It’s Healthy

Hempcrete is non-toxic, making it the healthiest choice for home building. Come inside your house as it’s in construction and it won’t smell like chemicals and glues. Instead it will smell like earth and plants.

It is also naturally mold and mildew resistant, making it the perfect choice for the millions of Americans who has been subjected to mold exposure.

In addition, it is a bioremediator, meaning that it sequesters carbon, which makes it the only building material that is carbon negative.

It’s Efficient

Hempcrete has an R-value of 2.4/inch, making it extremely efficient. It also has thermal mass, which means it will hold the heat in your home for not just hours, but days. Furthermore, it is breathable, so it naturally regulates temperature and moisture.

It’s Sustainable

While being grown, hemp sequesters about 18,000 lbs of carbon per acre. Before building, it is mixed with lime to create a long-lasting, recyclable material partly made from what would otherwise be a waste byproduct of the plant.

It’s Fire Resistant

Fire resistant materials are becoming ever more important in our changing environment. Hempcrete is non-combustible and considered to be fireproof. Using Hempcrete will also reduce the potential exposure to harmful VOCs.

It’s Beautiful

Hempcrete not only gives your home an acoustically pleasing environment, it is also visually pleasing. Undulating ripples of the compacted hemp give the illusion of waves or striations in the Earth’s layers. And because of the nature of the material, it is possible to leave walls exposed for aesthetic appeal.
