Vireo
Vireo is the plant-based material produced by Hemp Bio and primarily made from an exceptional crop with multifaceted potential, hemp.
Offering distinctive aesthetic, functional excellence, and creative freedom with more than 70% hemp content and at a reduced footprint on the environment, Vireo provides groundbreaking opportunities for fashion and design brands seeking an eco-conscious material.
A patented process
Vireo unites the very latest technologies, with long-forgotten craft skills creating a new, patented process. Harvested in Northern and Central France, after multiple carding, the hemp for Vireo is sent to Italy to be dyed and treated with the partly bio-based polyurethane coating.
A unique composition
Vireo is made with more than 70% hemp fibres. Moreover, it is topped by an anti-scratch layer – partly made of bio-based polyurethane. Thanks to this top layer, it offers a tactile patina, can be coloured, patterned, and embossed in virtually infinite ways.
