Marble recycled plastics can be cut, designed, and crafted into a variety of new products for the building material and furniture-making industries.
Marble Plastics works with a variety of post-consumer and post-industrial recycled plastic suppliers around the midwest United States to produce high quality recycled plastic sheet goods.
