Purpose: of this paper is to develop a new generation of polymer composite materials that would ensure the use of residual and serious environmental problems of polyester-glass laminate waste. Design/methodology/approach: The glass reinforced polyester waste was ground and added to produce new composites. Thermoplastic - high impact polystyrene was selected for the composite matrix. Composites containing 10, 20, 30% by weight of the filler of polyester-glass laminate powder were made. The process of extrusion and subsequent injection was used to prepare the test samples. The influence of the filler on selected properties of composites was evaluated. The physical properties of the filler as well as the processing properties of the mixture as well as the mechanical properties - impact strength and tensile strength of the obtained composites were investigated. Findings: A decrease in tensile strength and impact strength was observed along with an increase in the amount of filler. Research limitations/implications: It would be interesting to carry out further analyzes, in particular with a higher volume fraction of the filler or with a different composite structure, e.g. using PVC as a matrix. The developed research topic is a good material for the preparation of publications of a practical and scientific nature, especially useful in the research and industrial environment. Practical implications: The shredded glass-polyester waste can be used as a filler of polystyrene, however, the resulting composite could be used to produce parts with slightly less responsible functions such as artificial jewelery or toy elements. Originality/value: Obtained results are a new solution a global waste management solution for glass reinforced polyester waste, which may contribute to the sustainable development of the composite materials industry through the partial utilization of waste composites with a duroplastic matrix.
