AKYAS Sanitation

AKYAS
Faecal Sludge Management Innovations

An FSM solution provider (and more).

Every 1 in 4 people globally uses a pit latrine.

But not all latrine pits are safely managed, leading to environmental contaminations and public health problems.
There are many versions of (bad) pit latrines: shallow hole in the ground, open-bottomed rings, pit connected to a straight pipe for direct discharge to the environment, to name a few…
AKYAS set out with a vision of everyone having better health and well-being,

and life quality through making sanitation accessible and affordable for all.
Our series of faecal sludge management innovations

are up and running with local partners in Jordan and Bangladesh in both humanitarian and community contexts. We generate positive impacts on health, livelihood opportunities and more. We are further working towards a local circular sanitation economy with various stakeholders.
Join us to bring affordable FSM solutions to communities that need it most.

Sanitation entrepreneurs

We collaborate with sanitation entrepreneurs to co-design suitable revenue streams and payment package to the communities they serve as last-mile delivery.
Household customers

We work with partners to go into communities to hear their needs, raise awareness on FSM, and create viable and affordable methods to make complete FSM possible.
Manufacturers, sales and distribution partners

Help us localise the supply chain of our system to your location, from manufacturing to distribution. This is the way forward to scaling the impact of good FSM.
NGO and iNGO experts

We strive to address operational pain points of the local expert partners in both development and humanitarian contexts. We adopt a “consult-modify-consult” approach but also provide tested solutions for scaled-up interventions.
Governments

We would be delighted to collaborate with government entities to contribute to various SDG goals. Our impacts on the environment, health, and livelihood opportunities will be reflected in reduced costs, higher economic productivity, and decreased greenhouse gas emissions.
