For Hemp, Inc., Renewable Industrial Hemp Fiber Is a Clear Winner Over Wood

LAS VEGAS, NV, April 15, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NewMediaWire -- Hemp, Inc. (OTC PINK: HEMP), an established leader in the industrial hemp market, has long promoted the superiority of industrial hemp fiber over wood in specific applications. 

A recent article, written by Robert Ziner and published April 12 in Hemp Today, summarizes the favorable characteristics of industrial hemp and makes a clear argument for hemp’s many environmental benefits when compared with wood. 

In the article, Ziner discusses the strength, versatility and fast growth rate of industrial hemp, naming it “the most efficient biomass source in the world.” 

Some of the most striking characteristics of hemp include:

•  A hemp stalk’s bast fiber is 10 times stronger than Douglas fir, a preferred wood for construction framing.
•  One acre of hemp absorbs 8.88 tons of CO2 annually, while the same acre of forest can contain only 2.5 tons.
•  Hemp has the highest cellulose content of all plants, making it an excellent replacement in many cellulosic applications, like wood-based paper.

According to Ziner, industrial hemp isn’t just lighter and less expensive to process than wood, it yields 400% more usable fiber than an acre of trees. 

Ziner, who spent decades working in lumber processing and optimization, is the founder and CEO of Canadian Industrial Hemp Corp.
