Founded in 2014, PureHemp Technology has been advancing new technologies to utilize the whole hemp plant. After significant advances making hemp pulp and paper, PureHemp Pulp & Paper is a newly-formed spin-off company. At the Southern Hemp Expo, Ed will be discussing how a new line of hemp-based pulp and paper products are entering national and international markets. In addition to hemp pulp and paper products, PureHemp has begun to produce lactic acid from 100% hemp stalks on a laboratory scale. With proper funding, the new spin-off company, Pure BioPlastics, Inc. will scale up its patent pending and economically viable hemp-to-PLA (poly lactic acid) technology.
