TRENT UNIVERSITY FORENSIC CRIME SCENE FACILITY
Ontario, Canada — A completed commercial institutional build demonstrating the engineered wall block system’s suitability for demanding, high-specification construction at scale. Built to meet rigorous institutional standards with hempcrete blocks throughout the exterior wall system.

Trent’s Forensic Crime Scene Facility combines Trent’s renowned forensics leadership with its reputation as one of Canada’s top environmental teaching and research universities. The Forensic Facility aims to be Canada’s first zero-carbon building certified by the International Living Future Institute. It is green from the ground up, made of environmentally friendly construction materials and energy sources.
1,089
Blocks Used
The Trent University Forensic Crime Scene Facility was constructed using 1,089 JBF hempcrete blocks throughout its exterior wall system — demonstrating the block system's capability at institutional scale, in a high-specification environment where performance standards are non-negotiable.

THE HARMLESS HOME
British Columbia, Canada — Built with JBF hempcrete blocks throughout the exterior walls, the Harmless Home set out to achieve carbon net-zero with energy efficiency and indoor air quality as top priorities. Completed in late 2018.
A University of Victoria Master’s thesis published in 2022 evaluated the home post-occupancy. The conclusion: “The exterior wall had a higher R-value than predicted in the building energy modelling — the Harmless Home and JBF performed well across all performance categories including hygrothermal performance and life cycle assessment.”

The Harmless Home was constructed using 3,000 JBF hempcrete blocks throughout its exterior wall system — one of the first residential applications of the patented block system in North America, and a proof of concept for carbon net-zero hempcrete construction at scale.
R40+
Blocks Used
Post-occupancy testing found the exterior wall delivered a higher R-value than predicted in the original building energy modelling — a result documented in a University of Victoria Master's thesis and one of the most significant findings of the independent evaluation.
Net-Zero
Carbon Target — Achieved
The Harmless Home was designed to achieve carbon net-zero — and did. The University of Victoria evaluation concluded that the home and the JBF wall system performed well across all categories including hygrothermal performance and life cycle assessment.
