Hemp Building
Hemp is rapidly gaining recognition as a high-performance, low-carbon building material. Best known for hempcrete, hemp is also being used in engineered hemp-based timber and panel products that support more sustainable construction practices.
Hempcrete is a bio-composite made from hemp hurd and a lime-based binder. It offers excellent thermal performance, breathability, fire resistance, and long-term carbon storage, making it well suited to Australia’s climate and the growing demand for healthier, more energy-efficient buildings.
