Hemp was the largest agricultural crop in the world until 1883. The basic building block of plastics is cellulose taken from petroleum, but toxic petrochemical compositions are not the only way to derive plastics.

Hemp based materials can replace wood and other materials used to build homes and other structures including foundations, walls, shingles, panelling, pipes, insulation, concrete and paint.

Industrial hemp has been scientifically proven to absorb more CO2 per hectare than any forest or commercial crop and is therefore the ideal carbon sink.

+ Potential Areas

There are approximately 202 million hectares of unused arable land in Africa.

+ CO2 Capture

In theory, the total potential for carbon dioxide capture by growing one crop of industrial hemp on 202 million hectares with a capture rate of 18 tonnes per hectare would be: 3.63 Billion Tonnes

+ Growing Hemp

Hemp grows in moderate to poor soil, meaning industrial hemp seeds can plant virtually anywhere. Even where crops would not normally grow in the first place.

+ Hemp Products

A few of the product ranges that can be produced from hemp include: Food and Nutrition, Body Care, Paper & Paper Products, Fabric, Textiles, Rope, Building Materials & Fuel

+ Food Security

Industrial hemp plants can be used as green manure and actually revitalise the soil in which it’s grown. And adding carbon char to the soil will vastly improve crop yields on a permanent basis.
