Only Gmund Paper can do it: 100% European hemp becomes a sensationally ecological and creative paper<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After having developed a hemp paper containing up to 50% cannabis pulp from European cultivation (supplemented by virgin fiber pulp) for its Bio Cycle collection, Gmund Paper has now succeeded in producing a paper made from 100% cannabis pulp. Hemp\u2019s long fibers, which are a challenge for paper production, make this innovative paper both strong in structure and wonderfully soft to the touch. The paper\u2019s surface is wild and cloudy \u2013 pure nature. The collection also includes Gmund Hanf 50%, which contains recycled paper fibers, and Gmund Hanf 10%, which is made from pure pulp.

The plant<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hemp (Cannabis) is a genus in the hemp family. Hemp numbers among the first plants utilized by humankind. The plant is popular as a renewable resource because it is problem-free to cultivate and completely usable. No herbicides are needed because the plants completely shade the ground after only a few days, so no weeds can find light. Hemp is also extremely pest resistant, requires little care and produces more biomass than any other domestic crop. Hemp is extremely versatile in its commercial applications and is appreciated for its high durability, environmental compatibility and low energy footprint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hemp paper<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hemp was used for making paper very early in the history of civilization. Until 1883, between 75% and 90% of the paper produced worldwide was made with hemp fibers. This was also the case with the Gutenberg Bible, for example. After the cultivation of hemp was prohibited in many countries, hemp paper disappeared from the scene. In the meantime, the cultivation of commercial hemp has been permitted again in large parts of Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
