BIOCHAR
Proven. Affordable.
Durable carbon removal.
From ancient Amazonian soils to modern climate infrastructure. Biochar locks carbon away for centuries — and on the way there it restores the ground it came from and pays the people who farm it.
Centuries ago, Indigenous communities in the Amazon enriched poor soils with charred organic matter, creating fertile terra preta that still thrives today. Nobody was counting tonnes of CO₂ — they were trying to grow food on ground that would not cooperate.
That practice is the foundation of modern biochar. What changed is the measurement around it: the same charred carbon, now characterised in a lab, tracked to a registry and priced.
What is Biochar?
A carbon-rich material produced by heating biomass — crop residues from agriculture, or wood waste — in a low-oxygen process called pyrolysis. Unlike ordinary charcoal, biochar is made for environmental and agricultural use: it locks carbon into solid form instead of releasing it as CO₂.

THE ORIGIN STORY
WASTE TO WEALTH
The carbon removal streamline
Sustainable feedstock sourcing
For true carbon removal the biomass must meet the additionality criteria — the material (palm EFB, rice husks, forestry residues) would otherwise have rotted or been burned, releasing CO₂ and methane.
Our collection process emphasises traceability and ecological balance. We only gather residues that are not required for local soil health, so the surrounding ecosystem stays net-positive rather than quietly stripped to feed a kiln.

Asia-Pacific CAGR, fastest globally
Biochar has become the backbone of the carbon removal industry, bought at scale by Google and Microsoft among others. Asia-Pacific is the fastest-growing region — abundant agricultural residues, expanding pyrolysis capacity — and Reclimate is building the projects to meet it.
Asia-Pacific is where
the supply has to come from.
