An ambient temperature, dry blend for forming a thermoplastic composite is disclosed including a quantity of expanded thermoplastic pieces and a quantity of filler particles suspended by the pieces, with the quantity being up to 60% by weight of the blend. Also disclosed is a method of making a thermoplastic composite including dry mixing at ambient temperature a quantity of filler particles with a quantity of expanded thermoplastic pieces to form a blend. The method also includes forming the blend into a thermoplastic composite. Also disclosed is a thermoplastic composite formed by compressing heated compressing and dispensing an ambient temperature blend of thermoplastic pieces and filler particles. Finally, apparatus is disclosed for making a reinforced thermoplastic composite from a dry blend of expanded thermoplastic pieces and filler particles.
