Science-led, scalable solutions for global and local climate challenges
As the R&D subsidiary of Pure DC group, we focus on three interconnected challenges:
Advancing climate adaption and resilience
Our nature-based approaches support communities in adapting to the realities of climate change.
Decarbonising digital infrastructure
We create decarbonisation solutions that help our digital infrastructure achieve net zero.
Producing high-quality carbon removal credits
Our removal projects use biochar to permanently remove carbon from atmosphere.
We bring to life profitable environmental projects through science, systems thinking and practical delivery with biochar production, carbon removal, nature-based urban regeneration, and climate-resilient forestry.
Our team includes experts in plant science, engineering, and environmental management, all committed to delivering localised solutions with measurable climate, community and commercial impact through investable long-term projects.
60%
Using a biochar-mixed compost can reduce the need for water by 60%
Our solutions
How we’re helping to create a healthier earth
Our carbon credits
We produce and deliver high integrity biochar carbon credits that sequester atmospheric carbon.
Our biochar
Created through pyrolysis, and utilising waste feedstock, we create a product with multiple uses - from agriculture to construction.
Our trees
Through ForestFactory®, we create climate resilient trees with increased survivability, produced at scale, and ready for delivery on time and in full.
Technical capability for real-world deployment
We bring together deep scientific and engineering expertise - from in house plant scientists and deep process chemical engineers, to technical experts in the decarbonisation of digital infrastructure and nature-based solutions. This breadth of knowledge allows us to tackle challenges from multiple angles. Whether it’s optimising biochar through precision pyrolysis or advancing innovations in forestry practices, we help partners, planners and developers deliver scalable, high-impact solutions to their most complex challenges.
Our work is grounded in the insights of our Scientific Advisory Council - a global network of leading experts who apply cutting-edge science to help us design geo-specific climate solutions with real-world impact.
Current projects
The UK’s largest biochar production facility, creating high quality biochar out of waste feedstock and generating high integrity carbon credits.
Supporting urban regeneration through the creation of three ‘Tiny Forests’ in Barnet, North London, using trees from our ForestFactory®
We’re working with partners in West Papua to test how biochar can revive degraded land for rice farming and reduce pressure on forests.
Building a scaled biochar market
Biochar is one of the most promising carbon removal solutions available today. The technology is proven and ready to deploy, but the fragmented, small-scale nature of current projects threaten to stall its full potential. To scale and keep pace with the growing market, the biochar industry requires mainstream investment.
That’s why we’ve developed The Biochar Blueprint: A Developers Guide to Scale, a comprehensive guide for developers looking to attract investment and bring scale to their operations. It addresses current barriers developers face head on, supporting the transition to a more professional, scaled and de-risked market for biochar – turning it into a reliable, investable solution.
