► Industrial/medicinal hemp & marijuana belongs to the same genus and
species, but industrial hemp is different from marijuana as it has no
psychoactive effects hence it is not a controlled substance.

hemp flourished in Europe and was an
important agriculture crop. Almost all ship
sails and almost all rigging, ropes, nets, flags
up to the uniforms of the sailors were made of
hemp due to the tear and wet strength of
the fibre.
The origin and history of industrial hemp

Hemp is a multi-purpose crop yielding
► Seeds( protein & oil)
► Fibers ( textiles and other products)
► Bio-active chemicals for a number of
uses and markets.
Hemp a multipurpose crop with many valuable
products

Industrial hemp value chain products

Viable hemp value chain “the key” to success
VIABLE HEMP VALUE-CHAIN is the key to meet increasing
demand for various products that can be made such as..
► Decorticated hemp fiber.
► hemp fiber based fabrics.
► Hemp seeds (seeds/seed oil for human & Poultry consumption).
► Cannabidiol (CBD) oil.
► Hempcrete. ( Hemp based Bricks)
► Hemp based Bio-plastic.
► Hemp based Paper products.
► Phytoremediation.
► Biodiesel and alcohol.

► The first step towards any high-value hemp
product is decortication.
► Is removal of tough woody interior (the hurd
material), from the softer, fibrous exterior
(Bast Fiber) of the stalk.
► Decortication generates both hurd as well as
bast materials (Bast Fiber). Each is useful,
but with different applications.
Decorticated hemp fiber the first step.

Potential
uses of
Hemp
Value added products from hemp

Fabrics made of hemp fibers convince
with their unique quality – they are
thermoactive,strong, antistatic,
antibacterial, provide a good UV
protection and are quick-drying.
Therefore, they are perfect for all kinds of
clothing and underwear but also for
towels, bed-clothing etc.
Hemp fiber fabrics Demand on rise

► Seed: Source for hemp oil or hemp protein.
► Seed: Contains all eight essential amino acids.
► Seed Oil: Highly valued for skincare.
► Seed Oil: High % of unsaturated fatty acids(80%).
► Seed Oil:Perfect omega 6 to omega 3(3:1) Ratio.
► Seed cake: Valuable feed material.
Hemp seeds (seeds and seed oil for human
consumption).
Hemp seed and seed oil has a rising demand across
the globe with canada as the leading supplier.

Hemp derieved Cannabidiol (CBD) oil
Hemp CBD oil (cannabidiol ) is the most
fastest growing medicinal/ food /
nutraceutical product around the globe with
china leading and USA following the supply
chain. The global CBD market was worth
USD 1.04 billion in 2018 and is forecasted to
reach USD 16.32 billion by 2026, growing at

Hempcrete or Hemplime is bio-composite material,
a mixture of hemp hurds (shives) and lime used as a
material for construction and insulation
Hemp Fibre based “Hempcrete”.
Ecofriendly
Fireproof
Breathable
Exellent Acoustic & Thermal insulation.

Hemp is poised to
become an immense
new source of
sustainable
industrial
Bioplastics.
Hemp based “Bio-plastic”.

Hemp makes a premium candidate for
phytoremediation due to high biomass,
long roots and a short life cycle. Hemp
also has a high capability to absorb and
accumulate heavy metals (HMs) lead
(Pb), nickel (Ni), cadmium (Cd), zinc
(Zn), and chromium.

Thanks to government support
and a long tradition,
China has quietly become
a superpower in the
plant's production and research.

► In 2017, Chinese hemp sales totaled $1.1 billion (USD), approaching
1/3 of the $3.1 billion global market, with sales forecasted to grow to
$1.5 billion (up 36%) by 2020
► In 2017, textiles accounted for about 3/4 of China's overall sales of
$823 million (USD).
► Hemp-derived CBD accounted for Chinese sales of $53 million (USD) in
2017 but is forecasted to more than quadruple (by 4.3x, to $228
million) by 2020.
► Demand for CBD products in both Japan and South Korea – countries
with high relative spending for wellness and cosmetics – could further
catalyze demand for China's hemp-derived CBD.

Plantations are flourishing
thanks to Chinese-developed
hybrid species that have not
just survived but thrived in the
country’s disparate
environments
