| Summary: | Plastics are a relatively inexpensive, flexible, and durable material that can be easily molded into a number of shapes and sizes for a wide variety of purposes. As a result, plastic production has increased dramatically during the last 60 years. Plastic trash is a problem that affects everyone, whether on a worldwide scale or in Malaysia, with a particular emphasis on Sabah. On those topics, our research aims to assist in resolving the issue of plastic waste reduction. The purpose of this research is to evaluate fabricate HDPE plastic waste into Eco-plastic furniture. Following that, this research will conduct laboratory tests on the Eco-plastic sample to determine its engineering properties such as tensile strength test, flexural test, and water absorption test. Each lab test requires at least five samples to be tested. The final step is to conduct a questionnaire survey to ascertain the respondent user's perspective on the Eco- plastic furniture product. Thus, at the conclusion of the research, it will be possible to determine whether the Eco-plastic furniture met the requirements, particularly in the laboratory test, and how the product was received by the participant user. |
