The Garut Regency Government, together with the Bakti Barito\nFoundation, has constructed two new classrooms and toilet facilities at\nSDN 3 Sukanegla, located in Sukanegla, Garut Kota District, using\nrecycled plastic bricks. This development is the first in Garut Regency\nto utilise environmentally friendly materials for educational\ninfrastructure.<\/p>\n
The Regent of Garut, Abdusy Syakur Amin, stated that the construction\nof new facilities at SDN 3 Sukanegla is the result of a collaboration\nbetween the local government and the Bakti Barito Foundation to promote\ndevelopment based on a circular and sustainable economy.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe construction of new facilities at SDN 3 Sukanegla received\nsupport from the Bakti Barito Foundation, and we appreciate this\ncollaboration. The concept of development based on a circular economy\naligns with the vision of the Garut Regency Government in promoting\nsustainable development, particularly in the field of education,\u201d said\nAbdusy Syakur Amin on Thursday (11\/06\/2026).<\/p>\n
According to him, the new classrooms were built using wall panels\nmade from plastic waste that has been recycled through modern processes.\nThis innovation is expected not only to improve the quality of\neducational facilities but also to serve as an educational medium for\nthe community regarding the importance of waste management.<\/p>\n
\u201cI hope the breakthrough initiated by the Bakti Barito Foundation\nwill have a significant impact on education and serve as a real example\nfor the people of Garut regarding the importance of waste management and\nenvironmental preservation. I hope such cooperation can be applied in\nmore locations,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
The Executive Director of the Bakti Barito Foundation, Fifi Pangestu,\nexplained that the construction of SDN 3 Sukanegla carries a strong\nmission to support environmental preservation by utilising residual\nplastic waste, which is typically difficult to process using\nconventional methods.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe SDN 3 Sukanegla building utilises materials from recycled\nresidual plastic waste, which is the type of waste that generally\naccumulates in landfills because it is difficult to recycle. Almost all\nbuilding components, from wall panels replacing conventional bricks to\nceilings and water piping systems, use recycled materials,\u201d said\nFifi.<\/p>\n
She added that the project proves that waste, which has long been\nconsidered worthless, can be processed into useful construction\nmaterials while providing a solution to reduce waste accumulation.<\/p>\n
\u201cUtilising residual waste is part of the solution to reduce waste\nvolume while providing better infrastructure and educational facilities\nfor future generations,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
The construction of SDN 3 Sukanegla is expected to serve as a model\nfor implementing the circular economy concept in the education sector\nand to encourage the use of eco-friendly materials in the construction\nof public facilities. In addition to supporting the improvement of\nlearning facilities, this innovation is also expected to increase public\nawareness of the importance of waste management and sustainable\nenvironmental preservation.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/garut-regency-builds-school-using-recycled-plastic-bricks-1781196647", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
