Expressing his views on the importance of fly-ash bricks in construction, he said, "The last decade has been an eventful one for the Indian construction industry. There has been rising emphasis on sustainable building strategies. Environmental norms are getting stricter and there have been instances when even multi-crore projects have been stopped for violating rules and regulations. The pressures of the economy are also making an impact on the construction process. Contractors are under pressure to stick to budgets, while also adhering to stricter quality standards. Fly ash bricks and blocks have been in the forefront of this revolution. This has ensured consistent demand for fly ash brick machines. Manufacturers on their part are demanding extension of tax benefits, given the environment-friendly work done by these machines, for further boosting sales. With demand for fly ash bricks and blocks on the rise, steps in this direction could become a reality, sooner than later. This is one market segment that could experience rapid growth in the next decade, given the continued impetus being provided to infrastructure and affordable housing projects."
