What We Do

We transform waste biomass into biochar and apply it in our high-performance, carbon-negative concrete through our proprietary process.

Our Innovation Process

Circular construction materials

Biomass Feedstock

We utilise waste and/or invasive biomass as our feedstocks. These are sustainably harvested through community-based organisations, fully compliant with local & national regulations. 

sustainable building materials

Carbon Removal

Our materials can achieve net-negative carbon emissions, actively removing CO₂ from the atmosphere through utilisation in the built environment.

pyrolysis

Pyrolysis

Our controlled pyrolysis systems produce high-quality biochar while minimising emissions and maximising carbon sequestration.

enginering

Verification & Testing

We quantify and certify carbon removal through trusted methodologies and rigorous testing protocols.

carbon negative concrete mixes

Concrete Integration

We integrate biochar into engineered concrete mix designs, reducing cement content while improving performance.

Quality Assurance

Every batch meets structural standards while maintaining environmental benefits and carbon-neutral or negative properties.

Measurable Impact

Our commitment to transparency means every claim is backed by data.

Beyond Carbon:
Co-Benefits

Circular Economy

We turn invasive Prosopis biomass into durable building products, closing waste loops and creating value from a problem resource.

Local Manufacturing

Blocks are produced in Kenya using our own proprietary biochar-concrete process, strengthening domestic supply chains for affordable housing and sustainable development.

Landscape Restoration

Harvesting invasive trees supports regeneration of rangelands, restoring grassland access and indigenous biodiversity for communities in semi-arid-to-arid regions.

Local Employment

Our community harvesting programme will generate sustainable incomes, prioritising women and youth through local CBOs. Our concrete production facilities provide employment opportunities for local engineering talent.
