The separated bast fiber can be degummed and cottonized for use in textiles and other applications.
Base and Hurd can be used in a wide range of applications such as composites, insulations, fuel and textiles.
It is with great pride that we would like to announce a milestone in ribbon decortication. No other machinery in the world is able to compare with the quality of ribbon that we have been able to produce. Testing has been proven successful on field-retted, fresh & dry stalks. With the latest ongoing challenge obtaining
With the 2019 season drawing to a close, PAMI was unable to complete testing of their double-cut hemp harvestor due to an unseasonably early snowfall in Manitoba. Having learned not to put all our eggs in one basket, Canfiber moved ahead to build its own harvestor in case of such a setback. Unfortunately, it was
Canfiber has completed testing of its M7 prototype & is has begun upgrades to allow validation testing for the 2019 season. Are you an engineer looking for new bio-based fibres to use for your packaging or product? We anticipate a Dec. 2020 delivery of up to 1.6 milion tonnes of lightly retted, golden colored filaments
Through slow & meticulous research, RD tech has been proven to work best on lightly retted crops cut 2″ above the ground. Ideal specimens are sown at a rate of 300 seeds per sq. metre dual purpose (seed/fiber) variety. Exceptional peeling has been recorded on X-59, Anka, Delores & Alyssa strains. Canfiber is counting on
US Congress federally legalized hemp with the Dec. 12 passage of the 2018 Farm Bill, opening a market that Brightfield Group estimates will reach $22 billion by 2022. The $867 billion agriculture law cleared the Senate Dec. 11 with a 87-13 vote before gaining approval in the House Dec. 12 with a 369-47 vote. The
It has been over 7 months since PAMI submitted a proposal on Canfiber’s behalf to develop a double-cut windrower capable of producing two separate windrows of tops & stalks. PAMI has extensive experience in agricultural equipment & are the only outfit that has the necessary flax baler Canfiber needs to have bales feed its RD
Canfiber is pleased to be able to announce that it has received confirmation from two growers to allow us to take samples of their crop to evaluate on our ribbon decorticator system. Through many twists & turns, we have been able to address each issue as it arose & are very excited to show the
The original project had the word hemp in it, but after being denied by Kickstarter all references to hemp were removed & the project re-submitted. Unfortunately they are sticking to their guns. Preview project here; https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/rd-pilot/2017172767?ref=535669&token=2b7a06a1
Health Canada- ‘We are pleased to inform you that regulations supporting the Cannabis Act have now been approved and will come into force on the same day as the Cannabis Act. When the Cannabis Act and its regulations come into force, cannabis will be removed from Schedule II of the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (CDSA).
Patrick Harrap, Managing Director & founder of ribbon decortication will be attending this year’s CHTA hemp conference to be held in sunny UBC in Vancouver, BC to speak about ribbon decortication & what it means for the future market of high-quality technical fibers. Having only spoken publicly once previously, he is becoming more & more
