This hemp hurd is processed in a state of the art decortication facility one of the best in the country which allow us to have consistent particle size, fiber to hurd content and moisture ratio. Hemp hurds are woody in texture and are primarily used in non-woven items. Hemp hurd has a great absorbency rate and resistance to mold, mildew and other insect pests. This hemp hurd can be used as animal bedding for horses, small animals such as rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters and in poultry farms.

Need help determining how much Hurd you need?
This is a standard equation you can use to determine how much hemp hurd is needed when making a 12'' thick wall.
Wall x Height of wall = Total square footage.
Take the number and divide by 4.5 to get the total number of 15kg (33lbs) bales you'll need for a 12'' wall.
Example:
Average square footage of a house is 2,500 with a 9 foot ceiling (2.7m). less 25% for windows and doors = 1,350 cubic feet.
Now divide 1,350 by 4.5 and that equals the number of bales/bags needed = 300 bales/bags in this case. (9,900lbs)
