First EnviroCrete Bio-Climatic House in South Africa

Envirocrete Pty Ltd’s ultimate goal is to deliver ecological, scalable and sustainable housing solutions within South Africa, throughout the African continent, as well as to other developing countries,  world-wide.

Our COMPANY

“A bridge across industries”

Envirocrete Pty Ltd was established in 2015, by founding members, Roberto Pane (technology) Shaiek Coe (business development) and Zuleigha Abderoef (human resources). The company’s shareholding is 100% female owned, with a BBEEE level 1 rating.

The company’s legacy dates back to 1982, at which time Envirocrete Raw® was first introduced to the European construction market, to produce highway acoustic barriers for the Italian French Alps, spanning 30 km. From 1992, Envirocrete’s innovative wood-concrete technology, was employed to produce ecological houses in Italy, the South of France and North Africa.

Circular green economy Wood chip recycling precast

EnviroCrete’s Construction System is destined to profoundly impact how conventional construction industries operate, making future large scale ecological housing developments a reality, in line with the G20 climate change action group objectives.

Envirocrete’s key contribution to ecological requirements, is situated in the Envirocrete Mix – an innovative variant of a concrete mix made up through a combination of Portland cement and treated woodchips

This creates a UNIQUE straight forward synergy and circular economy  between 3 industrial sectors. Concrete Pre-Fabrication – Waste Collection and Recycling   – Timber & Saw Milling.

We introduce a truly sustainable PRECAST GREEN BUILDING TECHNOLOGY that is fully compatible & synergic with all existing industrial processes and building technologies.
