A Comprehensive Review of Hempcrete as a Sustainable Building Material

open access: yesInnovative Infrastructure Solutions
Abstract Due to the substantial contribution of the construction industry to greenhouse gas emissions, there exists a pressing need for the development and adoption of sustainable alternatives. In this context, hempcrete has emerged as a promising alternative in the pursuit of sustainable construction practices.

Magnesia-silicate based binders for hempcrete

2023
Composite building materials composed of bio-based aggregates and cementitious binders gained more and more interest in the last decades due to their low embodied CO2. Within lightweight materials that have an insulating role, the most common aggregate-binders used and studied are hemp with CaO-based binders such as Portland cement or hydrated/calcined

Hygrothermal performance of hempcrete for Ontario (Canada) buildings

Journal of Cleaner Production, 2017
Abstract Hempcrete is a bio-aggregate based composite material used for building envelopes which typically consists of hemp shiv (hurd), lime binder and water. Hempcrete has several distinct advantages including low thermal conductivity, effective moisture buffering, and high sound absorption, while having a high carbon sequestration “index”.
