About Hemp Rope

Hemp - Is a term reserved mainly for low tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) strains of the plant Cannabis sativa. Of the approximately 2000 cannabis plants varieties known, about 90% contain only low-grade THC and are most useful for their fibre, seeds and medicinal or psychoactive oils. Scholars believe that hemp is humankind's oldest cloth and hemp-limestone composites have been found in ancient Roman architecture. In modern times hemp is used for industrial purposes including paper, textiles, clothing, body products, rope, twine,health food and bio-fuel. Hemp is thus legally grown in many countries across the world including Spain, China, Japan, Korea, France, North Africa, Ireland and UK.
