The ProblemUrban slums
Many people are living in poverty, especially in urban areas of the developing world. Access to decent and affordable housing can be a first step out of the cycle of poverty and can dramatically improve the quality of life of the world’s urban poor.
Refugees and IDPs
Following either natural disasters or war, many people are living as refugees or internally displaced people (IDPs) in very difficult circumstances, with a lack of dignity and security.

The Octagon range of products, made from ReBUS™, our sustainable, flexible and modular building system, offers a fast and simple solution to shelter and housing issues in slums and informal settlements and also for refugees and IDPs.
