HempWood
HempWood begins with sustainable, local agriculture in western Kentucky, where manufacturing is based. Hemp stalks are dried, pressed, and baked with a soy-based formaldehyde-free adhesive to create a block of HempWood lumber. From this block, HempWood can be turned into flooring, paneling, cabinets, tabletops, and more. HempWood Flooring is non-toxic, high-performance, and durable enough for homes and public spaces alike. Our panels and lumber products provide quality eco-friendly alternatives to traditional building materials.
Greg Wilson, an industry veteran with 20 years of experience in flooring, created HempWood after working with bamboo flooring in China. Using the Fibonacci sequence, he developed a process for creating a material that is healthier and more sustainable than traditional hardwood.
HempWood’s innovative zero-VOC formula and carbon negative manufacturing process creates huge opportunities for green building and creating healthier indoor spaces. Made without formaldehyde or other toxic chemicals, HempWood can help improve indoor air quality since it doesn’t off-gas these dangerous substances. Because of this unique benefit, universities and public schools have turned to HempWood to improve indoor environments for students and educators alike.
Our carbon negative manufacturing process uses biowaste from the production of HempWood to generate energy for the plant. Along with hemp’s superior carbon sequestering properties, this allows HempWood to reduce embodied carbon in built environments at a higher rate than hardwood. HempWood’s health and sustainability benefits can also help architects and designers achieve certifications like LEED and BREEAM.
HempWood’s vision is to create a brighter future for our planet and people by introducing non-toxic building materials with a carbon-negative footprint.

Delphis Eco
Kind to the environment without compromising on quality, Delphis Eco makes for the ultimate sustainable swap. A cleaning product range derived from renewable plant-based ingredients, the brand was founded as a response to the discovery that traditional household cleaners are causing severe harm to both people and the planet.
From multi-purpose products to room-material-and issue-specific products formulated for high-performance, eco-friendly cleaning, the entire range is biodegradable, toxin-free, and vegan. Powerful and effective, their products have become a staple for the professional cleaning industry – early on, Delphis Eco succeeded in overturning the view that eco cleaning products did not clean as well as their mainstream, chemically-loaded competitors.
What’s more, every aspect of the Delphis Eco packaging is recyclable, with the brand’s packaging being the first in the UK to be made from 100% recycled plastic milk bottles. By following a circular economy approach, Delphis Eco guarantees that their products’ environmental impact is significantly reduced in comparison to similar products on the market.
