Hempcrete workshop

Thank you to everyone at Lime Technology. We found your workshop very stimulating. It was great to actually see hempcrete and to use it!

Lime Technology has launched Tradical® Hemcrete®, a new product innovation of cast in situ hemp-lime walling.

Created in partnership with Lhoist UK Castle Cement and Hemcore, three of the world’s leading authorities on lime and hemp based products, Tradical® Hemcrete®, often generically known as Hempcrete, can actually reverse the damaging effects of greenhouse gases by locking up harmful CO2 emissions within wall construction.

In the UK, the construction and use of buildings accounts for over 50% of the carbon dioxide produced. Studies have shown that up to 200kg of CO2 is emitted in the production of each square metre of walling for houses alone – equating to 40 tonnes for the walls of a typical house.
