FIELD: articles, methods and devices for manufacture of articles, methods and devices for manufacture of articles, including containers and packing materials, of hydraulically solidifying and inorganic-filled materials. SUBSTANCE: suitable compounds are prepared by mixing together hydraulically solidifying binder or organic binder, water and respective additives such as fillers, fibre and substances modifying the rheological properties, which impart predetermined properties so that the articles made of them have desirable operating characteristics. The desirable article can be moulded of the mixture with the use of the most different moulding processes, including cavity moulding, injection moulding, blow moulding, jiggering, moulding of wet sheets and moulding of dry sheets. Sheet moulding processes need that at first the mixture would be moulded in the form of a sheet, for example, with the use of an extruder or rollers, then the sheet is moulded and solidified. Printing identification signs or coating may be superimposed on the article. EFFECT: manufacture of articles similar in their properties to paper, board, polystyrene, plastic or metals at employment of traditional equipment, prevented pollution of environment, reduced power consumption. 152 cl, 58 dwg, 238 ex
