Hempcrete Workshop Lays Foundation to Build Industry and Community

This week’s podcast takes us to a hempcrete workshop in Barto, Pennsylvania.

That’s where Cameron McIntosh of Americhanvre Cast-Hemp hosted a four-day hands-on training session to teach the basics of the spray-applied method of hempcrete installation using the Ereasy system.

With a total of 14 participants and four assistant instructors, he said, “this is our single biggest training.”

Attendees traveled from around the country and the world, including Texas, North Carolina, Minnesota, California, and British Columbia.

Damien Baumer, who developed the Ereasy Spray-Applied system in 2014, traveled from his village in France to help McIntosh with the training.

Baumer said his system is not in wide use in France, but is used in many other European countries, and now has a strong footprint in America, thanks to McIntosh.
