Product catalog summary
Introduction
Hemcrete Projects, part of the Lime Technology group, specializes in innovative, hemp-based, low carbon building systems. They focus on designing, manufacturing, and installing high-performance off-site panellised and timber frame building systems that are environmentally friendly and thermally efficient.
The Hembuild® System
The core of Hemcrete Projects' solution is Tradical® Hemcrete®, a bio-composite material made from hemp shiv and a lime-based binder. This material offers excellent insulation and thermal inertia, creating stable internal environments with minimal heating or cooling needs. It is a negative embodied carbon product, outperforming conventional materials in sustainability.
Key Benefits of Hembuild®
  • Humidity Control: Passively regulates humidity and temperature for comfortable internal conditions.
  • Thermal Stability: Provides stable, comfortable environments by regulating internal temperature and humidity.
  • Low U-values and Y-values: Meets Passiv Haus standards with low thermal bridging.
  • Negative Embodied Carbon: Locks carbon within building walls, reducing carbon footprint.
  • Reduced M&E Costs: Lowers energy demand and operational costs.
  • Fast Track Build Times: Off-site manufacturing allows for predictable and reduced build times.
Thermal Performance
Hembuild® regulates internal temperature, reducing energy use by up to 75% compared to conventional materials. It supports an airtight building envelope suitable for one to three storey buildings, with U-values ranging from 0.11 to 0.19 W/m2K.
Embodied Carbon
Hembuild® significantly reduces embodied carbon, locking up around 30kg of CO2 per m2 of wall, compared to typical cavity walls that emit around 100kg of CO2 per m2.
Service Package
Hemcrete Projects offers a complete package including structural engineering, panel design, factory manufacture, site erection, and more, ensuring quality homes that exceed current building standards.
Sustainability Commitment
The Lime Technology group is committed to reducing carbon emissions, aligning with government targets to reduce emissions by 34% by 2020 and 80% by 2050.
