Frequently Asked Questions

Can CaneCrete eco blocks be used for structural load-bearing walls?

Yes. With compressive strength exceeding 7.5 MPa, CaneCrete eco blocks meet Costa Rican structural and seismic codes for load-bearing exterior walls.

How do CaneCrete eco blocks perform in Guanacaste’s tropical climate?

CaneCrete blocks provide 3x the thermal insulation of standard concrete block (R-12 vs R-3), keeping home interiors up to 8°C (14°F) cooler and cutting air conditioning electricity costs by up to 35%.

Are CaneCrete eco blocks resistant to insects, rot, and moisture?

Yes. The sugarcane fibers are mineralized during manufacturing with hydraulic binders and natural mineral borates, rendering them completely immune to termites, wood-boring insects, and mold.
