In this episode of the Hemp Build Podcast, host Jean Lotus is joined by Hempitecture co-founder Tommy Gibbons to talk building science about why hemp-based fiber batt insulation is a high performance choice for architects and homeowners.
In this episode, you'll learn why hemp insulation holds heat longer and keeps indoor temperatures steadier, how it absorbs and releases moisture to help keep walls dry and mold-free, and how it's treated and tested for fire safety. You'll also hear why hemp stores more carbon than it takes to make. Tommy shares stories from real job sites, talks honestly about cost, and explains what to ask for if you're planning to build or renovate with natural materials.
