But why?
Did you know that Hemp a fantastic carbon sequester, for every cubic metre (m3) 130kg CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) is sequestered, in fact an acre of Cannabis Sativa L (Industrial Hemp) can sequester more CO2 per hectare than any forest or commercial crop and is therefore the ideal carbon sink.

That is just the start, lets tick some more boxes.

Recyclable, Both Hemp and Lime are recyclable.
Thermal Hemp Block & Cast Mix is an excellent Thermal barrier, when exposed to direct sunlight, unlike traditional building materials Thermal Hemp Block & Cast Mix retains up to 20% less heat and will release any heat trapped faster after exposure. Conversely works exceptionally well in maintaining heat generated, saving energy.
Fire retardant, Thermal Hemp Block & Cast Mix is an excellent fire retardant and can withstand direct flame, only charring the exposed area. Thwarting the growth of the fire through the remaining render.
Anti mould, the addition of lime to the hemp creates an environment where mould cannot grow and can recover from water penetration without moulding.Pest resistant it is also resistant to insect and vermin due to its alkaline properties. It also has fantastic acoustic damping properties, absorbing soundwaves
Carbon negative product, not only does it sequester carbon when being farmed, but it continues to collect carbon when applied to a building. In regard to Hemp’s High insulating properties, It can help improve your EPC rating of your building. Requiring less energy consumption, saving you money.
Collect Carbon Credits for every square metre of Thermal Hemp Block & Cast Mix as it will continue to sequester carbon whilst applied to the building.
UK made and grown – That means low transport miles, no ship or planes used here, just farming equipment and a few trucks. This also helps our local faming food and construction industries whilst helping the planet.
