A Revolution In Sustainable Construction.

Living Canvas™ SIPs are hempcrete Structural Insulated Panels—sustainably grown, locally sourced, and proudly 100% Australian made.

Living Canvas™ products grant building projects access to environmentally responsible materials, decreasing environmental impact, reducing project time, ongoing maintenance and operation costs and lowering ongoing carbon emissions well after the keys have been handed over.

Why Hemp?

Building in harmony with future ideals.

Living Canvas™ panels make construction more sustainable, time-efficient, and cost-effective. Renowned for its outstanding performance and health benefits, hempcrete remains one of the only truly carbon-negative building solutions available today.

At Otetto, we are specialists in hemp-based construction—pioneering new possibilities in building through this intelligent, future-forward material.

A Contemporary Solution

With Living Canvas™, the benefits include temperature regulation, reduced energy consumption, high performance insulation and resistance to fire, mould and termites – all from a natural fibre.

Our SIPs system is made entirely from Australian-grown hemp. Designed for quick installation, and delivered to site- providing immediate benefits reducing construction time and therefore cost.

We’re proud to offer a Structural Insulated Panel that outperforms other systems and solutions currently on the market.

Roof panels: Enhance energy efficiency and thermal performance, ensuring a comfortable interior environment.

Walling SIP system: Superior insulation, soundproofing, and protection against moisture and condensation build-up.

Floor panels: A completed high-performing system includes the use of floor cassettes to ensure optimal structural integrity, thermal efficiency, and ease of installation.

Footings: Earth-friendly foundations designed to minimise environmental impact by avoiding the use of concrete.

Customisable

By involving us in the initial design phases, we can collaborate with you to craft Living Canvas Panels tailored to your design requirements, resulting in a truly distinctive home design.

Quick installation

The combination of prefabrication, modular design, integrated crane anchor system and experienced installation teams makes Living Canvas panels quick and efficient to install, saving time and labour costs.

High-performance insulation

Living Canvas panels offer high-performance insulation by leveraging the performance of hemp, low thermal conductivity, and moisture regulation capabilities, making them an ideal choice for energy-efficient and sustainable building projects.

Pest and fire resistant

Living Canvas panels, with their alkaline environment, breathability, hygroscopic properties, and non-toxicity, naturally resist pests and mold, promoting healthier and more environmentally conscious homes.

BAL-rated for bushfire-prone areas

Living Canvas panels are well-suited for bushfire-prone areas due to several key features:

Non-Combustible Materials: The components of Living Canvas panels, such as hempcrete, are non-combustible. This means they do not easily ignite or contribute to the fuel load in the event of a fire, reducing the likelihood of the building catching fire or exacerbating the spread of flames.
Thermal Performance: Living Canvas panels offer excellent thermal insulation properties, helping to regulate internal temperatures and reduce the transfer of heat from external sources. This can help to mitigate the impact of radiant heat from nearby fires, providing added protection to the structure and its occupants.
Durability: Living Canvas panels are known for their durability and resilience, offering resistance to impact, weathering, and deterioration over time. This durability helps structures withstand the intense heat and environmental conditions associated with bushfires, reducing the risk of structural damage or failure.
Compliance with Building Standards: Living Canvas panels are designed and manufactured to comply with relevant building standards and regulations, including those specific to bushfire-prone areas. This ensures that structures built using Living Canvas panels meet or exceed minimum requirements for bushfire resistance, providing peace of mind to homeowners and builders.

Sustainably grown and locally sourced

Living Canvas panels are crafted from 100% Australian-grown hemp. We take pride in collaborating with local hemp farmers, supporting Australian agriculture, and fostering a more sustainable construction sector.

100% Australian made

In addition to the hemp being grown in Australia, our Living Canvas Panels are Australian-manufactured and locally owned.
