The increase in the Earth's surface temperature due to climate change, attributed to human activities' pollution and the substantial amount of plastic waste resulting from a significant population increase, has led us to analyze improvement options regarding quality of life. Therefore, it was decided to evaluate the thermal properties of recycled material for use in a construction process in the Metropolitan Lima area. For this purpose, PET bottles have been chosen as the recycled material, and drywall construction as the construction process. The research study involves the execution of a drywall wall filled with recycled PET bottles, and by measuring temperatures, comparing it with a drywall wall filled with fiberglass and an empty drywall wall focused on thermal comfort. Additionally, to assess its carbon footprint and budget to determine its suitability as a construction option. During the evaluation process, the drywall wall filled with recycled PET bottles meets the maximum wall thermal transmittance according to Standard EM110, emits a lower amount of tCO2e compared to the other two prototypes, and the use of recycled PET bottles is 123% more economical than the use of fiberglass.
