About Hemp Homes Canada
Our Mission
At Hemp Homes Canada, we are dedicated to revolutionizing the building supplies industry with carbon-negative construction materials. Our mission is to provide sustainable, high-quality hemp-based building products that promote healthier living environments using prefabricated hempblocks and hemppanels.
Hempcrete
Hempcrete, also known as hemp-lime, is an innovative, breathable natural material made from the inner woody core of the hemp plant, combined with lime and water. This remarkable material is an ideal choice for an energy-efficient and resilient building material that has been used around the world for centuries to make Hempcrete structures.
Hempcrete Benefits
Hempcrete is an eco-friendly building material that offers a wide range of benefits. Hemp is one of the fastest-growing plants on Earth, second only to bamboo. Hemp matures in a little as 90-100 days.
Hemp is an exceptionally sustainable crop, absorbing up to 15 tonnes of CO2 per hectare. When transformed into hempcrete products, the carbon is permanently stored within, making the product carbon negative.
Hempcrete provides excellent thermal insulation, helping to regulate indoor temperatures and reduce energy consumption for heating and cooling by up to 70%.
Hempcrete is lightweight, non-toxic, and resistant to mold, pests, rot, emf's and fire, making it a safe and durable building product. It also offers excellent noise reduction properties.
Hempcrete helps to detoxify indoor air quality by absorbing chemicals and other pollutants including wildfire smoke. Additionally, hempcrete’s moisture-regulating properties contribute to healthier indoor air quality by preventing excess humidity.
In summary, hempcrete is a versatile, sustainable material that can greatly enhance the environmental performance of building projects. Our prefabricated hempblocks and hemppanels can be used for buildings in any climate region across the country.
