African Sanitation Solutions Limited

Our research programs, conducted over a broad spectrum of alternative sanitation solutions, locally and internationally, present us with only one conclusion namely that these solutions were (1) to complex in design, (2) to expensive and (3) installation and post installation costs were excessive and to complex for the average every day user.

The solution – the African Sanitation waterless, chemical free, DIY, low maintenance, environmentally friendly and self – contained toilet, the “COMPOSTER.”

This vision is to be achieved through the development of a coherent approach that incorporates the strategies produced by other stakeholders such as the people of South Africa, their individual communities, local municipalities, Provincial Sanitation Task Teams, South African Local Government Association, private sector participants and other role players. In line with the vision, our strategy has the objective of mobilising resources at all government and community levels to eliminate the backlog by 2010, thus ensuring a safe and healthier living environment for the people of Africa.

Furthermore our VISION for AFRICA includes our endeavors to assist, where possible, the governments of the various countries on the African Continent to achieve their individual Millennium Development Goals relating to the provision of safe drinking water, adequate sanitation and decent living quarters.

APPLICATION

Many Africans either live in the veld, emergency or temporary housing conditions where they seldom have access drinking water, let alone access to basic sanitation solutions, thus they are faced with issues such as poor health and safety issues every day. They need not to. The introduction of the “COMPOSTER” not only presents an acceptable sanitation solution, but creates a safe and healthy environment allowing for “dignity for all.”
