The Genesis
Unearthing Sisal's potential In the late 2000s, John Ferguson embarked on a journey to educate small-scale farmers in East Africa on climate change mitigation. This endeavour led him to the remarkable sisal plant — a drought-resistant fibre crop with a forgotten legacy in construction. The possibilities inherent in sisal inspired us to innovate.
