Building scalable carbon removal infrastructure.

BCHAR is a Swiss biochar technology company on a mission to make biochar carbon removal accessible, transparent, and scalable. We are building the infrastructure to take biochar from individual projects toward a global carbon removal solution at gigatonne scale, creating lasting value for the climate, businesses, and communities.

Driven by innovation. Grounded in science.

BCHAR’s founders met at ETH Zurich, where our engineering work earned innovation awards at the SpaceX Hyperloop and Not-a-Boring competitions. We later turned that engineering mindset toward carbon removal, developing our first pyrolysis reactor before moving into real-world deployment in Thailand.

That field experience gave us first-hand insight into what industrial biochar technology needs to deliver: reliability, automation, and ease of operation. It still shapes how we design and build today.

Our team combines engineering, entrepreneurship, climate expertise, and scientific rigor with an innovative spirit and a global outlook. We test in the real world, learn from data, and turn those insights into practical solutions. Ultimately, we believe technology and sustainability can work hand in hand to create meaningful climate impact at a global scale and help build a more sustainable, carbon-neutral future.

Guided by pioneers who shaped the carbon market.

Our advisors bring more than 100 years of combined experience across carbon markets, climate entrepreneurship, and company building. Among them are South Pole co-founders and experienced carbon market entrepreneurs who have built and scaled leading climate businesses. Together, they bring deep market knowledge, strategic perspective, and extensive operational experience to BCHAR.
