“And, as Hemptown commercializes CRAILAR(TM), its new biotech enzyme fiber process reducing the cost to produce hemp fiber, the opportunities for licensing and further growth are immense. We expect CRAILAR to enable manufacturers to profit from this eco-friendly production while driving Hemptown revenue," she added.
Hemptown Clothing Inc was founded in 1995 in response to the growing demand for environmentally friendly, socially responsible clothing. It is developing a revolutionary biotech enzyme fiber process named CRAILAR(TM) in collaboration with Canada's National Research Council and Alberta Research Council.
In its ten year history, Hemptown has shipped more than 500,000 garments reducing chemical use by 86,634 pounds and saving 452,232,264 gallons of fresh water.
