Description:
We achieved an important technical breakthrough applicable to the serious international housing shortage. By applying the advanced "monocoque" concept, which is being used so successfully in the aircraft industry but never before in housing, to basic housing structures using abundantly available inexpensive agricultural waste as the raw material, the company has created superior structures that are more resistant to hurricanes, earthquakes and fire than all conventional methods of building. These homes offer the badly needed solution to the many serious problems that currently limit the availability of safe and affordable housing worldwide.
