Unutilized hazardous and toxic waste requires management and landfill costs. Hazardous and toxic paint waste can be used as additional raw material to make brick products through solidification. Concrete bricks are made from a mixture of cement (1 part) and sand (14 parts) with the addition of water for mixing purpose. The mixture composition is 0,1,2,4,6, and 8% by using paint waste as the raw material added. Then, the quality of concrete brick products is tested on compressive strength and water permeability. The test results can be used as recommendations for the use of paint waste into products and reduce waste management costs.
