Hempcrete

UK-based startup Rare Earth Global makes hemp-based materials as alternatives for plastic. The startup develops biocomposites by mixing hemp, shiv, water, sand, and lime. Hempcrete is a lightweight, low-density concrete alternative that is fire- and mold-resistant. The startup also offers hemp fiber-based insulation material suitable for roofs, ceilings, walls, and floors. Apart from concrete and insulation materials, Rare Earth Global provides hemp-based plastics, carbon fiber, boards, and modular systems for use in buildings and construction
