Bio Products
Insulated panels, built from what would have gone to waste.
Earthwise Bio Products manufactures insulated building panels reinforced with recycled glass rebar helping to reduce lumber, alongside block manufacturing and product distribution — all proven together at our Northern California facility.
The core material? Hemp.
A 100% renewable resource
Healthy by Design
Zero VOCs, zero off-gassing
Hemp-based insulation contains no volatile organic compounds, so indoor air stays clean from the day a home is built
Naturally mold- and pest- resistant
Hemp resists mold, mildew, and pests on its own, without the added chemical
treatments conventional insulation relies on
Breathable, moisture-regulating walls
Hemp walls regulate humidity naturally, reducing the trapped moisture that drives most indoor air quality and mold problems
Healthier for the people that live there
No synthetic insulation, no formaldehyde-based binders — non-toxic from the framing out
Class A fire rating
Tests well beyond typical wall-assembly fire ratings, Class A (ASTM E84), and a direct match for
the wildfire-resilient construction demand driving this market.
Earthwise Bio Products runs panel manufacturing, block manufacturing, and product distribution together, providing customers with product at scale.

Planned facility footprint at full scale
A second production line built into the same facility from day one, sharing core equipment and infrastructure with panel manufacturing while running its own dedicated equipment and inventory.
Block Manufacturing
Precast insulated panels reinforced with recycled glass rebar in a wood frame, engineered for the healthy-home building market. The raw material is also sold directly, so builders can cast panels in place on their own sites.
Manufactured Panels
Finished panels, block, and raw material move out through our own supply and distribution operation — built to serve builders and custom-home buyers directly from a single Northern California facility.
Product Supply & Distribution
Recycled glass rebar reduces lumber usage
The Innovation
Every panel is reinforced with recycled glass rebar engineered to match the tensile strength of traditional steel rebar -- an alternative choice that also happens to be a regenerative one.
Built from a waste product
Recycled glass is a waste stream diverted from landfill, resulting in another circular economy story.
Less lumber, fewer trees cut
Reducing lumber from the panel structure removes a major input tied to deforestation from the supply chain entirely.
Matches steel tensile strength
Recycled glass rebar is engineered to perform at the same tensile strength as traditional steel reinforcing bar,
without deteriorating.
The Facility
Humboldt, California
Our prototype facility sits in Humboldt County — a region with a long history in timber and wood-products manufacturing, deep-water port access at Humboldt Bay, and a growing demand for low-toxin, high-performance homes.
