About

High-performance environmentally friendly bamboo based construction material

The construction industry is having a devastating impact on the environment and current post-disaster shelter provision is inadequate

Bamboo as a construction material is lighter than steel or concrete but equally strong and a better insulator. With access to new and energy saving technology this innovation supports green construction, delivering a zero carbon and zero waste solution to the built environment. Its flexibility also ensures versatile and quick applications. Bambuild also educates the local community via a na-tional bamboo community training centre.
