HEMP F FIBER F FOR OR A A SUS USTAINABLE LE F FUT UTUR URE Hemp fiber is the natural and environmentally friendly alternative for industrial applications. It’s quite simple: hemp fiber with a supplement of biodegradables can be used as an alternative to plastic, cotton, wood, steel and synthetics. You name it, and a hemp version can be produced: from clothing to paper, from tableware to automotive and scooter parts, from musical instruments to bird feed, from yoga mat to furniture. There are literally endless possibilities. BENEFITS OF HEMP-BASED INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS Automotive interior parts from hemp are lighter and safer compared to glass fiber. In addition, they are lighter and more durable than steel and won’t rust, Hemp based construction materials are more user-friendly than materials based on glass or rock wool, Hemp paper lasts many times longer than paper from trees, Hemp fiber-based bioplastic is many times stronger than oil-based plastic. And biodegradable! The production of petrochemical plastics creates tremendous CO 2 emissions. Hemp actually absorbs CO 2 !The production of cotton requires huge amounts of pesticides. Hemp requires virtually none! With the development of hemp nano materials, hemp fiber even becomes suitable for use in batteries and accumulators.

ANIMAL C L CARE RE HEMP PRODUCTS FOR HEALTHY ANIMALS Animal care products from Hemp are sustainably produced without any chemical additives. Virtually dust-free, therefore much less chance of allergic reactions and respiratory problems! And the natural antibacterial properties of the hemp plant prevent diseases and infections.
