Public investment capital is often likened to the “lifeblood” that drives and stimulates economic growth. However, even though funds at the State Treasury are fully available and payment procedures have been streamlined to unprecedented levels, the flow of capital continues to stall because of bottlenecks involving site clearance, construction materials, and acceptance procedures.

According to the latest statistics from the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the construction sector accounts for nearly 40% of global CO2 emissions, with building materials making up a significant share. This poses an urgent demand for major cities to replace traditional construction materials with green alternatives.
