        abstract = {The present investigation aims at manufacturing floor tiles using waste plastic in different proportions with sand, without use of cement and comparing it with the normal cement tiles. To evaluate different physical and mechanical properties, tests like water absorption test, transverse resistance, resistance to impact and abrasion resistance tests were carried out as per IS specifications on the plastic tile and these test results were compared with the normal cement tiles. These results obtained have shown better results as compared to the normal cement tiles. As per this study it can be considered to use plastic waste as a binding material instead of cement in the manufacture of floor tiles. Now a days most of the plastic is wasted and thrown in garbage which causes lot of pollution to environment, to reduce this we can reuse plastic waste as colourful floor tiles},
