A fast-growing fibre with low-input needs

about
Hemp

Every part of the hemp plant has value, leaving almost no waste when utilised properly

Hemp is a high-yield, fast-growing plant that thrives with less water and fewer chemical inputs than other plant fibres like cotton. Its deep roots support soil health and reduce erosion, aligning well with organic and regenerative agriculture principles. 

While cultivation is typically low-impact, fibre processing methods vary. Dew retting, a slower, natural process, is preferred, while water or chemical retting can generate harmful wastewater. Like many bast fibres, post-processing impacts should be carefully considered.
