What is SHEMP™?
SHEMP™ delivers a new generation of natural fiber blended yarn that addresses the Call-To-Action for alternative fibers both by consumers and our planet. We want to play a part in revitalizing the textile industry. The inconvenient truth is that this industry is one of the world’s dirtiest, second to the oil industry. We don’t want to think where we’ll be in 30 years if textiles continue to wreak havoc on our environment. Instead, we’re imagining a world where all textiles are sustainably produced – and that starts with the yarn needed to create them.
today’s consumers want
products that are eco-friendly
wool and hemp are sustainable
and environmentally sound
Wool
Soft, warm, and breathable, making it one of the most comfortable fibers to wear.
Easy to dye, biodegradable, and incredibly durable.
The only things that go into its production are sunlight and grass, and its only byproducts come from sheep grazing in pastures.
Hemp
Grows 50% faster than cotton, needs half as much water, and produces fiber that is durable, versatile, and sustainable
Nourishes the soil it grows in, removes carbon from the atmosphere, and uses less land than cotton
While hemp is in the cannabis family, it is not the same as marijuana or CBD.
From sunlit fields to green pastures,
SHEMP™ is good for you and the planet.
The SHEMP story continues, and you can be an important part of its future.
