Hemp offers carbon-negative and sustainable alternatives for construction.
Hempcrete: Advocating for and training professionals in the use of hempcrete (lime hemp concrete), which is a key material for sustainable, energy-efficient, and carbon-sequestering “green buildings.”
Insulation: Production of natural hemp fiber insulation materials (hemp wool, fiber-board) to improve the energy efficiency of the building sector.
This is the foundational group, focusing on the source of the product.
Hemp Cultivation: Promoting and standardizing regenerative and sustainable farming practices for industrial hemp (low THC varieties). This includes using hemp as a rotational crop to improve soil health, sequester carbon, and reduce reliance on chemical inputs.
Hemp Processing: Developing efficient and eco-friendly methods for processing the raw hemp plant into its three main components: fiber, seeds, and hurds (core), ensuring maximum value extraction with minimal waste (circular economy principles).
This group focuses on replacing unsustainable materials with natural hemp fiber.
Hemp Fiber Products: Utilizing hemp fiber, known for its durability and sustainability, as a raw material for the textile and fashion industries. This is driven by the growing consumer demand for eco-friendly fabrics and circular economy initiatives.
Paper/Pulp: Exploring the use of hemp fiber as a more sustainable alternative to wood pulp for paper production.
While not a traditional industrial group, this is a critical functional area for a cooperative focused on development and future-proofing.
R&D: Supporting research on cultivation techniques, processing methods, and the development of new hemp-based products (e.g., biofuels, bioplastics, automotive components).
ReFi Co-Lab: Developing and deploying Regenerative Finance (ReFi) models using blockchain and data to ensure transparent, automated, and fair compensation to members, linking financial returns directly to regenerative and Fair Trade outcomes.
This group capitalizes on the nutritional and wellness benefits of hemp seeds and extracts.
Food and Beverages: Using hemp seeds (high in protein, Omega-3s, and minerals) for human consumption (e.g., de-hulled seeds, hemp oil, hemp milk, food ingredients).
Animal Feed: Utilizing whole hemp seeds or by-products for animal feed.
Wellness & Cosmetics: Researching and developing hemp-derived extracts (like CBD, subject to regulation) for use in cosmetics, health products, and pharmaceuticals.
