Kubik is an African startup transforming hard-to-recycle plastics into sustainable construction materials. Addressing the pressing demand for housing and infrastructure across Africa, Kubik builds eco-friendly, modular, and cost-effective residential, commercial, and public facilities.
Kubik’s proprietary materials maintain affordability and environmental responsibility, using 100% plastic waste instead of traditional cement. This innovative process reduces CO₂ emissions by up to five times, cuts costs by 40%, and delivers durable, easy-to-assemble materials that provide excellent insulation, are non-toxic, and are fire-retardant. Recognized for its impact, Kubik participated in COP28, and its CEO, Kidus Asfaw, was featured in TIME 100 Climate.
