Applications of hemp-based compounds
In plastic manufacturing, the processing window can limit the types of materials that can be used as carriers for hemp-based compounds. We combine hemp fibres with both virgin and recycled polyolefins and biopolymers to create compounds that can be used in plastic conversion processes like injection moulding, extrusion, and 3D printing.
