Introducing RESIN8™

Advanced Recycled Content You Can Trust To Build Better  

RESIN8™ is a breakthrough lightweight material derived from hard-to-recycle plastics, so nothing goes to waste   

REAP - RECOVER, ENRICH, APPRECIATE & PROSPER

Introducing our Regenerative process called REAP

Regenerating environmental, economic & social value from the world’s plastic waste

RECOVER, ENRICH, APPRECIATE & PROSPER
RECOVER

We work to recover unwanted plastic in a variety of ways, including our own ‘The Bag that Builds™" plastic collection program with partners like UNDP & others.

APPRECIATE

We work with construction industry partners to improve the value and performance of structural and non-structural concrete applications.

ENRICH

Our innovative and patented process converts all types of plastic waste(resins 1-7) into a range of Eco-Aggregates marketed under the name RESIN8™.

PROSPER

We focus on delivering better economic, environmental, and societal outcomes for all.

the RESIN8™ solution  

Now Your Recycled Content Can Also Reduce Plastic Waste

RESIN8™ is a new category of recycled content technology — a lightweight synthetic hybrid mineral-polymer that looks and behaves like construction sand, but does much more for builders.

Concrete enriched with RESIN8™ can be lighter, stronger, more durable, and more energy efficient than standard mix designs. RESIN8™ in asphalt reduces road maintenance and extends pavement life.

The secret to that performance is recovered plastic.

Unlike virgin natural aggregates, RESIN8™ recycled content is manufactured almost entirely of mixed plastic polymers recovered from plastic waste that is difficult or impossible to recycle — waste that CRDC GLOBAL and partners divert from landfills and incinerators, intercept in polluted rivers, and collect on ocean beaches.

From waste, we build value — for people, for the planet, and for our partners in construction.

IN DEVELOPMENT for 2026

New RESIN8™ CORE captures and recycles carbon for additional climate impact

Launching in 2026

LEARN MORE

The latest product innovation from CRDC GLOBAL reacts RESIN8™ recycled content with cement flue gas, capturing planet-warming CO2e at the source.

Reaching Net Zero targets in the cement, concrete, and construction industries will take all hands on deck. We're doing our part by investing in RESIN8™ product innovations that do even more to lower the Global Warming Potential (GWP) of cement and concrete products.

Reacting RESIN8™ recycled content with cement-kiln emissions captures CO2e before it can escape to the atmosphere. Captured gases get stored in an ingenious lightweight coating of mineralized limestone on each RESIN8™ particle, forming new RESIN8™ CORE.

Commercial launch in 2026.

OUR patented PROCESS

We Convert The Waste — You REAP the Value

RESIN8™ is the exciting outcome of an advanced mechanical recycling technology invented in Costa Rica and perfected on four continents

Plenty of well-meaning companies compress plastic waste into materials used for building. But no one before CRDC Global has successfully engineered a recycled content technology from plastic that integrates seamlessly into all professional concrete and asphalt applications — with all of the performance that discerning professionals demand.

CONCRETE & ASPHALT APPLICATIONS

RESIN8™ performs in structural and architectural applications

Developed by and for the construction industry, RESIN8™ is the only recycled content building material deploying recovered plastic polymers to enrich concrete across a broad range of structural and architectural applications, and to improve the performance of asphalt.  

Concrete products enriched with RESIN8™ recycled content meet and exceed international ASTM standards and required country specifications.
