HempFlax Bv completed the last step in the oat processing process by planting the hennep in four square bales ready for transport and processing in the factory.

HempFlax in Oude Pekela (NL) and Sebes (RO) focuses on the production and processing of sustainable resources, semi-finished and finished products made from ecologically grown fibre hemp and flax. By professionally improving the development and innovation of renewable natural fibre products, HempFlax stands at the outset of a sustainable industrial chain. This industrial production chain has its origins in sustainable agriculture. Through contract farming with crop farmers in the Netherlands and Germany HempFlax annually obtains fresh natural fibre, particularly fibre hemp. By marketing renewable resources HempFlax is a leader of this innovative industrial development. Its main target is to produce renewable resources for industrial finished products and consumer goods. It is with vision and innovative vigour that HempFlax adds content to the concept of agrification in the Netherlands. By making available renewable resources environmentally damaging synthetic fibres manufactured from fossil resources – such as nylon and plastics – can be replaced by fibres from renewable resources. By producing hemp wood for paper, construction material, saw dust and many other environmentally damaging consumer goods, HempFlax also discourages unnecessary logging and deforestation. HempFlax pays heed to distress signals indicating a decline in the quality of nature on Earth.
