HEMPCRETE - the Ultimate Sustainable Building Material

in #people7 years ago

Hempcrete is one of the most incredible building materials offering many great benefits. It is environmentally more friendly with less use of petrochemicals. Hempcrete provides exceptionally insulation from exterior and interior noise. Energy efficient; great thermal mass assists temperature control in low and high temperatures. Hempcrete actually gets harder with age unlike standard concrete. All this while being aesthetically pleasing and extremely cost effective.

"Hempcrete is a bio-composite made of the inner woody core of the hemp plant mixed with a lime-based binder. The hemp core or “Shiv” has a high silica content which allows it to bind well with lime. This property is unique to hemp among all natural fibers. The result is a lightweight cementitious insulating material weighing about a seventh or an eighth of the weight of concrete. "
