How is it that this special tent fabric made from organic cotton and hemp is so environmentally friendly?

First of all, the manufacturer: TenCate is the world's best tent fabric weaver in terms of constant and consistent premium quality. You now have a truly sustainable tent fabric with minimal impact on the environment.
TenCate EcoHemp tent canvas is woven in accordance with the strict regulations of the Organic Content Standard (OCS) and the Global Recycling Standard (GRS). This extremely environmentally friendly tent fabric is strong, breathable, rainwaterproof, rot-proof and fungus-resistant. It is particularly suitable for pyramid and tunnel tents, trailer tents and glamping tents.
The hemp content has special properties. Hemp grows under particularly easy conditions. It requires little water during growth and further processing and needs little or no plant protection. In addition, it has similar breathable and moisture-regulating properties as cotton. An additive is needed to make the fabric particularly strong. Polyester is the most commonly used raw material in the camping world because it is easy to produce and very strong in relation to its weight. In order to reduce the global impact of the use of polyester, more and more recycled polyester is being used. In the meantime, a yarn made from recycled plastic has been developed using old fishing nets, for example. These are of such good quality that they can also be used as tent material. By using recycled polyester, the environment is relieved and the hemp fabric is strengthened to enable the tents to last for a long time.
Finally, a limited amount of organic cotton is added. This gives you the ideal mix of comfort, durability and quality. Organic cotton is grown entirely organically, using only natural pesticides.
The use of these raw materials in TenCate EcoHemp tent canvas has led to a significant reduction in the carbon footprint, lower energy costs and savings in water consumption throughout the production process.
