Activated charcoal

What is Biochar?

Biochar is a stable, carbon-rich material made by heating organic matter, like plant residues or agricultural waste, in a low-oxygen environment through a process called pyrolysis. This ancient technique has been used by indigenous peoples for centuries. It turns biomass into a charcoal-like substance that locks away carbon for hundreds or thousands of years. When added to soil, biochar improves fertility by boosting nutrient retention, water holding capacity, and microbial activity. This leads to healthier crops and less need for fertilizers. It also fights climate change by sequestering CO₂, filtering pollutants, and supporting regenerative agriculture, all while producing renewable energy as a byproduct.

Biochar in Thailand

In Thailand, biochar production is picking up as a simple way to manage abundant agricultural wastes like rice husks, bamboo scraps, and rubberwood. It turns them into useful resources instead of burning them, which cuts down on air pollution and methane emissions. Projects in areas like Chiang Mai, Nan, and Udon Thani focus on improving soil for rice fields and bamboo farms. Trials show yields increasing by 20 to 30 percent, along with carbon credits for climate efforts. This local approach boosts rural economies, creates jobs, and fits with global sustainability through ties with international partners.

From Soil to Climate: A Systemic Solution

The climate crisis also begins beneath our feet. Storing carbon, improving water retention, feeding microbial life—biochar works silently, but profoundly.

Our biochar is designed to restore agricultural fertility while delivering a direct solution to carbon reduction.
Locally made from biomass waste, it closes the loop between production, recycling, farming, and regeneration. Simple, circular, and incredibly powerful.
