Dick champions hempcrete as a viable, carbon-conscious alternative for modern construction at Sydney Build Expo ‘25
Our Founding Director, Dick Clarke, was honoured to speak at this year’s Sydney Build Expo about one of his greatest passions - hempcrete!
The panel discussion—“Why Low Carbon Materials Matter Even More in a World Gone Mad”—dives deep into hempcrete as a viable, carbon-conscious alternative for modern construction.
In case you missed it, our friend Jeremy Thomas over at Environmentarian.au filmed the discussion and has published it for viewing.
What you’ll learn in this video:
- What is hempcrete and how it stores carbon during and after construction
- The design challenges and flexibility of hempcrete in architectural planning
- Practical considerations on site, including trades adoption and system design
- Why stigma and assumptions around hemp in building are being rapidly dismantled
