Energy efficiency isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a long-term investment. Hempcrete shines in this area, combining solid insulation performance with natural temperature regulation to keep your home comfortable without overusing energy.
What makes hempcrete energy smart?
Excellent insulation value
While hempcrete’s R-value’s real strength lies in how it regulates both heat and humidity. It works with your environment, not against it.
Thermal mass keeps temperatures stable
Hempcrete absorbs and slowly releases heat, which helps prevent big temperature swings. This passive thermal regulation reduces heating and cooling needs.
Fewer thermal bridges
Because hempcrete is applied in continuous layers, it reduces gaps and cold spots common in traditional framing systems. That leads to fewer drafts and better overall performance.
Humidity control = energy savings
Stable humidity means your HVAC doesn’t have to work overtime. That’s good for your energy bill—and your indoor air quality.

✅ Sustainable Swap:
Not ready for a full hemp build? Try replacing old insulation with hemp-fiber batts in smaller projects like a garage, workshop, or van build.
