The recycling of waste products and its further use for new products is of the utmost importance nowadays. The quantities of waste product originating from industries involving plastics, paper, wood, textile and metal foils, such as the related automotive, paper, wood and food industries, represent extremely large numbers, strongly indicating the need for efficient waste management. On the other side of things, companies are always looking for ways to lower material costs. The combination of different waste materials can be used for production of new composite materials. This paper will present a brief overview of existing possibilities in the development of new composites completely made of waste materials, as well as further research directions. A preliminary study of material combinations that can provide a composite aimed at load bearing applications is given, for the purpose of replacing elements such as wood blocks in transport pallets. Several combinations of waste material from... different industries were studied in a composite structure: paper, cardboard boxes, tetra-pak containers, expanded polystyrene (styrofoam), polyurethane (PU) foam, artificial leather, textile, wood chips and dust. Preliminary compressive tests were performed. The results indicated unsuitable combinations, but also some that provided a stable compact composite which endured high compressive loads. An important result is that such a composite can be made without adding any adhesives. Waste materials from different industries can be efficiently used for new composites, and further study of this is clearly needed.
