IndiNature innovates and manufactures bio-based construction materials, and from October 2022 established the first high-capacity natural fibre insulation production line in the UK at the IndiNature Mill at Jedburgh in the Scottish Borders.
IndiNature have innovatively created an energy efficiency solution that puts sustainability at the heart of production. Come along to a tour of IndiNature’s mill to hear how the traditional crop of hemp is being used to make natural fibre insulations that capture a net amount of carbon, resulting in zero waste but which is also healthy for buildings, occupants and installers.
From January 2024, ‘IndiTherm’ became the first industrial hemp insulation to hold a BBA Agrément certificate. The next product innovations were IndiSilence, an acoustic insulation for internal partition walls and floors, and IndiBreathe, one of the most ‘breathable’ vapour open insulations available, which are ideal for historic buildings and solid wall insultation. IndiBreathe will be launching in Autumn 2024.
The event will also allow members to hear how locally grown hemp is being grown as a carbon crop and learn how to get involved in the SAC pilot being run in the Scottish Borders.
The Walk & Talk will include:
- A tour around the mill to see the operation in full swing
- A chance to discuss the operation and products
- Discuss how hemp insultation is used, including use in traditional buildings
- Hear about the SAC led Industrial Hemp Trials and how to get involved
Details of the full agenda will to be confirmed very shortly.
