COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL HEMP
Carpet
Industrial hemp may also have potential for use in the carpet industry. A blend
of industrial hemp and wool fibres can produce a carpet that retains the durability
of wool carpet, but produces an even softer and more health promoting carpet
than a pure wool carpet (Stinett, 1998a).
Industrial hemp fibre is currently being used by a Georgia company in the carpet
industry, Earthweave, to produce a hemp and wool blend carpet (Stinett, 1998a).
