About this project

The Programme of Activities (PoA) aims to introduce, manufacture and sell stabilised soil (DURABRIC) bricks as replacement for traditional clay bricks which are fired using non-renewable biomass in Sub-Saharan Africa. DURABRIC bricks are compressed soil stabilized blocks made of local earth, sand, cement and water, and do not require firing. The PoA will not only improve the quality of building materials but will also reduce greenhouse gas emissions and deforestation associated with brick making. The first voluntary project activity (VPA) under the PoA will be in Malawi.
