Sustainability

Good Hemp Ingredients, founded in 1999, is a world leading hemp seed ingredient producer devoted to Quality, Sustainability and Innovation.

  • Hemp can be grown without the use of pesticides or fungicides.
  • Hemp is suitable for cultivation near surface water.
  • Hemp is in the top 5 out of 23 crops for biodiversity friendliness, performing better than all major crops such as wheat, maize or rapeseed (Montford and Small, 1999).
  • Hemp is an excellent carbon sequester: One hectare of industrial hemp can absorb 15 tonnes of CO2 per hectare.
  • Hemp grows rapidly making it one of the fastest CO2-to-biomass conversion tools available, more efficient than agro-forestry.
  • Hemp restores soil health. It is a valuable break crop in rotations and has significant benefits for follow-on crops.

At Good Hemp we continually strive to find ways to improve the sustainability of our ingredients, our manufacturing processes and site. We are working towards being part of the Certified B Corporation movement, continually finding ways to improve our efficiency and lessen our carbon footprint throuhgh every part of the business.
