Processing Information
  • Hemp bast and hurd fiber are produced through decortication, the process where a hemp stalk is physically separated and cleaned. IND HEMP processing line is capable of handling up to 5 tons of raw stalk per hour.
  • The process starts by separating the outer bast fiber from the inner woody core of the stalk. The fiber is then cleaned and baled in preparation for a variety of uses.
