Welcome to Hemp Plastic. How industrial hemp is made - production process, making, history, used, processing, parts, components, steps, product, industry, machine, History, Raw Materials. Background Hemp is a distinct variety of the plant species Cannabis sativa L. That grows to a height anywhere from 4-15 ft (1.2-4.5 m) and up to 0.75 in (2 cm) in diameter. The plant consists of an inner layer called the pith surrounded by woody core fiber, which is often referred as hurds. Bast fibers form the outer layer.

The primary bast fiber is attached to the core fiber by pectin—a glue-like substance. The primary fibers are used for textiles, cordage, and fine paper products. Due to the similar leaf shape, hemp is frequently confused with marijuana, another cannabis plant. Canada is one country that has legalized hemp, though with certain restrictions. Farmers who grow hemp claim it is a great rotation crop and can be substituted for almost any harvest. Advocates of hemp claim that it can be used in 25,000 different products, from clothing to food to toiletries. Currently 32 countries, including Canada, Great Britain, France, and China, allow farmers to grow industrial hemp.
