Ceiling in a Can is a patented, low-cost, DIY insulating ceiling solution designed for small houses and shacks. The product is easy to transport, manufactured on-site by local entrepreneurs, and costs half the price of competing products. It provides energy savings for homes while creating job opportunities in low-income communities. Launched by Dave Pons at the Better Living Challenge showcase, Ceiling in a Can aims to improve living conditions and support economic growth in underserved areas. Dave Pons participated in the program 2013.
