From waste to value
Biochar has the potential to remove gigatonnes of carbon from the atmosphere.
Our model alone could remove one gigatonne by 2040.
Boost your crops with high-quality biochar
We turn agricultural residues into premium biochar, ideal for large-scale farming. By using bottom-of-the-chain biomass, we convert what would be waste into something valuable for your soil — and the planet.

Biochar is a stable, carbon-rich form of charcoal created by the pyrolysis of waste biomass residues. It has many use cases, with the most popular being as a soil amendment to improve fertility and permanently remove CO2.
Biochar production built for scale
Our unique pyrolysis machines ensure that the biochar you receive is consistent and high-quality. They are compact but powerful, housed in a 40-foot container with a design that allows easy scaling to match our biomass resources. Every machine is built for efficiency for precise control, minimum downtime, and maximum biochar output.
Grow more with us
Our biochar is proven solution for better yields. In drought-prone areas, our biochar has doubled soybean yields and reduced losses by 60%.
Partner with us and see how your soil can become more productive, even in challenging conditions.
We work with local partners to ensure the benefits of our biochar production flow back into the communities where we operate. Our commercial sites are locally owned, managed, and operated.

Unlocking the power of biochar
Increasing the crop yields
When biochar is used as a soil amendment, it stimulates soil fertility and improves soil quality by increasing soil pH, increasing the ability to retain moisture, attracting more useful fungi and other microbes, improving the ability of cation exchange, and preserving the nutrients in the soil.
Restoring degraded lands to make them arable
Biochar reduces soil density, increases soil aeration, enhances soil organic carbon and helps reclaim degraded soils. Biochar is also known to work best in semi-arid and arid soils, thus making it the ideal soil additive to remediate these soils.
Aiding afforestation and reforestation
Biochar can also be used in afforestation and reforestation projects to help increase tree growth, while reducing the need for additional soil growth supplements and water requirements. Due to its benefits, it also creates the possibility to grow forests in areas where it was earlier not possible, thereby helping increase the earth’s tree cover.
Biochar can be used by the construction industry for . . .
Concrete
MASH is working to develop a novel concrete solution with a reduced carbon footprint and added co-benefits.
Bricks and Blocks
MASH has been collaborating with leading manufacturers of building materials to advance its ongoing R&D efforts in this area and to develop an eco-friendly alternative to traditional clay bricks.
Road construction
MASH has the unique ability to use a mixture of bio-oil and biochar to develop a high quality bitumen alternative for road construction.
