The construction industry is increasingly exploring sustainable alternatives to traditional materials, and the use of plastic waste in wall construction has emerged as a promising solution. By purposing plastics such as PET bottles, plastic bricks, and recycled plastic composites, this method addresses environmental concerns while offering cost-effective and durable building solutions. Plastic-based walls provide several advantages, including lightweight properties, thermal insulation, moisture resistance, and improved durability. Innovative techniques, such as interlocking plastic bricks, plastic bottle walls, and composite panels, have been successfully implemented in eco-friendly construction projects worldwide. Despite these benefits, challenges such as structural strength, fire resistance, and long-term sustainability must be addressed through advanced engineering techniques and regulatory compliance. Large-scale adoption of plastic-based construction materials can significantly reduce plastic waste, lower construction costs, and promote green building practices. This study explores the methodologies, benefits, challenges, and future potential of using plastics in wall construction, emphasizing its role in sustainable development and environ- mental conservation. The construction industry is continuously evolving to integrate sustainability, energy efficiency, and user- centric designs. Plastic insulated walls represent a revolutionary advancement in building materials, offering thermal insulation, durability, and environmental benefits. By leveraging recycled and biodegradable plastics, these walls contribute to circular economies and reduce carbon footprints. Advanced thermal regulation technologies embedded within the insulation ensure optimal indoor temperatures, reducing energy consumption. Moreover, the humanized aspect focuses on acoustic comfort, aesthetics, and adaptability, creating spaces that promote well- being. Smart materials incorporated into the walls can adjust to environmental changes, improving air quality and minimizing allergens. Additionally, ergonomic considerations ensure ease of installation and modification, catering to evolving architectural needs. By integrating AI-driven smart sensors, these walls can dynamically adjust insulation properties, enhancing user experience. Fire resistance, impact durability, and moisture control are also optimized to ensure longevity and safety. This research highlights the potential of Plastic Insulated Walls as a next- generation building solution, balancing sustainability with human comfort and technological innovation. The future of construction lies in materials that not only perform efficiently but also enhance the quality of life for occupants. These walls integrate recycled and biodegradable plastics, reducing environmental pollution while providing superior insulation properties [2]. By leveraging advanced material engineering and AI-driven climate control, they ensure optimal thermal regulation, lowering energy consumption and enhancing indoor comfort [3]. One of the key aspects of Plastic Insulated Walls is their ability to adapt to diverse environmental conditions, making them ideal for both residential and commercial applications [4]. The inclusion of phase-change materials (PCMs) and aerogel-based insulation enables dynamic temperature regulation, significantly improving energy efficiency [5]. Additionally, acoustic insulation layers contribute to noise reduction, fostering a peaceful and productive indoor environment [6]. The humanized design approach ensures that these walls prioritize occupant well-being and usability, featuring modular adaptability, ergonomic installation, and aesthetic customization [7]. The incorporation of AI-powered smart sensors allows real- time monitoring of indoor conditions, promoting a healthier and more comfortable living space [8]. These innovations not only enhance user experience but also contribute to long-term cost savings and environmental sustainability [8]. By combining sustainability, technological advancement, and human-centric engineering, Plastic Insulated Walls emerge as a next-generation building material that bridges the gap between eco-friendly practices and modern architectural needs [8]. Their ability to deliver high performance, energy efficiency, and user comfort makes them a revolutionary step toward a greener and smarter built environment [8].
