Domed Pit Latrine
Slab
Domed Pit Latrine Slab (DPLS) is one of the safest technologies
for disposing human waste. The slab is used to cover a pit
latrine.
DPLS is made with an air tight cover that helps to contain
the smell inside the pit, while at the same time keeping away
the flies. This makes DPLS pit latrines most hygienic, and
cheapest.
Why use DPLS?
- Cheap. Uses only 1 bag of cement and requires no metal
reinforcement.
- Has an airtight cover that keeps away the flies and contains
the smell in the pit. No need for a Vent Pipe.
- Can be used for mass production where thousands of pit
latrines are required, like settlement projects or refugee
camps
COMAC trains communities in the entire production and installation
process.
