Abstract: Today, the wish to maintain and improve living conditions worldwide has led to a particular focus on ecology issues in all areas of activity, including construction. The research demonstrates that it is possible to solve major problems in the management of plastic waste materials by recycling, and to obtain new building materials. In this study, the optimal recipes for the manufacture of ecological mortars by PVC waste recycling were established. Mortars containing PVC waste have the advantage that their production is less polluting, as it does not involve high energy consumption. The study presented in this paper is finalized with the development of new building materials.
