Identification and Piloting of Alternative Constructions Mateiral in Sindh (Goodbricks)

Contributing IUCN constituents:Health and Nutrition Development Society

Project Details

NameIdentification and Piloting of Alternative Constructions Mateiral in Sindh (Goodbricks)
DescriptionThe SPHF project aims to construct 2.1 million houses, requiring 30 billion bricks. To reduce carbon emissions typically associated with brick production, SPHF has introduced a zero-emission solution using advanced Korean technology. In collaboration with HANDS, the project will pilot the production of 50,000 eco-friendly bricks in District Hyderabad and build 10 houses in District Thatta. The goal is to provide the construction industry with sustainable alternatives that significantly reduce environmental impact.
