Our services

Strategic advisory

We help companies from a wide range of industries adopt hemp in their existing production or supply chains to lower their carbon footprint.

Research and Development

We assess hemp’s environmental benefits and run research projects on CO2 sequestration and soil recultivation.

Innovation

We provide support to designers, architects, research organizations and universities on material and product development based on hemp.

Our Pillars

We look at industrial hemp through a lens of its environmental added value and the business potential it represents. This view is divided into three foundational pillars, essentially the most valuable aspects that a sustainable industrial crop, such as hemp, can offer for the environment, economy and ultimately- the climate.

Our current projects:

Strategic development of the hemp industry in the Czech Republic

Industrial hemp for developing countries: collaboration with People in Need
