Hempcrete:
Our Coarse Hemp Shiv has a wide variety of stem sizes along with fiber etc. This variety of particles will provide for a stronger, better, interlocking hempcrete. Mix Coarse Hemp Shiv, with either NHL 5.0, Lime Putty Mortar or our H-1 Binder (see directions below) to cast in situ walls of various thicknesses and shapes. Hempcrete is self supporting, but not load bearing. It’s usually formed around a timber frame structure. Use Hempcrete to construct floors and roofs, adding a breathable, insulating layer.
Restoration Projects:
In old buildings, use hempcrete to replace damaged or missing infill. When used internally Coarse Hemp Shiv adds an insulating and breathable render to stone walls. For interior hemp/lime plaster we recommend mixing NHL 2.0 and Hemp.
A Super Sack of Coarse Hemp Shiv comes in a 500 pound bag super sack.
