Hemp Block UK
High-density hemp and lime blocks for enclosures and insulation, with a verified EPD and negative carbon footprint.
A system of prefabricated hemp (hempcrete) blocks air-cured (with no firing). They allow walls to be built with thermal inertia and moisture regulation without the drying times of sprayed hemp applied on site. Its BioSys system (with Vicat natural cement) or pure lime versions offer solutions for new build and refurbishment, guaranteeing a breathable and healthy building envelope.
Data, not promises: It's one of the few biomaterials companies to publish its detailed Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) openly. Its system demonstrates that it sequesters more CO₂ than it emits (approx -11kg CO₂/m³ in product), scientifically validating the concept of the "building as a carbon sink".
