produce new products without a significant reduction in
product quality. Four regrind ratios were used in this
study: 0%, 20%, 50% and 100%. The used products
were collected from different public places in Benghazi
city-Libya. The properties under investigation are: mass,
shrinkage, colour and solid density. The results
