Hemp Fabric Lab Information

Who We Are Hemp Fabric Lab (HFL) is a one-stop shop for designers and creators to get their fix of sustainable fabrics with hemp as a core material. The idea for HFL came about because we saw a growing need for eco-friendly fabrics and lack of easy accessibility to them. Seeing that we were already working with one of nature’s best offering- Hemp, we decided that more people should get to experience it too. In the process, we also realised how cumbersome fabric shopping can be. So we focused on the two problems that designers face the most: minimum order quantities (MOQs) and availability of natural fabrics. At HFL we don’t like to discuss quantities, rather our focus is on slow fashion and encouraging designers to create using fabrics that don’t harm the environment. Our Story The idea for HFL was formulated at Bombay Hemp Company (BOHECO)- India’s premier industrial and medicinal cannabis company with a desire to promote hemp textiles because of its numerous benefits to the environment and its incredible properties. BOHECO is an agro-based enterprise re-imagining the future of Indian agriculture and sustainable living with hemp as its lens. The goal is to educate and advocate for industrial hemp, promote its benefits to society and assist local farmers in cultivating the crop by providing the best seeds and practices in cultivation techniques for poverty alleviation and rural development. BOHECO’s grand vision and goal is to lay the foundation for a successful national eco-system which harnesses the greatest industrial & medicinal value out of hemp. Our Vision Our vision is to be the frontrunners in the Indian hemp textile industry and a name to reckon with when people think of hemp fabric. Our Mission Being a product of BOHECO, Hemp Fabric Lab’s core mission is to educate and encourage brands, designers and consumers to adopt hemp and banish any myths surrounding it.
