Hempcrete Walls and Floor
Hempcrete Walls and Floor
Due to hempcrete being a thermal mass wall with continuous insulation R-value doesn't reflect the thermal performance of the wall. However, most testing of hempcrete gives an R-value of about 2 per inch.
The benefits of using hempcrete include:
Fire resistant with a zero flame index
Breathable wall that prevents mold & mildew
Carbon negative for the life of the building
Non-toxic natural materials with no VOC's
Sustainable raw materials
A proprietary structurally engineered thermal mass wall panel with continuous insulation able to be fabricated offsite or onsite using standardized hempcrete raw materials and formula that is set on an engineered foundation.
Hemp hurd/shiv which is a bi-product of hemp fiber extraction
Proprietary binder consisting mostly of building grade limes
Water
Currently, the cost of Evolve hempcrete SIPS panels and labor has allowed our hempcrete solution to be more cost effective then traditional construction, as proven in our latest project.
