A Budapest-based firm called Makropa has found an innovative solution to landfill overflow by mixing hard-to-recycle waste into lightweight concrete for roads, buildings, and insulation. By repurposing thousands of tons of material annually that would otherwise be incinerated or buried, the company is helping reduce waste while creating practical construction materials.
