Applications
DHC Hemp Panels are for interior uses, cladding, partition walls and ceiling surfaces. The panels can provide fire protection, sound insulation and moisture regulation.
Using DHC Hemp Panels
DHC’s Hemp Panels can be attached to existing walls/ceilings by glueing or screwing into studs. The panels are laid in a bond (as pictured below). When screwing to studs it’s suggested to use 9 attachment points on walls and 12 for ceilings. The screws should be flush, corners and edges should be pre-drilled. After the wall/or ceiling are fully assembled with the hemp panels place strips of fiberglass mesh tape on the joints and apply a thin layer of fine plaster mortar. Now a thin layer, 1/8” of fine plaster can be applied over the entire surface of the hemp boards. Hemp panels can be cut with a hand saw, circular saw or band saw.

Hempcrete blocks need to be placed away from any risk of rising damp. If there is risk, the initial blocks need to be placed on a waterproof membrane that elevates it to 3/4-1” a long the length of the Hempcrete Block. If there is not a risk of rising damp the Hempcrete block can be bedded on a concrete slab or affixed to a wooden/OSB floor with an adhesive construction foam. The hempcrete blocks are bonded with an 1/8” of the bonding mortar. The mortar can applied using a bonding comb, notched or plain trowel or any tool that the mortar can be applied quickly and efficiently to the block
