Exclusive hemp paper for the book “H is for Hemp”<\/strong><\/p>\n The paper was developed exclusively for printing the book “H is for HEMP”, an innovative hemp encyclopedia by photographer and author Maren Krings<\/a>. “With my worldwide photo documentation and research on hemp, I want to encourage people to leave their comfort zone and get involved in proactive problem solving of our socio-ecological crisis. Finding a hemp paper to print my book was part of my commitment to make my own work more sustainable and to use hemp wherever possible. Hahnem\u00fchle’s hemp paper exceeded my expectations, offering a beautiful tactile and sensory experience and giving the book a fresh and completely new look. At the same time, it closes the loop of protecting native forests and finding alternative raw materials for paper making” says photographer and Climate Impact Storyteller Maren Krings.<\/p>\n Like all paper grades the new Hemp paper is produced with pure spring water which Hahnem\u00fchle is using since it\u00b4s founding days at the company\u00b4s sole production facility in a natural reserve. The water is fed into the nearby river after a largely closed paper machine cycle \u2013 free from chemical cleaning agents, biocides or preservatives. The energy used for manufacturing comes exclusively from 100% renewable sources.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”20386″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”right” onclick=”img_link_large” img_link_target=”_blank”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]A hemp paper for high-speed inkjet, analogue offset and other flexible digital printing systems<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Hahnem\u00fchle Hemp digital printing paper features an its inimitable structure given by wool felts directly in the production process, is acid-free, therefore highly resistant to ageing and vegan.
