All hemp&love garments have been designed and produced 100% in Europe in an ethical way. In addition, some of their garments are designed and produced locally, in a workshop in Barcelona.
The main fibre for the creation of hemp&love garments is hemp, one of the most versatile plants known to mankind.
Hemp is a plant with incredible benefits for us and for the environment.
It uses very little water
No need for pesticides or herbicides
It has a negative carbon footprint on the environment, i.e. for every tonne of hemp produced, 1.63 tonnes of CO2 is removed from the air.
It has a short growing cycle
Regenerates the subsoil, i.e. naturally removes heavy metals and helps repair damaged agricultural soils by reversing the effects of compaction and erosion
Improves biodiversity
It can be used as a raw material in the production of more than 50,000 products and is useful for a multitude of industrial applications, and can replace petroleum in almost all its applications.
It is for all this and more that hemp&love is committed to hemp.
Their garments are composed of hemp fibre, mixed with fibres such as recycled or organic cotton, recycled polyester or recycled PET, and elastane, thus creating products of the highest quality.

Hemp fabric is compostable and biodegradable, decomposing in only 4 years, unlike plastic which takes between 100 and 1000 years.
However, some of hemp&love’s garments contain hemp mixed with other materials, which makes them difficult to recycle.
Even so, hemp&love makes efforts to raise awareness so that its garments last for a long time in your wardrobe and are not thrown away.
hemp&love designs and produces its garments locally, in a workshop in Barcelona. Although some of its garments are also produced in other workshops in Europe.
hemp&love scores well in transparency. The brand provides information on the materials they use to manufacture their garments. They have even calculated and published the CO2 captured from the atmosphere for each garment produced.
Àngels, Arnau, Joan Marc and Esaú are entrepreneurs by nature. Their different paths led them to discover the many options offered by hemp and after several business attempts they decided to merge the properties of hemp with an ethical and sustainable company, thus creating hemp&love: a project with heart, soul and purpose.
They want to transform the textile industry to make it greener; and together with hemp, creating top quality hemp products, always in an ethical, conscious and sustainable way, they are going to achieve it.
Animal welfare
hemp&love garments are free of animal-derived raw materials.
Slow fashion and Longevity
Due to its antimicrobial properties, hemp is one of the strongest and most resistant natural fibres. The plant structure of hemp fibre gives fabrics very versatile properties, being light, flexible and highly resistant to adverse effects.
Moreover, being a porous fibre, hemp fabric favours breathability and ventilation, and facilitates self-regulation of body temperature, offering a warm sensation in winter and cool in summer, so that you can wear your hemp&love garments at any time of the year.
Are you looking for clothes with a simple and minimalist style? In hemp&love you will find clothes for everyday wear, made with the incredible hemp fabric, very soft and pleasant, that will surprise you.
