1. Environmental max! Fillers such as sand and plant fibres are added to the soil to control the thickness of the panels and ensure strength. Non-toxic and non-polluting, recycled and handed over to a professional factory for secondary production.
Easy and quick to install, greatly shortens the construction period, saves the budget and reduces the worries of designers and renovation teams, killing two birds with one stone!
Good design and good materials will definitely surpass time. The revival of rammed earth has become a recognised new favourite in design circles, with African designers using the soil winning this year's award (given by the NO.1 Pritzker Prize in architecture). There are bound to be more and more great examples of rammed earth.
With the addition of the process, rammed earth panels are water and moisture resistant, heat and fire resistant, UV resistant and age resistant. The designer is relieved of the need to worry about water and moisture in the original soil and can use it in a wide range of designs.
