Hempcrete Market Analysis:
The global market of hempcrete is witnessing a significant growth because of its sustainable nature. Hempcrete is made from hemp, a rapidly renewable resource that absorbs CO2 during growth, reducing the environmental impact of construction. The production of Hempcrete requires minimal energy, and its application in buildings contributes to carbon negativity, making it an ideal choice for builders and consumers who care about the environment and want to minimize their impact on it.
Hempcrete is a building material that possesses remarkable durability and resilience, due to its innate ability to resist fire, pests, and mold. Due to its natural resilience, structures made of hempcrete last longer, promote healthier living environments, and require less maintenance over time, making it a wise long-term investment in sustainable and durable construction. According to an article in The New York Times in 2023, the interest in hemp as a viable substitute for construction material is growing as developers seek greener building options.
Hempcrete Market Trends:
Significant Technological Advancements
Innovations in technology represent one of the key factors driving the market growth of hempcrete across the globe. For instance, in a detailed interview published in HempToday in 2023, reperesentative from International Hemp Building Association (IHBA) explained the use of hemp fiber insulation-filled panels, which have led to the support for a hemp processing and insulation factory at various countries, including Sweden. The interview further highlights that the spray application of hempcrete is now a well-understood technology and has been recognized by many builders who need a faster manner of installation, especially for retrofit projects. Prefabricated blocks are also being used more widely as production has been increased in Belgium with IsoHemp and in Italy with Tecnocanapa Sennini.
Rising Demand for Energy Efficient Building
The increase in energy prices and heightened climate change awareness have escalated demand for energy-efficient buildings. Hempcrete, known for its superior insulation properties, addresses this need by minimizing reliance on artificial heating and cooling systems. For instance, in the United Kingdom, the "HemPod" project demonstrated how hempcrete's thermal insulation capabilities significantly reduce energy consumption. In addition to this, Hempitecture Inc, a company spun out from years of competitively earned DOE mentorship, that produces industrial hemp for use in buildings as insulation. Hempitecture produces industrial hemp for use in buildings as insulation to improve energy efficiency. They have developed biobased thermal insulation products and completed over 20 hemp insulation projects.
Latest Industry News:
The market is also being driven by increasing investments and capacity expansions:
- In 2024, A Pennsylvania-based hemp-lime building company, Americhanvre Cast Hemp, received a $1.9 million grant from the U.S. Army for research and development (R&D) of hempcrete construction. The project aims to study the material's resistance to fire, insulation properties, and carbon footprint, with the goal of reducing fuel and material consumption in the construction industry. The Pennsylvania Housing Research Center at Penn State University will expand on an in-field performance monitoring regimen to monitor hempcrete installations around the country.
- In 2024, The Federation of International Hemp Organizations (FIHO) and ASTM International have partnered to enhance global standards for the hemp industry, focusing on expanding guidance for various hemp applications, particularly in building materials like hempcrete. This collaboration aims to develop comprehensive standards to support the hemp value chain, with a specific focus on building materials to promote sustainable alternatives to traditional construction materials like concrete.
