Our Regenerative Future Together

Today, our hemp fiber is grown in Michigan and 6 other states. We also purchase bales of hemp off the spot market through a reliable QA / QC process.

Companies have used Heartland's materials as additives in plastic, rubber, foam, asphalt, concrete, paper, and ceramic. Every day we get new ideas and projects in our inbox. Reach out to see if your application is a fit.

We work with brands and their suppliers to embed natural fibers into their supply chain to reduce cost, weight, and carbon footprint without any retooling costs.

Heartland's first USDA grant is a 3-year program called 'Hemp4Soil' that aims to study industrial hemp, regenerative agriculture, and carbon sequestration.

We are completing an LCA with Presidio, one of the top sustainability graduate programs in the world. This LCA, alongside soil-carbon data, will quantify how carbon-negative our materials are.

Heartland is partnering with global brands and suppliers to support local farming and local manufacturing. We are open to strategic partnerships when and where it makes sense.

Today, our go-to high-performance natural fiber is industrial hemp. As time and locations expand, we will integrate other materials into our products.

Potentially. Reach out via the For Farmers page so a member of our team can connect with you.

The USDA biopreferred program is for government-mandated purchasing. Since our materials are certified, our customers can apply for biopreferred contracts (provided our materials make up more than 22.5% of the compound).

The 5th industrial revolution is about embedding sustainability throughout the value chain.

Typically, with bio-based materials, there is a sacrifice that brands and suppliers make. Sustainability without compromise is about maintaining performance properties without sacrificing strength, weight, or price.

Sustainable Material Innovation (SMI) focuses on the development of lower-carbon-footprint materials, component parts, and end products.

By themselves, hemp fibers are compostable and biodegradable. The compostability of plastic, however, will always depend on the resin — not on the additive.

Our additives can be picked up by infrared sensors currently being used in Material Recovery Facilities (MRFs) and other recycling facilities.

Not yet. Our USDA program is creating unprecedented insights specifically for agriculture-focused carbon data. These data points will be used to create America's leading agriculture carbon-credit market. Reach out to our team if you are interested in carbon credits.
