ECO-STABILIZER-PLUS, innovation of the week by PROVID2

“ECO-STABILIZER-PLUS” is an innovative pavement stabilization solution designed by Jordan Valdès SONTIA METEKONG, as part of the Deployment of Environmental Technologies and Innovations for Sustainable Development and Poverty Reduction Project (PDTIE). This method uses geopolymers derived from local materials such as rice husk ash, clay and pozzolan, offering an ecological and economical alternative to traditional techniques.


Why choose ECO-STABILIZER-PLUS?

  • Superior durability: Compressive strength from 2.71 to 13.57 MPa, ensuring stronger, longer-lasting infrastructures.
  • Ecological: Reduces carbon footprint by recycling agricultural by-products and minimizing the use of imported materials.
  • Adaptable: Suitable for all types of soil and infrastructure, from roads to cycle paths.
  • Ease of application: Enables faster, less costly repair and construction work.

In collaboration with the Mission de Promotion de Matériaux Locaux (MIPROMALO), this innovation is set to change the landscape of roads in Cameroon. 👉 https://forest4dev.org/eco-stabilizer-plus/
