Abstract

Today, the use of wood raw materials is starting to increase dramatically, making wood supplies begin to decrease. To overcome this problem, an artificial board was made in the form of MDF (medium density fiberboard), blockboard, particleboard, and plywood (multiplex). The problem of waste in the furniture industry generally disrupts the space in the production space and the effort that is currently being made is simply by selling the waste directly. Trustic Interior initiated  the  use  of  furniture  waste  as  raw  material  for  derivative  products,  where  the  raw materials used were waste of plywood and High Pressure Laminate (HPL). The utilization of furniture waste made from plywood and HPL as raw material in Trustic Interior  is  done  by  classifying  it  in  various  categories  of  shapes  and  sizes  in  the  form  of dimensions of thickness, width and length. Waste that has almost the same dimensions is grouped together. Then the raw materials are processed into various derivative products such as fung- cube, children's puzzles, skateboards, and other creative toys. One of the derivative products in interior design from waste of plywood and HPL as raw materials is end table. End Table is one of the derivative products that uses small plywood and HPL waste with dimensions of 450 x 450 x 610 mm. With added value as a derivative product made from waste raw material, the end table generates revenues of Rp. 8.352,000 (3 products) - Rp. 12,840,000 (5 products).
