Our Ekoroof tile is made from recycled agricultural plastic that is normally used by farms to protect young crops from the strong sun and reduce water use.

If you think back to the last time you saw a field that was recently planted, you may have noticed long sheets of plastic covering a vast area of the field. These plastic sheets help to protect the young crops from extreme heat and sunlight, and also help to maintain the moisture content of the soil constant, as well as helping to keep pests out and minimize the use of pesticides.

Another application for this plastic is in the form of bags. Bags will commonly be placed around growing bunches of bananas. The fruit will grow inside the bag, achieving the same goals as the plastic sheets laid on the ground.

A great majority of the plastic used in agriculture is not reusable. The plastic sheets or bags are torn by the growing crops or during harvest.

We have developed a novel way to effectively process agricultural films in just a few, simple and integrated steps! The plastic is then mixed with several additives that make up our patented formula, and shaped in the form of classic Spanish Tile.
