Waste reborn.
Cities reinvented.
Zyleno turns municipal solid waste into a stable granular material, and that material into concrete masonry units.
Zyleno is a waste-to-materials company. We take the municipal solid waste a city throws away, turn it into Zyleno material, and turn that material into the concrete blocks the same city builds with.
Waste keeps coming. Landfill space keeps shrinking.
Household waste arrives every day, in every town, and most of it is still buried. There is another option: process it close to where it is collected and turn it into something the region can use.
From trash to wall, in two stages.
Waste never goes straight into a block. It first becomes Zyleno material: sanitized, inert and free of bacteria, a stable granular intermediate. Then Zyleno material becomes masonry.
Household trash, after recyclables are recovered.
Dried, sized and stabilized into a uniform granular material.
Formed and cured into standard blocks for construction.
