personal comment:

about the banner picture -the banner picture shows our first original object. It was made by the artist IXTOK , who is an artist of aztecan origin. We met here in Vienna before he left to Mexico, where he also (and I believe currently) lives. I respect him and see him as an artist, because that just means that he is expressing himself in different ways. Ways I like. He is also a dancer of aztecan rituals and he gives me such a positive vibe, when I am around him.And I like some of the things he is creating. The jewelery piece he has made for me, was much more beautiful as I have ever expected.One of my friends here in Austria, who is from Chile told me (Vienna is not that big), that latin people also see him, as he said "like a schamen".I don..t know, whether it is true or not, but it sounds good. Und wenns nix schad....:-)Now, we duplicate his original by machine, fill the pieces with his message of environmental awareness and love and create the first collection of our "Hempstone Arts" .IXTOK whom our first collection is decided, is a true environmentalist and world lover. He is positive, and he created the first jewerlery piece, more or less out of his feeling, because he did not know exactly how a hemp leaf does look like :-)But for me it is wonderful. I still look at the orignal piece every day and I am loving it.
I am loving it.

General:
Fossil energy carrier and raw materials built in the course of the technical and industrial development of our societies a basic foundation.
Today we see with increasing clarity the borders of this development and the danger which can arise through the massively raising use of resources.
The research shows, that mainly renewable resources will take a deciding role I in the future.
We, a team of motivated people, are in general engaged into the processing of "plastics-alternative" materials.
Materials based on renewable resources have, except of their unlimited liability, also another specialty: They are bio-degradable.
Even today there are biological compounds based on starch, wood, flax, hemp, etc., existing, which are beyond development stage, (as. ABOFORM, BIOPOL, FASAL,...) and by processing of these and other compounds, we want to show actively that is it possible almost today:
Looks like "plastics" - feels like "plastics" - but is not "plastics". It is pure biological. That way.
Although renewable resources offer a lot of different chances and possibilities for use, they are less implemented.
Our main goal is on the one hand to produce products made out of different biological compounds, to develop new, innovative techniques or rather utilization concepts.
On the other hand we - E.OBI, A.OBI, N. SCHMIDT, E. WEGHAUPT - also want to build an artistic platform, a label. We want to use our products to transport a message of "active environmental protection, freedom, imagination and the believe, that we can make everything, if we really want to".
Whether our future will be like a wonderful dream or horrible like a scary nightmare, mainly depends on ourselves.
It depends on the energy we spent.
Almost everything that surrounds us, is the proof for that.
Electric light, communication over unbelievable distances, or the teleportation of a light particle (Prof. Zeilinger/Austria), etc.,....
These things exist and are possible only because of one reason:
Because we want them to exist!
There are almost no boundaries set. We can actually do whatever we like to.
So lets work toghether for creating our best possible future!
Have you ever thought about what we could make out of hemp?
Certainly you have heard too, that we could make almost everything out of this renewable resource.
From paper to Henry Ford..s legendary hemp car.
We have our own visions and we..re working on their realization.
Especially because of the hemps symbolic power , we..ve chosen our first product to be the symbol itself. A hemp leaf made out of pure hemp. Without any chemical additves or binder.
Incomparable. Pure natural.
We define it as a symbol for environmental awareness, freedom, phantasie and that we can do everything, if we really want to.
Of course jewellery is just the beginning.
We want to create something unique, something noble and inspiring out of this special tree.
For everybody who sees hemp as something special.
-e.obi-
Please take a look at these prototypes.
Don..t look at design or color. The final peaces will be much more beautiful.
In the end every sinlge vein can be shown.
Even the plate is made out of hemp.
Note: We dont want to invite anyone to use hemp as a drug.
Think and decide for yourself!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:



Interesting people from all over the world, a Business Angel ....

more about e.obi:


What we could make out of hemp –

Many books have been written about it, and wonderful hemp products have been created. From Henry Ford's legendary hemp car to hemp paper.

Some say that we could make almost everything out of it.

We, a young, energetic team which is driven by passion, work on the realization of our own visions.

Many people already know that there is paper or clothes out of this unique plant, but what we do is something completely different.
We will create unique collections in different areas out of "HEMPSTONE", which is a patented material (we are not the patent owners, we just developed a technique to process the material) made out of hemp , and process it in a special way.
Without chemical additives or binder.
Pure natural .

By creating the most noble, inspiring and unique products out of the hemp tree ever , we want to add another aspect of processing materials which are made out of regrowing plants.

The product range we see from jewellery, music instruments like drums or guitars, to buttons for hemp clothes, cases up to even furniture.
It just depends on the imagination.

Why we do it? – because for us this regrowing plant is something special.

What we can make out of hemp surely depends on our imagination.

We, the e.obi team, want to create the most noble and inspiring products you have ever seen out of it.

Our friend and co-developer of the material, Martin Ernegg supports us since the beginning actively and with advice.
He is still driven by his own visions, and what he created out of hemp still makes us speechless sometimes and he has all of our respect. Like Robert Bramsteidl and the no longer living Host Döpfer have.

Martin recently runs a production plant in Australia (he is half Australian) and we wish him the best for it. We are convinced that he will achieve his goals.

But we are living and working in Europe, we have most of our network here and we will produce our products here and distribute them worldwide.

"Hempstone" is a sample and possibility. It is a basic material. Like wood, plastics or others. Except that it's pure natural .
What we can make out of it?
Some people can imagine many things and some none.

The fact, that Zellform, the developing company of "Hempstone" from Austria – (Martin Ernegg, Robert Bramsteidl and Horst Döpfner) finally could not survive, maybe also because they could not find the right support, makes me really sad. If you realize that there are books published from people talking about what we could make out of hemp.

Back then, I was looking for a material based on hemp which can be processed like "common" plastics. When I met the Zellformers first in 1996 or 97, I thought I could not use the material because it was different. But quickly I realized how I could use it and since then I am faszinated by this material. Because it is breathtaking. At least for a true hemp lover.

But I did..nt and I still do not have the needed financial possibilities to realize my visions completely. Since then of course many things happened and meanwhile I have created some wonderful hemp objects which no one else in the world owns, and I have to say that it makes me a bit proud.

Today I have very good possibilities and a network of friends and partners, but we still urgently need support. Basically a financial one. Because we already are creative and intelligent ourselves :-) And as I said driven by passion.

Although we are hemp lovers in every way, we don't see making a statement about the legalization of hemp as a natural stimulant as our main goal, but pointing out on hemp as a regrowing plant which can be very useful. Many people have for different reasons a relationship to this special plant.

Whether the plant has a spiritual-, ecological- or another meaning to you, we see as something private.

There is a good reason to like hemp anyway. Because this plant is unique. It..s useful like no other.

e.obi - Emanuel OBI, Alexander OBI, Norbert SCHMID and Erich WEGHAUPT - don.t want to talk about, what we could make out of hemp. We want to be active.
Lets make something noble and unique out of it!!

For many years now we are working on producing the most wonderful jewelery collection ever made out of hemp . Incomparable.

We want to (and already do) cooperate with artists, designers, technicans, etc,.. to create a label, make art but also develope useful tools, and express what we have to say.

For everybody who sees hemp as something special. And everybody who loves our mother nature like we do.

We are into love and peace and hopefully our products, especially our first product, the symbol itself, will express that.

If there is a nature- and hemp lover with some money, who is interested in investing into unique, wonderful and different hemp products, then please contact us.
The support would come right on time:-)
