Organic Hemp Shells
Hemp shells come from the de-hulling of hemp whole seeds.
The protein content of the shells is up to 15% and the fiber content is up to 60%. The hemp shells have a neutral flavour but pack a nice crunch! The shells are mostly milled and used in cooking. After milling the shells, the product is widely known as hemp fibre.
The product consist of dietary fibres and are therefore widely used as a food additive mainly to help with digestion issues among other things.
Hemp shells are also very popular among milk producers. They’re being used as a source of fiber to give the animals a healthy and necessary wholesome food.

“We are responsible for the whole chain from growing hemp until our produce hits your table”
(the well-kept secret behind our outrageously high quality)
Quality
We test regularly. We actually even make the first tests of the soil where we plan to grow hemp. Laboratory tests are a daily routine for us, our main goal is to keep the quality as high as possible. That is the only way for us to have successful business relations with demanding customers like baby food manufacturer Hipp. Thanks to our strict quality assurance department, our customers are never disappointed; once we enter a business relationship, it’s unlikely to end because we’re the ones that continue to raise our standards beyond what our competition can offer.
Land
More than 22% of the land in Estonia is organic. We hold fourth place in urban air quality in the world (we know how to care for our environment). Thanks to the clean fresh air and soil our farmers are able to grow the best quality hemp without breaking a sweat. Our farmers grow hemp in more than 4000 ha of land yearly, and keep increasing the size of the fields. Estonia is the 2nd largest hemp grower in Europe.
Raw materials
We are a co-operation of the biggest hemp farmers in Estonia. Since our
experienced farmers have been growing hemp for decades, we have the assurance of raw materials. Simply because they know what they’re doing. That makes our production plans much easier, and we don’t have to put a lot of effort in finding raw materials to process in our factory.
