Why hemp instead of tree pulp
Hemp Paper Company's 70 GSM hemp paper bags are approximately 2× stronger than tree paper bags of the same weight, hold up to 20 pounds, and are backyard compostable.
Industrial hemp reaches harvest in about 120 days; a tree grown for pulp takes decades. Every 1,000 Hemp Paper Company hemp paper bags keeps approximately one tree standing. The fiber-by-fiber comparison is in Hemp 101.
Certification you can check yourself
Hemp Paper Company's hemp paper bags are USDA Certified Biobased at 100% biobased content, verified by ASTM D6866 radiocarbon testing rather than self-declared. The listing sits in the federal USDA BioPreferred catalog, where any buyer can open and read it.
