Papercrete

Papercrete is an alternative construction material made from a paper-like fibrous material mixed, Portland cement and clay or soil. Papercrete dates back to 1928 when it was first patented. Since the late 80′s Papercrete has had renewed interest as an alternative or environmentally friendly building material due the amount recycled paper used to make it. Papercrete is faily flexible and is commonly used in rounded or domed structures. Once dry it has a fibrous texture and gray in color. Stucco can be sprayed / applied for a more finished look.
