Why Is Hemp Hull So Important?
Completely Natural and Renewable
Harvested from the cannabis sativa plant, industrial hemp grows rapidly without harmful agrochemicals, making it an eco-friendly and sustainable option.
Highly Absorbent
The moisture-absorbing ability of hemp hull makes it ideal for hemp hurd animal bedding, keeping environments cleaner and drier.
Excellent for Hempcrete and Construction
As an insulating material, hemp hull is combined with lime to form hempcrete, a breathable and energy-efficient building material.
Biodegradable and Safe for the Environment
Unlike many nonrenewable materials, hemp hull is fully compostable, returning safely to the earth after use in construction or bedding.
