HARDWOOD FLOORING FROM HEMP? TENNESSEE FIRM SAYS YES.

24 Feb HARDWOOD FLOORING FROM HEMP? TENNESSEE FIRM SAYS YES.

For nearly 12 months I’ve been All In with the world of Industrial Hemp:

• Attending conferences, expos and events,
• Speaking as a member of Panel Discussions,
• Moderating Panel Discussions,
• Writing articles & social media posts, and
• Advising businesses and clients.

And the reason I’m All In with Industrial Hemp (versus marijuana) has less to do with the psychoactive qualities of the THC levels found in Mary Jane and more to do with the apparent multitude of other non-medicinal / non-medical uses for Cannabis as Industrial Hemp.

So … imagine my shock today when I learn that a family owned flooring company in Tennessee claims it has figured out how to create a Hardwood Flooring product from stalks of hemp.

Yeah, Hemp-based Hardwood Flooring. Needless to say, I was “floored” at the very idea (pun intended).

Anyway … there’s absolutely ZERO about this product (or even the idea) on the Tennessee Wood Flooring website (although there is a teensy bit of info on the company’s Facebook page).

But if this company has figured out how to do this, it’s a Really Big Deal.

Here’s a link to a nearly two-minute news segment run late last week by Knoxville TV station, WBIR: https://www.wbir.com/article/news/local/sevierville-company-first-in-the-world-to-produce-hemp-hardwood-flooring/51-db793bfe-3387-4c37-8331-51f90c822b8b.

So what are your thoughts about this?
