Cute little mud houses always fascinated me. As a child I always dreamt of living in one. So, when I came across this machine by MecoConcept, I just couldn’t stop myself from sharing it with you. This latest invention by MecoConcept can make construction bricks using mud. Don’t mistake its tiny size for less power. This small beast can produce as many as 120 solid construction bricks an hour. Is there something more you can ask for?
Mud houses are one of the most natural habitats we have ever had. They have their own special beauty to them. So, this machine here definitely targets the eco-conscious. The green credentials do not end here. This cool machine is powered by solar energy. Similar to Lego Blocks in design, these mud bricks can be built in no time. Besides, they also insulate exceptionally well. To give it little strength so that it doesn’t gets washed away in the rain, MecoConcept have added cement in small quantity. Such small amount of cement will not harm the environment.
This eco-friendly gadget has been designed specially to help in making temporary homes in disaster-stricken areas quickly. This machine will quickly help in building small, safe shelters for the until their house can be fixed or they can move into another house. In ancient times, many houses used to be built from mud. So, building houses with mud rather than cement and concrete is like taking a step back into the past, which could actually be the best step forward.
