MIT engineers have used 3D printing to create reusable glass bricks that withstand as much pressure as concrete blocks. What if construction materials could be put together, taken apart, and reused as ...

Using a 3D printer that works with molten glass, researchers forged LEGO-like glass bricks with a strength comparable to concrete. The bricks could have a role in circular construction in which ...

Engineers developed a new kind of reconfigurable masonry made from 3D-printed, recycled glass. The bricks could be reused many times over in building facades and internal walls. What if construction ...

Lego is forgoing one of its oil-free recycled plastic block prototypes after testing showed the material didn't cut down on carbon emissions. However, the toymaker isn't ditching the effort to make ...

Bricks made of discarded glass and recycling-waste ash have been shown to insulate better than regular bricks, while also requiring less energy to produce. And of course, they additionally use ...

Lego has abandoned plans to make its famous bricks from recycled plastic bottles, saying that the manufacturing process would be more polluting than the current production of oil-based bricks. Lego ...

Was it a coffee lover or hater who came up with this innovative idea? What if your morning coffee could help build the next generation of eco-friendly homes? That's exactly what researchers in ...

What if construction materials could be put together and taken apart as easily as LEGO bricks? Such reconfigurable masonry would be disassembled at the end of a building’s lifetime and reassembled ...

Lego has revealed a prototype brick made from recycled plastic bottles in the company's latest bid to become more sustainable. Churning out brightly coloured chunks of plastic to entertain children ...

Danish toymaker Lego says it has found the right fit for making its bricks with recycled plastic.Lego says its research has found a suitable green alternative to oil-based plastic. The company expects ...
