Singaporean company Hamilton Labs plans to boost India 's national effort to improve sanitary conditions by making 3D -printed toilets in the country. In a partnership with India ’s Center for Rural Information and Action , Hamilton Labs will ship its HamilBot Mark 1 3D printer to the Bihar region, where it will use a special cement to print the WCs. Fortunately, these 3D printed toilets won’t be made from typical 3D printing materials like PLA and ABS, but from a special cement made from recycled fly ash, a coal combustion product that is available in abundance in countries that use coal-fired power plants. The move is part of Indians prime minister Narendra Modi's pledge to end the practice of open defecation by 2019 , with About half more toilets required. 1 a billion Singaporean do not have access to lavatories.
