Who We Are
HempFabricLab is a one-stop shop designers, creators and exporters to get their fix of sustainable fabrics. The idea for HFL came about because we saw a growing need for eco-friendly fabrics and lack of easy accessibility to them. Seeing that we were already working with one of nature’s best offering- Hemp, we decided that more people should get to experience it too.
Our Story

BOHECO is an agro-based enterprise re-imagining the future of Indian agriculture and sustainable living with hemp as its lens.

Environmental Impact
Hemp has numerous environmental benefits that promote sustainability: The hemp plant grows like weed, eliminating the need for most pesticides, herbicides, fungicides and thriving on less water than most crops. Because of its resiliency, it has also been flagged as a natural way to clean up soil pollution. Hemp actually absorbs carbon dioxide while it grows through natural photosynthesis, making it carbon negative from the get-go.
