RE: Hemp Can Grow Jobs And Houses Once We Grow Our Awareness Enough To Understand Its Benefits

in #marijuana8 years ago

Me too. Here are just some of the benefits of building with HempCrete.

  • Environmentally more friendly with less use of petrochemicals.
  • Low maintenance.
  • Exceptionally quiet from exterior and interior noise.
  • Cost effective.
  • Potential carbon-neutral construction.
  • Aesthetically pleasing with other materials (stone, wood, tile).
  • Plaster invented in B.C. creates a waterproof, breathable shell around the house.
  • Thermal mass assists temperature control in low and high temperatures.
  • Insect and rat resistant.
  • Fireproof and earthquake resistant.
  • Pozzolonic vs Hydroscopic.
  • Scalable cost – on par with or less per square foot than a wood frame house.
