A softer future for everyday essentials.

HempSoft is FlexiFib’s future programme exploring whether hemp fibres can be developed into useful tissue and household paper products. It is a research direction, not a product available to buy.

What must be researched before launch

  • Fibre processing

    Can hemp fibres be processed to the required softness, strength and consistency?

  • Product performance

    Absorbency, wet strength, dust and lint, and user comfort must all be validated.

  • Manufacturing route

    Identify suitable pulping, converting and finishing processes and partners.

  • End-of-life evidence

    We won’t assume biodegradability or compostability without evidence for the finished product.

  • Commercial economics

    Cost, yield, scale and what customers are willing to pay must support a viable product.

Why HempSoft matters to the wider FlexiFib platform

HempSoft shows that FlexiFib’s long-term opportunity is broader than one toothbrush. The same material strategy can be explored across several high-frequency everyday product categories — for consumers and for business customers.
