Скачать или смотреть Hemp Plastic in Building + more, Guest Paul Benhaim, Hemp Building Podcast Host Jeremy Thomas

Welcome to the the Hemp Building Podcast, hosted by Jeremy Thomas of Environmentarian.au with guest Paul Benhaim of the Hemp Plastic Company.
Our guest is Paul Benhaim, founder of The Hemp Plastic Company and a pioneer of the modern hemp industry. Paul’s name is synonymous with hemp innovation — from launching one of Europe’s first hemp foods to tackling the global plastic crisis through plant-based alternatives.

In this episode, we explore:
The origins of Paul’s hemp journey — from a chance encounter in the Himalayas to launching a hemp snack brand in Wales
How plastic became a target problem to solve… and why hemp offers a credible solution
Early experiments with hemp plastic: Frisbees, CD cases, and prototypes in Germany
The legal and technical roadblocks in replacing traditional plastic
The real potential of hemp-based bioplastics in building — including interior elements like light fittings, panels, and trims
And why building with hemp is about more than just the walls — it's a systems conversation
Paul also drops some big-picture insights on legacy, responsibility, and why it's not enough to just “throw hemp into a building and expect magic to happen.”
Whether you're an architect, designer, builder, or just hemp-curious — this conversation helps unpack how innovation and integrity are critical in reshaping the built environment.
