THE HEMP
Native from Central Asia, hemp has been used by men since the Neolithic era. Its use then spread over all continents. Hemp clothing has been appreciated for a long time for its natural textile fabric.
Hemp is a wonderful plant with multiple benefits and incredible potential:
=> easy to grow
=> great growth rate in fibre per sqm
=> doesn’t require herbicides or other phytosanitaries
=> doesn’t require a lot of water
=> resists droughts
=> doesn’t deteriorate soils as opposed to cotton cultivation
Last century, hemp production has fallen in the western countries due to strong regulations around marijuana and strong competitiveness in the textile industry; leaving China and India to take this part of the market and become their biggest producers.
Nevertheless, in the last few years, hemp has returned gradually in less traditional markets: manufacturing of environmentally friendly building materials (like concrete, insulation ...), automobile market, sport, food (oil, seeds)…
In hemp everything is usable: fibre, seeds, barks and straw!
