Impact

The worldwide trend in reducing the impact on the environment, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and reducing the depletion of natural resources has instigated further product development in the area of Non Cement Structures that rival the strength of Cement but completely sustainable.

The removal of cement from the current cementitious product removes the material which has the highest contribution in respect of embodied energy and CO2 emissions.

No Cement: Bricks and Adobe “Plaster”

I wish they had exposed the mud bricks and adobe and give a more natural look.

Internal Cladding of Tiled Roof

This was exciting to see a similar thinking to ChloroEarth Composites.

Compressed from Coir and using a Cardanol Resin, The roof is completely waterproof and impervious to termites and insects.

Importantly, it does not conduct external heat to the interior of the house.
