What are Earth Blocks?
Earthen Interlocking Blocks are new type of superior building materials made from compressing
the right mix of soil with 10% cement. Earth Blocks are also referred to as Compressed Stabilized
Earth Blocks (CSEB) or Compressed Earth Blocks (CEB) or Compressed Soil Mud Blocks
(CSMB). Earth Blocks are stabilized with Cement.
Why Choose Earth Blocks
Strong & Durable
CSEBs produced by us are high-quality reliable building materials and far exceed the strength
requirements as mandated by the Indian Standards. Earth Blocks are far supercilious in standard &
strength than locally made country fired bricks.
Sustainable
Embodied energy and carbon emissions of Earth Blocks are lesser by 10 and 12 times, when
compared with country fired bricks. The energy efficiency of homes with Earth Blocks reduces the
overall environmental impact after construction also
Healthy
Earth Blocks are one of the few building materials which do not emit toxic gases. Relative humidity
levels in Earthen buildings increase indoor air quality. This regulation of humidity greatly increases
indoor air quality which is the cause of many common illnesses often attributed to the change in
seasons.
Zero Waste
Once a home made from compressed earth blocks needs to be torn down after a lifetime of use, the
walls' materials will reintegrate into the earth from where they came, drastically reducing amount of
construction waste. In this context, earthen blocks can be considered a cradle-to-cradle product.
Traditional
Soil is the abundantly available and oldest building material known to man. Humans have been
living in Earthen Dwellings since the beginning of time. Earth Blocks reinforce this traditional
building material by engineering them for modern times
Aesthetic
A house built with Earth Blocks looks elegant, is structurally strong & aesthetically appealing
Costs less to build and maintain
Building with compressed earth blocks is not only eco-friendly but also costs less to build &
maintain in the long run.
Thermal Mass
Earth Blocks walls will bring a large amount of thermal mas , which can be used for passive solar
heating to help regulate your home's internal temperature and reduce your heating and cooling
loads. Also, due to the large proportion of clay and soil used in these bricks, the walls will naturally
“breathe,” thus regulating indoor humidity levels and improving the overall indoor air quality.
CSEB - Benefits
Creates superior indoor environments
Earth Block structures can use up to 20 to 30% less energy to heat and cool than
concrete block structures.
Dirt is a renewable resource that is plentiful.
Earth Blocks take very little energy to make compared to the extreme heat necessary
to make cement based blocks & the firing process required to make clay bricks.
Earth Block walls are sound proof, fire proof, bug proof, and mold proof.
Since the blocks are made from natural materials they do not out-gas any toxic
chemicals like most conventional building components.
Long lasting, Earthen homes have been around for thousands of years. Earth Blocks
will stand the test of time.
The overall cost of construction comes down, as there is no plastering and painting
required.
Also the time required to construct a building is reduced, hereby reducing the labour
cost. (This can be an added advantage to the Relators, Engineers and Architects) .
