How it Works
BaleBlox is a Pioneer in Field-to-Family Building Supplies
Partnerships with farmers transform agricultural waste
into unique building materials.
Off-site manufacturing combines multiple construction elements into a single integrated unit.
More affordable, efficient, and sustainable builds transform the
residential & commercial market.
Design
-
Housing cost has outstripped inflation over the past 50 years and is now the largest expense facing most families, making it a major factor in housing instability among the working poor.
-
Agri-waste bioproducts like straw are low-cost and abundant, but the labor intensity required to build bale homes has pushed the price above conventional construction.
-
BaleBlox is a patented solution to these challenges:
-
made with low-cost waste and recycled materials
-
easily assembled onsite with low labor intensity
-
less expensive and quicker home construction
-
energy efficient with high insulation R-Values
-
load-bearing and moisture-, pest- and fire-resistant
-
integrated channels for wiring and plumbing
-
may be clad with any desired finishing material

Farmers
-
Farm bankruptcies are at historic highs, with many farmers facing unsustainable debt-to-asset ratios and foreclosure threatening farm families across the U.S.
-
BaleBlox is dedicated to helping farmers and rural communities across America:
-
partnering with farmers to purchase biowaste
-
producing containers in rural micro-factories
-
generating much-needed new jobs and revenue
-
-
BaleBlox is positioned for equally positive impact in developing nations, where farmers are facing severe challenges to their operational and financial survival.
Environment
-
Conventional construction impacts the environment
via mining, deforestation, and energy consumption, and it produces 2 billion tons of landfill waste annually
-
Conventionally constructed buildings also emit an estimated one-third of all greenhouse gases (GHGs) and consume roughly 40% of all energy resources.
-
Meanwhile, millions of tons of waste straw decay or are burned due to low market demand, releasing a large volume of CO2 into the atmosphere when burned.
-
BaleBlox helps combat climate change by:
-
using recyclable materials for the containers
-
using agricultural waste products for their filler
-
sequestering the carbon stored in bioproducts
-
reducing transportation via regional production
-
reducing landfill volume via zero-waste assembly
-
powering production with anaerobic digesters
-
