GROWING A BETTER TOMORROW WITH BIOCHAR
Terra Verde
At Terra Verde, we are committed to advancing sustainability for a healthier planet and a more resilient future. Through the production of Verdichar™, our premium biochar, we transform agricultural and forestry residues into a powerful solution that mitigates climate change, enriches soil health, and reduces waste. Guided by the principles of the circular economy, we repurpose organic byproducts into valuable resources, closing waste loops and maximizing environmental and economic benefits.
Our work is guided by the belief that environmental stewardship and social responsibility go hand in hand. Through innovative and efficient practices, we repurpose natural waste into products that benefit farmers, ecosystems, and communities. In addition to driving environmental progress, we are proud to create jobs and support economic development in the regions where we operate, fostering stronger and more sustainable local economies.
By improving agricultural productivity, sequestering carbon, and empowering communities, our mission is to create lasting, measurable change for both people and the planet. Together, we’re not just addressing today’s challenges—we’re growing a better tomorrow, with biochar.
How Biochar is Made?
At Terra Verde, we transform agricultural residues and eucalyptus waste, including roots, bark, branches, and other wood byproducts, into biochar. Through pyrolysis, these organic materials are subjected to high heat without oxygen, resulting in the production of biochar along with renewable energy in the form of gases and heat. We harness this energy to power our operations and support local communities with clean electricity or heat, making the entire process both efficient and sustainable.
Why is Biochar Important?
Biochar addresses some of today’s most pressing challenges. It stabilizes carbon from the atmosphere, providing a reliable way to combat climate change. When added to soil, biochar enhances water retention, nutrient availability, and overall fertility, fostering healthier and more productive agricultural systems. The renewable energy generated during its production also helps reduce dependence on fossil fuels, while the use of organic residues minimizes waste and creates valuable byproducts.
“Biochar is a powerful tool that combines waste management, carbon sequestration, and soil improvement into a single solution.”
