black. but green.

We build our solutions on biochar from waste biomass that locks 3 kg of CO2 per kg of material.

Combined with plastics, the natural black filler helps decarbonise supply chains while enhancing product quality.

Reach your sustainability & financial targets, ensure legal compliance, and lead innovation with charly.

our services

charly designs your carbon-negative materials, circular products and cost-effective business models​

charly material

We explore strategies and possible reuse options for your own or external raw materials, develop carbon-negative materials that fit your use case, do standardised material testing, and help build scalable supply chains.

charly product

We develop creative concepts for high-quality durable or reusable circular products, help you launch a pilot series, check the economics, and support you in scaling production for a regular product series.

charly footprint

We calculate the final material footprint, help design circular business models, support with certified additional carbon removal, and help you communicate your sustainability success story to shareholders and the public.

why biochar

biochar is the natural solution to replace plastics, remove CO2 emissions, and enhance material features

0 %

natural

  • based on waste biomass from forestry, agriculture or industry
  • through pyrolysis, the CO2 inside the biomass is locked in the biochar as permanent carbon

local

  • a growing supply base with a wide variety of suitable input biomass
  • high scaling potential, independent from global supply chains

circular

  • best used in long-life, durable and reusable products for industry & commerce
  • remains stable during recycling and is recarbonisable
0

CO2 eq/kg per kg of final composite

carbon-negative

  • each kg of biochar removes 3 kg of CO2
  • combined with recycled plastics, the carbon footprint can be as low as -1.25 CO2 eq/kg per kg material

replaces fossil polymers​

  • avoids the use of fossil fuel-based plastics by up to 50%
  • up to 3.5 CO2 eq/kg lower emissions compared to virgin plastics
0 %

cost compared to carbon-negative bio plastics

cost-effective

  • lowest cost to lock CO2 inside a material (carbon removal)
  • works like a mineral filler for many polymers and other materials

better materials

  • black, non-toxic, odourless colourant for elegant products
  • as an engineered filler it creates highly stable, lightweight, high temperature and UV resistance materials

boosts recycled plastics

  • upgrades features and look of recycled plastics (PCR / PIR)
  • supports a 100% "waste"-based economy
