Recycled CD Cases
Most CD cases, especially the jewel case CD cases, are made of polyvinyl chloride, or PVC. When PVC is used for making CD cases, it releases toxins into the atmosphere that are dangerous for the environment and human beings. PVC is a non-biodegradable substance. This is to say that these substances linger in the atmosphere and the soil for thousands of years, making it impossible for anything to grow there and thus rendering the soil infertile.
Also when a plastic CD case is burnt, it releases dioxins that are toxic carcinogenic agents. One of the best ways to protect one’s planet while also protecting one’s CDs is to buy recycled CD cases.
There are companies that make and pack their CDs in special recycled CD cases. There are also many companies that provide CD cases with 100% recycled and reused plastic jewel cases. This is the most eco-friendly case for protecting and packaging one’s CDs and DVDs. There are also many companies that make cardboard CD cases. But even some of these cases have a PVC tray to hold the CDs.
A better idea would be for people to recycle the CD cases themselves. Instead of throwing away the jewel CD cases, one can reuse them to store their CDs and DVDs. Often, for CDs that have to be kept and preserved, one can obtain spindles. One can also use the paper covers that are available on the market. This will not only reduce the production of new CD cases but also protect the environment in the long run.
One must remember that many of the damages we are doing to Mother Nature are nonreversible. Hence, each one of us should contribute in our own way to protect the environment that we live in. Recycling CD cases is just one of the ways of doing so.

Recycled CD Cases
Have you ever thought if there can be any other use of CD cases? What you see above is actually an example of it. The Shanghai Corporate Pavilion which is under construction is being built from recycled CD cases!
CD cases recycled to erect Solar
Atelier Feichang Jianzhu is the brain behind the Shanghai Corporate Pavilion but what was more impressing were the thousands of plastic tubes that were made entirely from CD cases.
