@nopolluting: Would you use hemp as a building material? Hempcrete is a building material made from the woody core of the industrial hemp plant mixed with a lime-based binder. Unlike traditional insulation, it helps regulate indoor temperatures, manages humidity naturally, and can even store carbon throughout its lifetime. Despite being plant-based, the lime content makes hempcrete surprisingly fire resistant. The lime mineralizes the hemp particles over time, making the wall hard to ignite. Hemp buildings can be found across both Europe and North America. France has one of the longest track records with the material, where hemp-lime construction has been used since the early 1990s in both new homes and the renovation of historic buildings. The UK has also embraced the material widely, with hempcrete appearing in private homes, schools, and community buildings. In the US, Hempitecture is one of the leading companies working to scale hemp construction. They focus on hemp fiber insulation products designed to directly replace fiberglass and mineral wool, building systems that integrate into mainstream construction workflows, and supporting regional hemp supply chains by connecting farmers to builders.
