“The industrial hemp market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 34% from USD 4.6 billion in 2019 to USD 26.6 billion by 2025”

By type, the hemp fiber segment is expected to dominate the market. Currently Hemp fiber is most commonly used in the textile and pulp and paper industry, due to its long and robust fibers as compared to cotton. We see the list of industrial applications expanding rapidly because of hemp's unparalleled versatility as a biomaterial thanks to its optimal strength-to-weight ratio.

Being a renewable source material, its application has been increasing in many diverse industries such as construction, animal bedding, agriculture, furniture, automobile and airline parts. Additionally its usage can replace biofuels and bioplastics in the coming years.

Industry Challenges

Reviving an agronomic industry like hemp, absent from large-scale U.S. cultivation for nearly a century, poses significant challenges despite its transformative potential. The supply chain faces persistent instability, marked by a scarcity of reliable seed genetics, evolving agronomic best practices, limited stable processing and off-take partners, and nascent end-use markets still in development.
