Innovation

Revolutionize the Way of Recycle

Plastics

POLLI-Brick™ is a revolutionary building material

made from 100% rec ycled Polyethylene
Terephthalate Polymer. It is translucent,
naturally insulated, and durable. The modular
3-D honeycomb self-interlocking structure
makes it extremely strong without any chemical
adhesives, while weighing only one-fifth of
standard curtain wall systems. The cross-
industry R&D hybridization keeps the recycling
process economically efficient since POLLI-
Brick™ can be mass manufactured on site,
dramatically reducing the carbon footprint
when compared with conventional glass and
steel structures.

Distinctive Features
POLLI-Brick™ Life cycle Made from Recycled Materials
– Made of non-toxic, post-consumer recycled
PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate Polymer)
– Minimal energy consumption during the
production process.

Reusable and Recyclable

– No cohesives used.
– Easily reusable.
Assemble
– Fully recyclable after serviced life.

Modularize Non-Toxic
Remould – No chemical binders used in recycling and re-
recycling processes.
– Meets requirements on Indoor Air Quality
(IAQ).

Low-VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds)

– All materials used for indoor cladding release
no harmful quantities of VOC

Construction on Site
Recycle
Build – PET is locally sourced.
– Blow-molded into POLLI-Brick™ on or close to
construction site.
– Reduces transportation of building materials.
– POLLI-Brick™ are assembled into handy
modules that can easily be mounted reducing
construction time.
Modularization and Customization

With unique honeycomb shape interlocking

units, POLLI-Brick™ can be assembled into
rectangular panels or any customized shape.
It can be tailored to either a simple modular,
quick to install, affordable cladding system or a
state-of- the-art interactive color LED integrated
animated building skin system. Futhermore,
the system sustains radical lateral force up to
Category 5 hurricanes, without any damage or
water seepage.

The performance enhanced films enforce

the panel strength while providing extra
protection against UV, water and fire. The PC
coating makes the POLLI-Brick™ panel scratch-
resistant and easy to clean. POLLI-Brick™ can
further enhance its environmental durability
with biaxial-oriented metallized film to give the
building facade and roofing a semi-translucent
aluminum finish with unbeatably low carbon
footprint.

Advantages

Super Strong
A POLLI-Brick™ panel can bear up to 3,300
Pascal of destructive lateral wind force with only
one-fifth of the material weight of the standard
curtain wall system.

Ultra-light
Not only does the POLLI-Brick™ reduce energy
consumption in both transportation and
construction phases, but the dead load itself
reflects cost saving potential within the building
structure.

Air-insulated
Energy consumption reduced upon cooling/
heating in the operational phase has an R value
of 12. (The thermal resistance rate)

Translucency
Attractive architectural feature provides a
uniform natural lighting, and reduces the
energy consumption for the indoor illumination.
Curtain Wall Skin Types without Subframing at Preinstallation Level Simple Installation
POLLI-Brick™ is lightweight and self-interlocking
1400
12.5 which enables easy installation with little to no
12 technology compared to conventional curtain
1200 wall systems.

1000 Optional LED+ IT Integration

Interactive iPad or Android controlled lighting
systems that utilize every POLLI-Brick™ as a pixel
