Unfortunately, it’s also one of the most environmentally problematic materials: it is non-biodegradable and can take hundreds of years to decompose.
But here’s the good news: instead of throwing it away, you can transform leftover telgopor into something practical, creative, or eco-friendly. With a little imagination, this “waste” can become a real treasure.
