Building envelope
Cast hemp-lime wall system
Site-mixed hemp hurd and lime placed around a structural frame.

State profile / Northeast
Hemp-lime & research are defining the state’s role in the emerging domestic hemp economy.
Regional profile
Pennsylvania represents one node in a national industrial system. Its competitive position is shaped by crop knowledge, nearby processors, manufacturing capacity, freight access, research, and the willingness of downstream markets to specify domestic hemp materials.
Supply-chain position
Move upstream or downstream through the industrial system.
