What Is Hempcrete?
Hempcrete is a bio-based wall material made from hemp hurd (the woody inner core of the hemp stalk), a lime-based binder, and water. It is used as a non-structural infill in healthier homes because it is breathable and low in toxic off-gassing.
Why people choose hempcrete
- Breathable wall assemblies that help manage moisture
- Low VOC profile compared with many conventional insulations
- Made from a rapidly renewable plant fiber
