NEW BRUNSWICK – A Canadian cabinet manufacturer is among the first in the world to make cabinets from HempWood. “Hemp is substantially more environmentally-sustainable when compared to traditional hardwood species more commonly used in building materials,” says Eastland Group of Companies president Karim Bhibah. The company has been making kitchen cabinets for more than 50 years. …Bhibah recently showcased the cabinets at the Atlantic Building Supplies Dealers Association tradeshow in Halifax, Nova Scotia March 11-12, and is currently pursuing exclusive licensing to press HempWood in Canada. Eastland partnered with Fibonacci, the first company in the world to process hemp into wood. Fibonacci’s 15,600-square-feet factory officially opened for business in Kentucky last August.
