vision
A home for everyone
Our definition of a home starts at the basic need of a roof over your head, the simplest form of living. But a home also means: a safe place for your family, privacy, a space to feel well. Living and being part of a community and build, develop and thrive together in balance with the planet.
mission
We help communities build sustainable homes together
Unibrick strives to be a platform that connects and empowers people to build and develop their community in a sustainable way and from the bottom up. By discarding the environment of plastic waste and producing bricks of that waste in order to realise affordable housing for everyone. For that we provide technology, service, knowledge and bricks too,
Ban Ki-moon
(8th secretary-general of the United Nations)
“Saving our planet, lifting people out of poverty, advancing economic growth… these are one and the same fight. We must connect the dots between climate change, water scarcity, energy shortages, global health, food security and women’s empowerment. Solutions to one problem must be solutions for all.”
