The hemp revolution
Hemp
Towards a new paradigm
For several years now, a profound evolution has been taking place in areas such as health, education, food, management, finance, spirituality and society in general. This collective awareness is accelerating and marks a turning point in our relationship with the world. The old socio-economic model, based on competitiveness, excessive consumption and the exploitation of resources, is now revealing its limits. It generates growing inequalities, depletes the environment and fragments social ties. This obsolete system is struggling to meet today's challenges and propose sustainable solutions. Faced with this, an aspiration for greater transparency, cooperation and harmony with nature is emerging, with approaches emphasizing caring education, ethical resource management, ecological transition and sustainable innovation. The aim is to create a more equitable and resilient model, where people can flourish while respecting their environment.
What is hemp?
Hemp, textile hemp, industrial hemp or agricultural hemp is a variety of cultivated plant (Cannabis sativa L.) in the Cannabaceae family. It is an annual herbaceous plant, now considered the only species of its botanical genus. Although it refers to the same species (Cannabis is the Latin name for Hemp), the term hemp is now preferred to designate the industrial plant. Whereas Cannabis is the media name used to designate the recreational use of its psychoactive substance. Industrial hemp refers to varieties selected for a THC content of less than 0.2%. THC is one of the molecules present in the plant material. It is the only psychoactive Cannabinoid.

Textile hemp
Hemp, used for thousands of years, is a natural textile fiber with remarkable properties. It is antibacterial, antifungal, offers total protection against UV rays and has exceptional mechanical strength. Hemp garments are highly breathable, absorbing and wicking moisture to reduce odors and perspiration. What's more, they become softer with each wash, improving comfort over time. Hemp cultivation is environmentally friendly, requiring little water and no pesticides or herbicides. It also enriches the soil, increasing yields for subsequent crops. These characteristics make hemp an ecological and sustainable alternative in the textile industry.
Cosmetic hemp
Hemp, used for over 8,000 years, is renowned for its cosmetic benefits. Its oil, rich in essential fatty acids, notably omega 3 and 6, promotes skin elasticity and contributes to its balance. It has moisturizing, firming, decongesting, anti-aging and regulating properties, making it a precious ally for dry, sensitive skin or skin prone to conditions such as acne or eczema. What's more, its wealth of vitamins (A, B1, B3, B4, B6, E), minerals and proteins helps restore the skin's hydrolipidic barrier, protecting it from external aggressors. Its many virtues make it an essential ingredient in natural, responsible cosmetics.
Hemp for construction
Although little documented in ancient times, hemp made its real entry into modern construction history in 1986, thanks to Charles Rasetti, who developed hemp concrete by combining hemp chips and mineral binders. Since then, this natural material has enjoyed a worldwide boom, boosted by its many ecological and technical qualities. A high-performance thermal and acoustic insulator, hemp naturally regulates building temperature and humidity, while being fireproof, breathable and antifungal. Its structural flexibility, pest resistance, biodegradability and absence of toxic emissions make it an ideal ally for healthy, sustainable and eco-responsible construction. Today, it stands out as a strong symbol of the transition towards more environmentally-friendly housing and the well-being of its occupants.
Hemp
An industry with a future
As early as 1938, Popular Mechanics magazine heralded hemp as the "multi-billion dollar crop". Today, its positive ecological impact and superior technical properties make it a pillar of the green economy. Its economic potential lies in reclaiming farmland, diversifying crops, creating local jobs and developing a sustainable industry. It also helps reduce dependence on polluting materials such as plastics, cotton and oil. With changing legislation and growing environmental concerns, hemp could well regain its rightful place as a key resource for the future.
