      Yes, Hempcrete is resistant to fire, mold, and pest. In contrast, unlike other resistant building materials, this product is free of high chemical properties because there are no volatile compounds in its composition. It’s eco-friendly and breathable, providing residents a “healthier home” since being impervious to pests, fungi, or –as mentioned above- pests.

      What makes hempcrete fireproof is certain added ingredients and they have to be mixed correctly. If not then no its not fireproof.

      Hempcrete is considered to be more fireproof than other types of insulation. Hempcrete is already widely accepted as a fire-resistant material. They offer up to two hours of resistance to fire, depending on the thickness of hempcrete. It is because hempcrete doesn’t emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that make it fireproof.

      Yes is absolutely is. Wouldn’t make for a great alternative to concrete if it caught on fire right?

      Yes! There is a video online of a man taking a blow-torch to a hempcrete wall–it becomes charred, but doesn’t catch fire! Some studies show that hempcrete can withstand up to two hours of being subjected to fire!

      I honestly do not know. My cousin, though, is a contractor and recently was tasked with building someone a hemp house.
      He said he and his boss tried to light some of the Hempcrete on Fire (just using their lighters and such) and said it would not catch.
