Join Mandi Kerr and Cameron McIntosh on this episode of Moving ^HEMP Forward, Hemp Based Building Materials For Structures. Cameron McIntosh is the owner of Americhanvre Cast Hemp, Industrial Hemp Coalition Coordinator at All Together Now PA Americhanvre Cast Hemp We design, partner, and install hemp-based building materials. Green building and sustainable design are at the heart of every building project. Our innovative 'Hempcrete', made of hemp herd and lime–can be produced sustainably from a renewable resource that sequesters carbon as it grows. The benefits of using Hempcrete outweigh those of traditional building materials. Here are a few: • Insulation to your home or business is carbon negative • Natural thermal properties • Acoustically properties • Fire-resistant • Pest-resistant Our mission is to actively store carbon in the walls of our homes, and in doing so, to dramatically improve their energy efficiency in the process. We are dedicated to the development of applications for hemp and lime materials that reach beyond their capacity for thermal and fire resistance. At Americhanvre, we envision a future where hemp begins to bridge the gap between sustainability and affordability in our choice of building materials. Americhanvre is also committed to being mindful of our impact on the environment, supporting our local economy where possible, and promoting the growth and well-being of our clients and employees. By working openly with others in this industry, we hope to participate in accelerating the shift towards hemp materials and enlightened business practices for the betterment of the planet and of our fellow human beings.
