The International Hemp Building Association (IHBA)[1] is the largest association internationally in this sector. Members and partners of the association include architects, builders, consultants, designers, the European Industrial Hemp Association (EIHA), the Hemp Industries Association and manufacturers. A non-profit association founded in 2009 by director Steve Allin author and hemp building consultant,[2] [3]the association globally promotes and supports the production and use of all hemp based construction materials and their by-products in a sustainable and bio-regional manner.[4]
In April 2011 professionals in the hemp building industry from around the globe were interviewed for the documentary Bringing It Home [5] at the association’s 2nd International Hemp Building Symposium, in Granada, Spain. The IHBA cooperated with the technology department of engineering sciences of Uppsala University in Sweden in 2014 on research into a study on the potential of hemp buildings in different climates.
