The increasing accumulation of plastic waste poses significant environmental challenges, necessitating innovative solutions for waste management and resource recovery. This research paper explores the potential of converting plastic waste into artificial grass, a sustainable alternative to traditional turf. The study investigates the properties of various types of plastic waste, including polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polypropylene (PP), and their suitability for producing artificial grass fibers. Through a series of experiments, the mechanical and aesthetic properties of the resulting artificial grass are evaluated, alongside an assessment of its environmental impact. The findings indicate that utilizing plastic waste for artificial grass production not only mitigates waste but also provides a viable solution for sustainable landscaping, contributing to a circular economy.
