Crafted from natural materials, including hemp blocks, these properties represent a forward-thinking approach to modern building. Each home is equipped with solar panels and advanced air source heat pump systems, enabling residents to live entirely on 100% green energy.

The result is a new standard in housing – designed not just to meet today’s environmental expectations, but to exceed them, moving confidently toward a future of better-than-zero-carbon living.

Improved Thermal Efficiency, Independently Verified

Independent testing, confirmed by our partners at Senini, has shown that our hemp blocks now achieve an impressive thermal conductivity of 0.044 W/m·K.

This enhanced performance means that builders, architects, and homeowners can now enjoy better insulation from a thinner wall — reducing both material use and overall construction costs. In other words, less really is more.

Why ‘Less’ Means More for Your Building Project

• Lower build costs & reduced embodied carbon through the use of less raw material
• Thinner wall construction, freeing up valuable internal floor space
• Superior insulation performance, reducing energy use and improving comfort all year round

This breakthrough reinforces The Hemp Block Company’s position as a UK leader in eco-friendly, high-performance hempcrete block supply — allowing low-impact building solutions that don’t compromise on quality or sustainability.
