PROJECT
In 2013 the Interreg IVb project ‘Grow2Build’ was
launched. The objective of the project is to support the
supply chain of flax and hemp building materials from production of raw material to the production and implementation of end products.
To this end, 11 organisations from Belgium, France, the
UK, Germany and the Netherlands have formed a consortium with a wealth of expertise in construction and biobased building materials. The consortium aims to contribute to the integration of hemp and flax in the construction
industry and to improve the product value chain. For more information about the project and partners
please visit: www.grow2build.eu.
