Laboratorium. Eco-friendly housing construction
Russia has come up with a technology that makes ordinary rye straw a material for green houses. In the new episode of Laboratory, we will go to production, where what was considered an unnecessary residue yesterday is transformed into construction panels.
How does the harvest from the fields transform into warm walls? How is straw better than concrete? How can innovative development help residents of hot countries? And why aren't the thatched houses burning?
An exclusive experiment is available only in our programme.
