Not all materials are suited to the island’s humid, coastal climate. Sustainable construction in Mauritius means choosing the right materials for resilience, comfort, and environmental performance.

Locally sourced timber, volcanic stone, bamboo, and lime-based plasters are popular eco-options that blend well with natural surroundings and hold up to tropical weather. Combined with modern technologies like cool roof coatings and breathable walls, these materials ensure your structure is both sustainable and long-lasting.

White Mountain Contracting helps clients make informed choices, balancing budget, style, and sustainability for every eco-tourism project across the island.
