After its usage it is a hazardous material. Plastic is a new engineering material in which researchers take more interest to invest their time and money because it has a wide scope to enhance the usage of plastic in different work. The wastes plastic in household is large and increases with time. It can be considered to use plastic waste as a binding material instead of cement in manufacture of floor tiles. To develop the durable tiles by use of plastic waste. The tiles will be tested for its durability, water absorption, compressive strength, abrasion, etc. and compared with the standard values of IS standards.
