The province hasbuilt 40 construction waste disposal plants, with an actual annual treatmentcapacity of only more than 16 million tons, of which very few resources areconverted into renewable building materials.


The concept takes reborn as the design theme, and considers theuse of materials and carbon footprint, using abandoned building materials andagricultural production residues as the main decoration materials, so that thematerials can be reborn and give the opportunityfor a second life.
