moladi Construction Technology


moladi represents a ground breaking shift in the construction industry, offering a revolutionary approach to address global housing shortages while driving economic empowerment. This award winning, innovative, disruptive technology simplifies and accelerates the construction process through its patented reusable plastic formwork system, which enables the rapid production of durable, high-quality structures at a fraction of traditional costs.

By leveraging locally sourced materials and empowering local labour, moladi not only reduces logistical complexities but also fosters self-sufficiency within communities. Its focus on cost-effectiveness, speed, and simplicity makes it an ideal solution for tackling the housing backlog in developing and developed countries alike. Furthermore, moladi emphasizes skills transfer by training unskilled individuals in construction techniques, creating pathways for them to become entrepreneurs. The moladi model creates sustainable job opportunities, bringing the unemployed into the economy and enabling communities to uplift themselves.

moladi stands as a symbol of empowerment, combining innovation with social impact. It transforms housing challenges into opportunities for economic growth, providing a scalable, inclusive solution that meets the urgent need for affordable shelter while promoting long-term development and self-reliance globally.

EMPOWERING PEOPLE TO HELP THEMSELVES

Department of Human Settlements


Minister Thembi Simelane Human Settlements "Alternative building technology the way to go for quicker housing delivery" As Gauteng’s housing backlog continues to widen beyond the current 1.2-million units and this lacking security of tender, which impacts on economic empowerment and employment, human settlements experts have called for more innovative delivery models and alternative or innovative building technologies ABT or IBT to be embraced.

Gauteng human settlements MEC Tasneem Motara pointed out during an address at the Built Environment Indaba 2025, held last week, that Gauteng is home to more than 15-million people and is growing by about 300 000 residents each year, which makes for a relentless pace of urbanisation.



Youth employment and Skills Development Program


Entrepreneurship and skill development can be powerful tools in combating unemployment. By fostering a culture of innovation and creating jobs, entrepreneurs can help address the issue of high unemployment rates, particularly among youth. Developing entrepreneurial skills, like business planning, marketing, and finance, can empower individuals to not only find employment but also to create their own opportunities.

What is the cost to 3D print a house? What is the cost to 3D print a house or rather the "walls" of a house? What is the cost to 3D print the walls of a house? Whenever there is a post regarding 3D printing of homes, we are tagged by friends and colleagues to respond to the advantages of moladi vs 3D Printing. We therefore want to make it quite clear that this post is published purely to summarise our take on the topic and to have the ability to reference these questions and statements without having to repeat what we see as inherent issues associated with the 3D printing process of houses. All of the numbers used for 3D printing cost purposes are assumed, as these cost are not readily available for the purpose of this cost example. We would invite any 3D printing entity to help with the actual numbers to take any guesswork out of the cost estimation.
