Cheers A: Hi Satbir! Thanks for the question. We will be announcing investor perks soon. Stay tuned! - Q: I would appreciate it if you could assist me with a few questions: (1) How does your price for Hempwool compare to the price of fiberglass insulation at the present time? (2) How does your cost to manufacture Hempwool compare to the cost of manufacturing fiberglass insulation ... A: Hi Jeffrey, thanks for your interest and the great questions. I will answer them here. Q: How does your price for Hempwool compare to the price of fiberglass insulation at the present time? A: HempWool is about 2x the cost of fiberglass at current time, however with US manufacturing we intend to bring the cost to within 20 to 30% of fiberglass, and be price competitive with RockWool. Q: How does your cost to manufacture Hempwool compare to the cost of manufacturing fiberglass insulation (to t... - Q: How does the weight and R-value and R-value/KG compare to traditional and other alternative insulation? What is the cost per square foot per R-value compared to fiberglass batt, mineral wool and foam board? A: Hi Matt! Thanks for your questions and interest in Hempitecture. The weight is higher than fiberglass, it's a denser material. A better comparison would be mineral wool. Our R Values are comparable to fiberglass currently, and through a research grant from Idaho Department of Commerce for $206k, we will be working with the University of Idaho and their Renewable Resources Laboratory to value add to HempWool products to meet or exceed all relevant codes. The cost per square foot of HempWool cu... - Q: What is the cost difference compared to fiberglass? Is it more expensive to produce and therefore more expensive at retail? Would you consider being bought out by major players in this industry like Owens Corning? What or who is your target market to sell to and how do you pla... A: Hi Marques. You bring up some great questions here. We're about 2x the cost of fiberglass currently but we will be working to bring our costs to within 20 to 30% price premium over fiberglass. We are considering a few possible exit strategies to provide value to shareholders. One of which would be acquisition by huge players like Owens Corning. Alternatively, we'd consider an IPO. Our target market is the residential construction sector. We will also be targeting commercial, large scale contr... - Q: How much resistance to fire does Hempwool have if any? A: Hi John. When we are producing HempWool in the US in our pilot manufacturing facility, we will be incorporating fire resistive treatments to the fiber that are inline with no VOC, no toxicity. We are currently working with University of Idaho and soon to be working with the Department of Energy via Oak Ridge National Laboratory to further evaluate the ideal fire resistive treatments that meet our healthy and sustainable goals.
