RIASSUNTO

Nature has a lot to offer to people. Source of food and income are just few. Waste from natural sources of food is abundant in coastal areas where the source of living is fishing. The study is focused on utilizing food waste from Cerastoderma edule commonly known in the Philippines as Litob and river sand as additives in making recycled (high density polyethylene) HDPE composite plastic tiles. The researchers prepared the materials according to the set conditions. Composite plastic tiles made of remoulded HDPE plastic, river sand and Cerastoderma edule shells were fabricated in five different proportions. It was found out that the composite plastic tile with 40:30:30 ratio by mass inhibits the best characteristics in terms of average density, thermal resistance, and impact strength. The study shows that we can be able to make useful building materials such composite plastic tile from shells, river sand and HDPE plastic.
