WHY HEMP INSULATION?“Hempcrete”, which is made from hemp fiber and minerals is flame and mold resistant and provides eco-insulation for both cold and hot climates. In addition to addressing a current need for affordable, durable, and mobile emergency shelter, this innovation effort supports the development of the United State’s emerging hemp industry, regenerative agriculture practices, resident stewardship programming for healthy soil, water, and air, training for eco-infrastructure jobs, and a network of organizations to support a thriving humanity and planet.
