Detailed Overview

Understanding the Challenge

The global housing crisis is staggering: 1 billion people worldwide need affordable and adequate housing today. In Africa, south of the Sahara, there is a current need for 160 million homes, forecasted to reach 360 million by 2050. This represents one of humanity's greatest challenges.

By producing OTHALO™ affordable housing, we're industrializing housing production at a scale that can actually make a meaningful difference. Our approach transforms this crisis into an opportunity by utilizing local plastic waste as the primary raw material for construction.

We produce houses on a massive scale, converting plastic waste materials into building components through our patented upcycling technology. This creates a comprehensive value chain that generates employment from waste collection and processing to production, house fitting, plumbing, electrical work, and project management.

Our housing solutions are incredibly versatile - they can be deployed as detached single-family homes, small apartment buildings, or larger multi-unit structures. Each configuration maintains our commitment to sustainability, affordability, and rapid deployment while meeting local building standards and community needs.

The environmental impact is transformative: every home built diverts tons of plastic waste from landfills and oceans while providing safe, dignified housing. This dual-impact approach makes our solution both economically viable and environmentally essential.
