Plastic Tile

Plastic Tile is a buildable building associated with Plastic. It is a tile-type construction piece, placing it in the same broad family of base-building materials used for colonies that have already reached Plastic production.

Because Plastic is an advanced manufactured material, Plastic Tile belongs to the later stages of colony development rather than early survival. Plastic itself is produced by the Polymer Press from Petroleum, and Glossy Dreckos can also grow Plastic scale in Hydrogen atmosphere. As with other Plastic-made structures, it is part of the set of useful and decorative items that become available once a colony has a reliable Plastic supply.

Plastic is also notable for its high radiation absorption rate of 85%, which ties it for first place with Lead and Depleted Uranium among buildable radiation absorbers. In rocket play, the Orbital Data Collection Lab can convert Plastic into Data Banks, at a rate of 5 kg Plastic per 1 Data Bank when Duplicants operate it during rocket flight.

A tooltip line describes Plastic as antiseptic, but that has no in-game effect.
