would live in a bottle house if we’re built by this company . This idea has been around for many years in Nigeria’. Some Americans are now wanting to start building them.
Thank you for sharing
🙏🏿💙🙏🏿🙌🏾
I am proud of you as a human, keep up with the good works, sincerely God.
Wtf is this 💀😭
You can gain a small section of flat plastic cutting from a bottle. Using this, or any sheet of plastic, you could 'nail' or 'tack' or attach the plastic to the caps of the bottles to make a water resistant surface. Doing this on the outside could greatly increase the buildings lifespan.
Recycling is best option
Brilliant and so wise
Let's use all the plastic bottles in the great garbage patch in the Pacific for this.
Instead of the bottles and end up in the ocean and landfill
this is a good solution
how many years can such construction last ?
Planet Rocker, Considering plastic can take a thousand years to decompose, probably a long time.
The Plastic will last but the structure wont unless the plastic is mixed with the sand.
Great idea.
I want to build this house what can it cost for 3 bedroom bungalow
I wonder how this fares against earthquakes though???
I need contact of someone that can build this. Urgently needed
No side effects? Nice initiative.
Great question🤔 I wonder if there are any health concerns living in bottle home
Trust me they do not care about side effects. They care about hunger and having shelter.
@@majormediaproductions there has to be some side effects but I suspect it may be very minimal or miniscule
@@sabi8381 I know but still if you have bad health you'll sell your house and food to be treated back to full health so you can work towards getting those things back, without health those things can not be fully appreciated
@@Biobele Ye, absolutely without health we can't function. I just hope things work out for them. 💔
Did u use cement Or mud to grab the bottle
Parabéns 🇧🇷
والله انهم مساكين الله يعينهم
Where can i learn to do this
What about the chemicals that maybe inhale from the bottles????????????
Wouldn’t we see those affects in human consumption first, they are bottles we drink from…otherwise they should be safe for construction
I need contact of builders
This is highly underwhelming. Ghana is melting this plastic mixing it with sand and turning it into bricks. You wouldn't even know it is plastic and it is very cheap. This is shameful. Glorified mud house.
Actually this method is more environmentally friendly. When you melt plastic, toxic fumes are released. The only way to avoid that is by a very, very low temperature melt. Even so, toxic fumes are released.
Great job, please protect yourself by using nose masks
