Designing With Hemp and Lime Biocomposite | November 12, 2008 | Montgomery, TX
About the Symposium At a Glance:
Tradical® Hemcrete®, an engineered blend of industrial hemp and lime biocomposite building material, is at the forefront of the sustainable building movement in Europe and the United Kingdom. You are invited to learn more about this material, which is now available in the United States. This event will be of particular interest to architects and specifiers who are involved in sustainable design and construction.

This symposium will explore how the use of industrial hemp and lime in the design of a wall system can significantly reduce energy consumption and environmental impact. The material is used as an insulating wall system and is particularly notable for its carbon-capturing properties and excellent thermal performance.
