Welcome to the innovative house building company, which is proud of building healthy, sustainable and energy efficient homes. We are a company dedicated to building and renovating homes using revolutionary natural building material - HEMP LIGHTWEIGHT CONCRETE “NEST Crete.” We can surely say that we are one of the most experienced companies in Europe. Our vision is to change the way of construction by offering homes that are not only beautiful, energy efficient and functional, but healthy for humans and environmentally friendly. Within ten years, we have implemented projects not only in Latvia, but also in Lithuania, Estonia, Denmark, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, France, Portugal, Austria.
During ten years, we have completed projects not only in Latvia, but also in Lithuania, Estonia, Denmark, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, France, Portugal, Austria.
The products we create are exported around the world: Europe, USA, Thailand, Australia.
We are confident that homes made of hemp lightweight concrete are the way forward for long-term sustainability and wellbeing.
Renewable resources are used to produce hemp lightweight concrete. It absorbs CO2, is for the environment and the human being friendly material. Easy to tilt and free from harmful substances. Constructing buildings of hemp lightweight concreteNEST Crete buildings are energy efficient vigil to A + + building parameters.
The house, with hemp lightweight concrete walls, has ideal living conditions as it has an antiallergenic, moisture-regulating microclimate and good air quality. Sustainable even for allergic and respiratory diseases.
When building houses with hemp lightweight concrete NEST Crete, it is possible to build a construction of almost any configuration, even with curved or rounded walls.
Hemp lightweight concrete “NEST Crete” is a 100% natural bio composite containing hemp shives, high calcium lime and the mineral additive “NEST Add”. No chemicals!
This long-lasting, energy-efficient building material improves the indoor microclimate by regulating moisture and provides an antiallergic environment.
Hemp lightweight concrete “NEST Crete” is one of the rare building materials that is CO2 negative. It can absorb more than 300,0 kg/m3 of carbon, does not generate waste during the construction process and is easily disposed of.
Only natural raw materials are used in the production of “NEST Crete” hemp lightweight concrete. Does not contain cement!
Hemp lightweight concrete “NEST Crete” is a porous material that very well absorbs sound, making it a good sound isolation.
The hydrated lime contained in the mixture is like a natural flame retardant. No additional material protection is required. Hemp concrete DOESN'T BURN. Its fire reaction class is - A2 (Bs1,d0).
The structure of the hemp lightweight “NEST Crete” is porous, the natural hydrated lime contained manages moisture perfectly. The material is “breathable.” Hemp lightweight concrete should not be coated with “non-breathing” material!
The “NEST Crete” hemp lightweight concrete is moisture-resistant, able to quickly absorb and release excess moisture. This quality provides a great microclimate in the premises.
The high alkaline calcium hydroxide contained in “NEST Crete” hemp lightweight concrete keeps the material from damaging and living in rodents, insects.
“NEST Crete” hemp lightweight concrete has excellent thermal resilience thanks to porosity and “breathing” capabilities, it's also an excellent heat regulator. The construction system allows the construction of seamless - monolithic walls, the construction of coverings, the construction of roofs, as well as the insulation of a monolithic existing building, which makes the building even more energy efficient.
Hardening of hemp lightweight “NEST Crete” - carbonisation is a natural process. The contained hydrated lime in contact with air by absorbing CO2 returns to its primary state of limestone. Thus, hemp lightweight concrete becomes limestone solid. Its life is measured in the hundreds of years.
Hemp lightweight concrete “NEST Crete” is an alkaline material. Alkaline prevents the material from damaging, it does not produce bacteria, it is not allergic. Does not contain VOC. This is even recommended for asthmatics and allergy people.
One m3 absorbs up to 300 kg of CO2. Lime in “NEST Crete” hemp lightweight concrete absorbs carbon when hardened. The process of CO2 absorption continues even after the material has hardened. The process reduces indoor carbon concentrations, making them healthier for humans.
Hemp lightweight “NEST Crete” is a light material, as it dries, its volumetric weight is 240 kg/m3.
There is a myth, the cost of building hemp lightweight concrete NEST Crete is very high. This is far from the case, construction costs are comparable to traditional or also, often, synthetic materials. But the result of what you'll get from a hemp lightweight concrete house is quite something else!
While hemp lightweight concrete NEST Crete is new to many, its use in construction is already measurable for centuries. It has proven itself to be a durable, safe material. Despite this, NEST Crete is laboratory tested and bearing the CE marking. It's fireproof. Material has B2 reaction to fire class.
With hemp lightweight concrete NEST Crete, you can realize almost any of your intentions or those of an architect. Using it not only in the construction of sins, but also in insulating floors, coverings or roofs, it is possible to build a house like a monolithic “cocoon,” without butt stitches. This technology provides additional energy efficiency and longevity. Of course, everything must be planned in this way, every redevelopment will be very labor intensive and very not recommended.
Hemp concrete hardening time is not fast but profound. When carbon is absorbed, it becomes harder and more durable, unlike other contemporary materials, which have very short service lives. NEst Crete do not age, it has no serving term. The building is long lasting and will serve several generations without requiring additional investments.
Houses built with hemp lightweight concrete NEST Crete does not require special extra care or maintenance.
