How we keep costs down

Low-cost housing without low standards

Ipile Earth Synergy makes housing affordable by changing how homes are built. Using Compressed Earth Bricks reduces the cost of housing by 30–40% of the total walling cost per unit, without reducing the quality of the finished home.

  • 01

    Lower walling cost

    Compressed Earth Brick saves between 30 and 40% of the total walling cost per unit.

  • 02

    Local materials

    Bricks are made from laterite, a locally available resource, which keeps shipping costs down.

  • 03

    Less labour and mortar

    Uniform blocks simplify construction and reduce or remove the need for mortar.

  • 04

    Faster delivery

    CEB supports high-speed delivery, usually within 6 weeks, so projects carry less time on site.
