How to live our present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs?

Join us for a discussion where founders of Rebricks Indonesia and Landscape Indonesia will share why and how they could recycle food packaging into paving bricks, or how they process recycled plastics to become fuel and power fishing boats.

After graduating from Atmajaya Catholic University, Ovy started her career working in her family business: manufacturing concrete blocks. Her family’s business has over three decades experience in building blocks. Under the tutelage of her father, she absorbed his wisdom regarding the manufacturing and distribution of concrete blocks.

A concerned environmentalist, Ovy takes exception to Jakarta’s plastic waste problem. In additional to personal decisions geared toward less waste, she ahs the vision to make construction material from waste. In early 2018 she met her partner Novita and an idea was born: recycling plastic into bricks. With their shared knowledge and resources, Novita and Ovy started their journey of making recycled bricks.
