Why Choose Hemp?----------------------------------------------- Hemp is the greenest material for fabric available as it requires no herbicides and no pesticides. Hemp is both biodegradable and nontoxic. Hemp is one of the most durable natural fibres that exist with high tensile strength. Hemp softens with use and yet remains hardwearing. Hemp fabrics dye very effectively and retain colour well over time. Hemp garments breathe due to the porous nature of the fibres. Hemp cloth stays cooler in warm weather as well as retaining heat in cool weather. Hemp clothing naturally stops up to 95% of the sun’s harmful UV light. Hemp is Not Marijuana---------------------------------------------- The word hemp is English for a number of varieties of the Cannabis Sativa plant, particularly the varieties like “industrial hemp” that were bred over time for industrial uses such as fuel, fibre, paper, seed, food, oil etc. So hemp is not the same as marijuana. It is the same plant but hemp contains very low levels of THC, the psychotropic component of marijuana, and has no adverse effects!
