Product description

Agrocrete® is a revolutionary carbon-negative building material that addresses the environmental impact of traditional construction materials and agricultural waste disposal. It is made from a blend of agricultural waste, including paddy straw and hemp hurds, combined with lime-based binders to create a sustainable alternative to fired clay bricks and cement blocks.

One of the key innovations of Agrocrete® is its ability to lock away atmospheric carbon while reusing crop residues that are typically burned in open fields, contributing to air pollution. This unique approach not only reduces the carbon footprint of the construction industry but also helps in tackling the issue of stubble burning, which is a major cause of air pollution in agricultural regions.

With strong compressive strength, excellent thermal insulation properties, and high resistance to fire, Agrocrete® is a versatile building material suitable for a wide range of residential and commercial construction projects. Its manufacturing process emits significantly fewer greenhouse gases compared to traditional bricks and concrete blocks, aligning with India's environmental goals and supporting sustainable development.

By creating new value chains for agricultural waste and providing an eco-friendly alternative to conventional building materials, Agrocrete® not only benefits the environment but also contributes to rural incomes and economic development. Through partnerships with contractors, architects, and government housing initiatives, Agrocrete® is driving India's transition to a low-carbon construction sector, promoting healthier indoor environments and enhancing climate resilience.
