European Industrial Hemp Association (EIHA)

The European Industrial Hemp Association (EIHA) represents the common interests of hemp farmers, producers and traders working with hemp fibres, shives, seeds, leaves and cannabinoids. Our main task is to serve, protect and represent the hemp sector in the EU and international policy-making.

EIHA covers different areas for the application of hemp, namely its use for construction materials, textiles, plastics, bio-composites, cosmetics, feed, food and food supplements. Our network encompasses operators from 25 EU Member States and 12 non-EU countries, including members in North America and the Asia Pacific. In total, EIHA acts on behalf of more than 250 members that represent the entire industrial hemp production chain, from seed to shelf.
