Shell has partnered with Green Antz Builders in the Philippines to build a petrol station using eco-bricks made from upcycled plastic waste.
The service station at Bulacan is the first commercial building in the Philippines that is completely made from eco-bricks, and the first globally for the Anglo-Dutch supermajor.
The station was constructed using 26,512 eco-bricks supplied by Green Antz and made from 1200 kilograms of upcycled plastic waste, which is equivalent to 80,000 lubricant bottles.
