Hempcrete Construction

Mixing of Hempcrete

• The raw materials like hemp shives, lime and water are mixed properly in the right proportion.

Moulding of Hempcrete

• The mixed Hempcrete is then fill in the mould and compacted properly so that the air voids get removed.

Curing of Hempcrete

• After that, the blocks are kept for curing in the open air. Curing is very important, which gives strength and hardness to the Hempcrete blocks.
